Ok I'm using windows 7.

Using this...

<buffermode>1</buffermode>

<cachemembuffersize>204288000</cachemembuffersize>

<readbufferfactor>1.5</readbufferfactor>

<curlclienttimeout>45</curlclienttimeout>

</network>

<splash>false</splash>

</advancedsettings>

Buffer doesn't need to be so big.

Not sure on the difference between 1 and 2 but I get good results with 2.

@wingnut771 @cavedog Coreix single thread tests here please gents.

Did you tag me

Test done just now 19:15

@sand_man Did you see Home-Connect removed 1Gbps Vumatel from their website

 

[sand_man]

I did yeah. Thanks. These tests are good reference points for when an isp turns round and says 35Mbps is perfectly normal on a single threaded international download.

Considering your slow international speeds and the insane price of Home-connect on Openserve No way I will ever leave Supersonic for them. Home-Connect is R1808 for 100Mbps Openserve while Supersonic is R1749 for 200Mbps.

Yeah, pulled it only weeks after I subscribed. Apparently there’s a dispute between themselves and vumatel Re pricing. That’s the reason they cited.

So here's the latest 'feedback'....

We've managed to get WIOCC to pick up a couple of small issues, but none has resulted in any noticeable change in performance, for which there are still some ongoing unanswered questions.

I'm digging into packet captures again for insight and will decide from there.

So basically dololo... sigh....

My single threaded performance to Coreix. Must be considered normal for a Home-connect gigabit line seeing as there's no obvious issues on the line.

I'm getting 20MB/s+ with RD download using IDM single download, single thread.

What I have noticed that 2 gigabit routers I have are both ****. Archer D7 taps out at 360mbps local with 5MB/s RD speed, B618 gets 20MB/s+ RD speed but only 250mbps on local test! I'm waiting for a new edgerouterx which I'm confident will speed things up even more.

I still get the same coreix as you tho.

That's very weird. The D7 should manage gigabit throughput with ease..

Yeah, look, single thread performance is pathetic. I've seen better from 100Mbps accounts!! Thankfully IDM allows me to create a false economy! Really have to work it though, 32 connections!! Ridiculous!!

You would think.

 

[sand_man]

You would think.

Do you consistently get 900+ connected direct to the ONT?

 

[wingnut771]

First attempt yes, second about 800, third about 600, then about 450. It's just crap.

Mmmm, but that's problematic then...? Wonder if it's a caching issue? Or ram issue? Why would your tests taper off like that after multiple tests? Odd...

Yes, crap hardware inside the router is my reasoning. Will see what new router does, hopefully I get it today.

 

[sand_man]

What you getting?

 

[wingnut771]

What you getting?

edgerouterx

 

[sand_man]

edgerouterx

And?

 

[wingnut771]

And?

a bloody mission to set up, still battling, will let you know if and when I come right or that I haven't smashed it against the wall yet.

 

[wingnut771]

And?

Ok, I came right:

Cool!! What your connection settings on IDM? 25MB/s is basically maxing the attainable international capacity on that account?

Can you also do me a favour and run single thread speed test to Woking London, Los Angeles At&t and local?
