I had a new hub installed on Friday but I've had a few reboots since then, maybe 3 in total since Friday.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

Just got off the phone with VM and apparently they cant do nothing about ping and latency issues as it is outside of their control.

And they also cant raise any utilisation flags because we are only at 89% and you need to be 94%.

So bye-bye VM. Hopefully no more of this crap

Streaming some Youtube HD content certainly made the evening hump bigger:



No stuttering or buffering though.

I've heard quite a few different figures bandied about, seems like the goalposts keep moving

The goalposts do keep moving, but not in the direction you seem to think. It was never 70%, the last I checked it was (if I remember correctly) >90% utilisation for >10% of the time on DOCSIS 3 (i.e. they don't do anything if it peaks at 90% for an hour a day) and it was getting better (used to be >95% util for >15% of the time or something like that).

DOCSIS1/2 had much different figures, it was something daft like >99% utilisation >50% of the time. I don't think that ever changed.

I'm not sure where the 70% figure came from, that could be the CARDIE score for noise but I was never clear on what that figure actually represented (Something to do with FEC errors) as occasionally a completely chuffed upstream would only have a 25% score while people would be happy and content on a line hitting 72%. A good agent would raise both of those if he spotted it though.

A VM staff member once told me my segment was >90% 90% of the time... Didn't say if it was D1 or D3 but I had a D3 service at the time.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

That would be D3 then.

The figures are for agents raising a ticket to the outage team, who'll double check it and raise a utilisation ticket (Assuming it IS within the correct figures and isn't a duplicate).

After that, I have no idea what happens - from what I gather, the ticket will sit there until someone at *NMC (Who no longer exist?) decides it's causing enough trouble to actually have something done about it. In other words, when you phone in complaining, the agent books a trouble call against that ticket and when the ticket gets enough customers assigned to it, they'll decide to actually fix it. That was a while ago though, I'm sure it has changed since them.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

Perhaps a new thread detailing your woes would be better than posting your outages here where they can be lost amongst on-topic stuff?
