Definitely your end

try running a ping to bbc.co.uk then one to pingbox1.thinkbroadband.com

[Kymmy]

Weird, 2s average ping to bbc and .5s ping to TBB yet the websites, youtube and various others are all working fine including other protocols like usernet, P2P..etc..

2000ms and 500ms?

[Kymmy]

Yep, never been that high before, graph is still going crazy yet browsing seems unaffected..

[craigj2k12]

Strange. Maybe you're just used to slow browsing on VM?

I think it is prettier when you don't have those ugly spikes :-)

Does Sky Fibre use DLM, I see your line shows a nice dip in minimum latency after an outage and just wondered.

Yeah it does, and that wasnt an outage, just that my DDWRT router has to re-establish a connection. Its to do with the MAC encapsulated routing which makes it take longer to connect, otherwise there would hardly be any packet loss

Its a nice drop though - sub 10ms ping with no jitter

I don't think there's any option for any provider using Openreach FTTC to turn off DLM completely, yet.

Cheers craig/qas, I was just being nosey ,,,,,,I wish I was brave enough to have a go at hacking this rather pants Sagemcom paper weight but it'll just end in tears I know it, and a bricked router probably

[craigj2k12]

you dont have to do anything to the router itself, just type in the number from the sticker on the bottom into a website. No chance of a bricked router
