I'm starting to think there's something wrong with the path VB takes... maybe an overloaded switch or something...

If anyone is using newsdemon on vb and its performing... could you please do a trace route?

Wish I could just get to the bottom of the cause... Its seriously frustrating knowing there's a problem - but not knowing where it is.

A lot of headaches would also be prevented if the actual cause of the fluctuating performance could me found.

I'll do one a little bit later tonight, currently on another account right now, seeing that I was getting really ticked off with my VB account :mad:
 
You should get yourself an Astra account :) - shorter route:

Code: 
 1  Billion.400G (192.168.1.2)  1.760 ms  1.732 ms  1.718 ms

I wouldn't know what performance is like on ND, but here is the route it takes from my connection, pretty much the same as yours except hop 8:

13  69.16.186.118 (69.16.186.118)  394.822 ms * *

EDIT: Ran traceroute again and now its timing out before the destination.

Looks some sort of throttling - because when it connects it jumps to a decent speed (200) - and then dies without seconds...
Click to expand...

So there is definite throttling happening. I have been preloading Battlefield all evening, then suddenly at 12 on the button, the line opened up to max speed. Check the screenshot from my routers graphing page.

http://puu.sh/7mos

That little bit during the day, is an ftp download. Which I always get full line speed for, just not http.
 
Nope... back down to 9KB/s ... was short lived. :mad:

Can't even open bloody gmail...

I'm actually starting to wonder what the CPA would say about this... 1.75% of the product max speed is not a best-effort service.
 
Getting much better performance today, I'm a happy camper at the moment. Would just like to thank MrBeep for his patience with me emailing back and forth a lot during this past week. :)

Site took forever to open.

It just hangs on verifying username and password.

This has been such a waste of money since August... every second day I have to spend hours trying to get speeds above 100KB/s

Suppose not even change of dns might help like in google's ?

Tried :(

Got it up to 200KB now by cycling through newsgroup ports... not sure how long it'll hold.

EDIT: I'm on the way out - guess I'll have to live with another day of this.

xRapidx, I am getting full speed on IS.. It's the usual midnight to 6am, and weekends thing.
 
Openweb uncapped. Download this month 4.4 gb. Speed atm 8kb/s

Fail

How do you manage that? What uncapped package do you have?

I moved over from 384 to 1024 (VB Gold) and currently sitting at 90GB
