Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
On a 200mb connection regularly dipping to sub 30Mb. Not good in household of six with four teenagers !
HAd a post up on the VM support site for a week with no response, any ideas here.
Midweek, when everyone is at work its fine...Any thoughts from those in the know on congestion in this area ?
WA5 postcode Warrington.

Ya, over subscription/congestion. If there was something wrong with your power levels/connection it wouldnt magically resolve in non-peak time hours.

What if it was the household hammering the connection? You didn't say.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
The point at which I swapped out my old RT-N66U for a new RT-AC88U.
Why would swapping routers make such a difference to the graph? There has been no drop in connection performance.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
I can only think it is a qos type thing and how the router is prioritising how it handles and responds to traffic/requests

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
I dont see how that would make a difference.
The pings are presumably to the hub, not beyond that to the router ?
Did you pick up a different IP address maybe ?

No, if the shub is in modem mode then the attached router responds to the ping requests. That is why when you get a new router these days (especially Asus) your graph is solid red because "respond to icmp echo requests" is disabled by default. And yes he will have a new ip address because the mac address has changed.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
As yes, come to think of it, my external IP address is sitting on my router.
A new router however does not necessarily mean a new IP.
Any new router I have had has always allowed me to set the MAC address, so I always get the same IP back again.

Thanks for your suggestions.
No, I have the the same IP as before.
I have QoS disabled, because I have enough bandwidth not to have to concern myself with that.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
A step change yesterday morning and continuing until now, north Bristol area..
Nothing on the status page, speed tests a little down on usual and web browsing a tad slow but nothing silly.

You have big issues, have you rebooted the modem, looking at that i would say you have no internet, or very little.

I rebooted the modem shortly after posting that, and with a change of DS channels, all returned to normal - but that's the daft thing, my connection was perhaps a tad slow around 60Mb rather than the usual 100Mb, but otherwise no problems!

Is it just me or are the humps coming back?
I had no internet for almost four hours today, also.
