Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

Mine seems to have improved over the last few weeks. Think they must have been doing some work recently as I had a day of 30% packetloss and huge latency but after then the general performance has been much improved. Those huge peaks are just me torrenting :p

2 x DOCSIS 1.1. Putting it another way the 267 of us have 2 x 9Mbps between us.

As I mentioned it's sunny and the rugby's been on, people are in the boozer rather than at home torrenting their warez. I'm only at home due to work else I'd be at the boozer too!

This area is due to go DOCSIS 2.0 in November and uplift in December.

Thanks




Latency seems to have increased somewhat over the last few days. I have an engineer coming to lower my downstream power levels which are too high but I have a feeling that the below is due to increased utilisation.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

from experience (my own) power levels do almost nothing to latency, they only seem to affect T3 timeouts and in severe cases disconnections/reboots.

I have 3 attenuators, 3,6,10 db ones. I have played around with my power levels watching performance and I have concluded the effect on it is minimal if any.

Here's mine m8

.




I get some problems with online ps3 gaming, but overall it's pretty good.

(those small packet loss bits were my daughter streaming YouTube videos)

Cheers, that's what my graph was looking like last week, latency seems to have increased over the last few days for some reason.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

I swapped to the other upstream channel on my port.

I now just switched it back again as latency was going through the roof.

Upstream way down but downstream holding up ok.



This happened pretty quickly so I reckon it could be one torrent freak who will hopefully be getting a snotty letter from VM anytime soon.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

latency for first time in ages is now acceptable, but download speeds very all over the place. Upload speed is steady at almost max possible speed about 3mbit/sec. Since I been told my downstream higher utilisation than my upstream I guess this makes sense, and the upstream channels seem very unbalanced which is giving this channel better results then it would be if balanced.

Not great, going to see how the connection is over the next few days..if it's still bad I may cancel under the 28 days policy and move over to Infinity.

How do you swap upstream channels?

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

not easily usually.

my superhub itself can move between channels but it can take dozens of attempts as it tends to connect to the same one most of the time, my vmng300 100% of the time connects to the channel I am on now and as the superhub was connecting to the other I simply swapped the devices. However if I only had the superhub its entirely possible it could have took me an hour or so resetting it trying to get it to swap.
