Hmm maybe it was a MFN thing then? Very bizarre, never had it before, today it’s back to normal.
RocketNet :: Your Doubled-Up fibre speed will end on the 31st July 2020. To stay DOUBLED-UP, please email [email protected].
Just got the above SMS, so sad. I am on Metrofibre through Rocketnet
Please can you explain how you know it would be packetloss, I’d appreciate it!Packetloss. Who is the FNO
packetloss only shows up when moving data, iperf test will show it more than mtr.Packetloss = Retransmits = Slow speeds
Follow the below instructions , let it run for a bit and then post the results done to international IPs

Doesn't hurt to try mtr, you need be a rocket scientist to do iperf. Run mtr for 5 mins to international server. @cavedog is right, it's not shaping but a last mile congestion issue and should log a fault.Only? If there's a faulty or saturated device/port somewhere in the chain, wont that show up in the mtr?
But agreed iperf is another tool to be used.

Wish rain 5G would get a move on for times like this.Good luck with that. It's an ongoing Vendor issue.
try another cable.Okay well now I am seriously confused. Seems its only like this from my desktop which is connected via ethernet. So it's definitely not Rocketnet.
