Re: Uddingston ML5 2 Upstream Channels
Ohh well think might have to get a call in - partner is not happy with the Virgin bills so think a threat about leaving might be in place to get lower bills and upgraded to 120mbit.

I was reading a story that when IXScotland goes live and providers like vm/bt/ join it. It would help bring the ping time down in scotland. is this a lot of lies or will this happen http://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2013/02/scotland-planning-to-build-its-own-internet-exchange-for-isps.html John Souter, CEO of LINX, said (Scotsman): “The biggest difference users will see is in terms of what is called “latency” – the time lapse which can cause gaps – like a pause in conversation. The less distance information has to travel the less problem there is with latency. This is very important to games players, where low latency is critical, as well as Skype and other voice services and anything where there are transactions such as banking services.” |

Re: Uddingston ML5 2 Upstream Channels
It will have direct peering with other countries, I think New York and Holland probably some more.
I wasn't aware of any other IX in Scotland, and I said Edinburgh Linx cause the Linx people are highly involved but then again mr grumpy was extra grumpy that day :D The key thing though is that they configure the traffic to go through it and it should help with latency for Scotland. |
Re: Uddingston ML5 2 Upstream Channels
Was just having conversation with one of virgin network people he has been working on the cabinet outside our house for 2 days. he said he was doing Noise control for a upgrade on the Upstream from 16 to 64 ?. So does this just let them have more Upstream ??
To be honest i had no idea what he was saying all a bit too technical for me LOL :) Had 3 outages yesterday http://www.thinkbroadband.com/ping/s...10-09-2013.png Still looks the same Attachment 24901 |
Re: Uddingston ML5 2 Upstream Channels
QAM16 to QAM64, I believe seph has talked about this a few times. At a basic level, it gives each channel more bandwidth to play with but the side effect is that it's more prone to noise (hence the noise control). It's a good thing!

The outages may well be the work he's already doing (or a colleague) upstream. You appear to already have the new channel plan with 4 possible upstream 6.4MHz RF with 200khz guard bands (24.4, 31.0 , 36.6, 43.2) in space of 3 typical existing centre frequencies (27.4, 35.8, 45.8, ) previously. Theoretically I think you could get 6 x 6.4MHz x QAM64 channels from 17.8MHz thru 59.8MHz based on those centre frequencies just before replacing legacy 5-55MHz DOCSIS Bidi amps to accommodate the (euro)DOCSIS3.0 (5-85MHz) upstream spec and expanding upstream capacity further. However VM may be trying to defer replacement amps in order to accommodate wide bandwidth DOCSIS3.1 amps for OFDM with bottom,mid and top band splits. Replacing all UK (or large proportion of legacy Gerold) equipment is not something you leap into without significant planning and you certainly don't want to do it twice in as many years (usually only within 2 decades or more if you can stretch it)! ;) These things can therefore take significant time….(DOCSIS3.1) OFDM is still probably a a couple of years away yet from practical commercial quantities at least? :( I also suspect VM will want to leapfrog from current 8x4 DOCSIS tuner to 24x8 channels and by-pass Puma6 and Broadcom equivalents before trialling a SuperHub 4 version. Interesting times….. |
Re: Uddingston ML5 2 Upstream Channels
I sure as don't have friends at Virgin Media, still not letting me upgrade! :td:
Tried the whole "ohh could you try sending the file to the modem for me?" and got shot down apparently there is no option on the system for him to do that! Ahh well looks like end of October (or what ever they extend it to after that passes) for me! |
Re: Uddingston ML5 2 Upstream Channels
Had 1 outage today :( and now the broadband is so slow

I just got called from a friend close to your area who's lost his connection this morning. Checked mine and i'ts been going up and down like the panties of a $5 crack prozzie. EDIT : I'm in the G72 area, not too far from you. |
Re: Uddingston ML5 2 Upstream Channels
Just got off the phone they are saying it is affecting a big part of this Area
Fault reference: F002669808 Estimated fix time: 16/09/13 - 04:05 PM Priority-1 EDIT: My connection has been ok this morning. But my next door neighbors is offline |
