Does anyone have some tracerts we can compare for interest sakes. There are a few guys having problems here which we could maybe identify in the tracerts.

That is interesting, didn't know WA ran off Internet Solutions . . . . . .

Which makes even more sense seeing that Dimension data owns IS.

Morning All

For my particular case, WA made some adjustments (read not sure what) on their side, my line is now performing as expected.

I will be monitoring it for any deviations/performance issues.

Can now stream iptv which is great! :)

@Grant - Peter has been investigated and has a better performing router that has reported to resolve his speed issue to this point, we are still monitoring. In future please use the normal speed tests (http://beta.speedtest.net/?noflash=1) . It provides us with the results we require for investigations


We are in contact with Peter - via email - he will , as he has in the past, inform us of the connection performance.

Thank you though Grant for everything
