So they upgraded the DSLAM in the exchange and after first not being able to authenticate to my ISP (working again) my once stable connection is not so nice. Ran a couple of traceroutes right after one another. Looking at the results does anyone know what this is indicative of? Should I ask to have my port recreated? Modem says I am syncing at 10MB but speed test results are pathetic

Jeez, that ping is insane! I wouldn't bother with recreating the port. There may be something wrong with the line.
 
Been having that issue for 2 weeks now....... just restarted my connection and it wont connect again posting this from my phone
