Drop in speed and higher pings

Hi, i guess this has been mentioned before on here but i think the G.inp activation has happened on my cabinet. i was using a Eci modem but read the huawei modem may solve the G.inp problem but didnt. I connected my Asus Vdsl/Router to the line and the stats say its on interleaved, i activated the G.inp setting and it went to fastpath and the connection speeds were back to normal, but using the connection the speeds were terrible. Original speeds were around 73 mb down and 18 mb up and are now 64 down and 16 up. pings went from 5 to 22. Is there anything that can be done to rectify this?

I think there's a beta firmware for the Asus which resolves stability problems like that.
Which exchange are you on?

Slower 4G Download Speeds and Higher Pings Tonight

Stillwater, OK. Tonight, the DL speeds and ping times are worse than normal. UL speeds are unaffected.
Normal speeds, representative of the last few weeks...
Tonight's speeds (similar results to different test servers in the area)...
Ping times have more than doubled, and the download speed has been cut to ~25% of normal. If I try a test server on the east coast, I get something like the following (bad UL speeds too)...
Scary to think this could be due to the tower becoming overloaded (it is prime time) so early in the 4G game. The only other thing I can think of is that its particularly humid tonight, but why would that affect mainly the DL speed and not the UL speed?

Speeds were still slow this morning, so I power-cycled the modem (and router). Speeds are back to normal, so it seems like I just needed to reboot the gear.

BTW Speed Test High Ping

This afternoon using the BTW speed test our infinity1 speed dropped from 36/37Mbps to around 24, however testing via speedtest.net and think broadband speed test (along with several others) gave our normal speed and ping (around 30-35 ms) A short while later tests via BTW returned normal speeds but ping is still much higher using BTW than any of the other available test sites.
What could the reason be?

The BTW test could be congested.

BT Infinity 2 and high ping rate

I am having a problem with my BT Infinity2. I am getting high ping rates some as high as 181 ms. I have download speeds of 15 meg and 8-9 meg upload. This is through the router wired to my computer. I was told that I should be able to get somewhere in the region of 77 meg. This is nowhere near and needs to be sorted out.
It doesn't matter what time of day I do the speed test it is always the same. If I try and play my Football Manager 2012 game online I can't as my connection just kicks me back off the steam server. If I try and watch a programme on Iplayer or ITV player ther programmes are fuzzy, blocking and unwatchable, also with the buffering is beyond a joke.

micksea173 not good and you have my sympathy
Try rebooting both the hub and the modem. Run the BT Speedtester to get your IP Profiles and http://www.speedtest.bbmax.co.uk/ to get an accurate speed test. Pings are very dependant on the site you are measuring a ping of 181 for a server in LA could be quite good! If you know how also run a tracert to bbc.co.uk. Post agin with the results and somebody can make an educated guess as to where the problem lies.

70% drop in speed and constant dropped connection

Been on Infinity2 since October, BT's estimate for my line is 58 to 76mbs as im 300m from the Penistone, Sheffield Road exchange. Up until Xmas i was getting 74-75mbs d/l and 17-18mbs u/l with 5-15ms ping in speedtest, now i'm getting 24 d/l 2.9 u/l and 50+ ping, the connection is slow and it drops approx 20 times a day. I can no longer watch streams, HD videos and gaming(the reason i got Infinity) is impossible as the lag is horrific and the drop offs finish it off, even web pages with pictures can take forever to load, the pics load gradually like back in the dial-up days.
BT Wholesale now gives 24.5mbs d/l 2.9 u/l and says the max for my line is 25.11mbs so what happened to the 58-76mbs i was quoted and the 75mbs i was actually getting?
It all seems to start since the latest firmware 4.7.5.1.83.8.130.1.17 (Type A) was installed, it was rock solid until then, now it feels like my speed and bandwidth have been heavilly capped to the point the service is not even good for web browsing as many pages time out.
The event log is now filled with IN: BLOCK [16] Remote administration (TCP 222.186.62.66:6000->109.158.116.58:22 on ppp1)
i thought it might be due to the storms around xmas but a month on and some googling im realising im just 1 of many with these problems, has anybody managed to get the problems solved?
To Infinity and back down to Earth in flames.

Random Disconetions and high ping during online games

I have had the same WRT120N for over a year now and it was working fine until a few weeks ago ,I play League of Legends a lot and lately during matches i get high ping and disconections at randome times even though i'm useing a ethernet connection to my desktop. I get 500ms ping and a message saying Ttrying to reconnect and it stays there for 30-50 seconds but when i open chrome the net works fine. I could really use some help here please.

BT Infinity 2 - Not the best speed? High Ping.

I hope someone can be of help?
I originally bought fibre last year, and had a massive drop off in speed, ending up at around 8- 11mb download. After some back and forth with the good chaps (and chappessess) in India, an engineer was duly dispatched before Christmas, who told me the original installation hadn't been the best. Anyway, he did some work, told me I should be getting around 52-55mb, which should settle and go stable over the next few days...
I am now on around 32mb download, and 10mb upload, with a ping of between 42-47ms. Having run the speed tester at http://www.dslchecker.bt.com/adsl/ADSLChecker.TelephoneNumberOutput, it appears that I am getting the speeds that are shown in the low column of the impacted line (assuming impacted is used as no line is perfect?).
If I then go to the BT website to buy a package, and run an estimate on what I could get against my phone number, they quote 53-70mb down, and 15-20mb up.
As the crows fly I am around 800m from the exchange, but obviously the line will be longer than this. The question is, is this drop off normal, as it appears that the line has settled on the lowest attainable speed possible, or am I just very unlucky and have a totally 'impacted' line between me and the cabinet?

When you use the BT checker it would appear that it always quotes the Range A speeds rather than showing the Range B to Range A speeds which would be a fairer estimate because there is no way of telling which Range your line is on until you get broadband. If that was to happen at least you would know the worst as well as the best speed possible on your line.
If you are on an impacted line you could try and get BT to have a look at it to see if there is anyway of improving it but I suspect that they will use the "you're within estimate" get out clause. When they use that estimate it always seems to be the Range B estimate they use and not the one you were quoted when you signed up.
If you have a look at this graph you will see the expected speeds over distance for Infinity, which is VDSL2 which puts your speed at 800mtrs about 20Mbps.

Hi, thanks for the speedy reply! The results from above are not whilst connected to a test line
The quiet line test seems fine.
I have just put it into the test socket and the internet does seem much more repsonsive when I go onto websites.
There still seems to be a few errors on the ADSL settings.

High fan speeds and high GPU temperature during idle

Hi,
I'm hearing slight similar problems around this subject but this one seems to be obscure.
My iMac 20inch (Early 2008 - 8,1) has just passed by the 3 year mark now and only yesterday just suddenly started haven't this weird gain in fan speeds mainly on the CPU.
Checking the temperature in iStat shows that its coming mainly from the GPU (GPU - 79c / GPU diode - 91c / GPU heatsink - 83c) and that's from looking as I type this.
I've done the SMC reset a few times and the PRAM reset too, but that's only managed to make things worse...occasionally on startup after the resets the screen will blank out and ask me to reset.
Below are screenshots from istats of the state of my iMac during idle:
Hope someone can help and this be of some help to others in the same situation.

I think a SMC reset will handle this for you. If not then also do a PRAM reset.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

Packet loss and high ping

I have been having intermittent packet loss issues for the greater part of this month, Today has made it so I can barely stay connected to the internet. I have gone through customer service a couple times, multiple router resets, wired vs. unwired, nothing changes. Here's some images of the problem from this morning. Just wondering if there was anything I could do on my end to fix this. Modem model is SB6141.

Hi bentheren,
Thanks for posting, have you tried setting up port forwarding to see if this makes any difference?
Cheers
Neil

Super Slow speeds and extremely high latency

This is my last attempt with Verizon high speed DSL (the only service they offer here). I have been dealing with them for months about my slow connection speeds and high latency. Finally, after a new modem, supposed line monitoring and a two tech visits the last tech found noise in the line and fixed some of my issue. Now my speed and pings are good EXCEPT during peak hours (M-F 12 pm -1 pm, 3 pm - 7 pm and Friday and Saturday 7-11 pm). During these times m Internet becomes completely unusable with download speeds of 0.25 MBps and pings over 400 ms and today I had a pint of 1713 ms!!! Clearly there is an issue here.

High Packet Loss, High Ping and Slow Connection Ov...

Hi There,
I have been a customer with the BT unlimited broadband package for a little under two years and up until recently have had no real issues with the service. This was until around 3/4 weeks ago I noticed that the internet was very slow and certain online games or applications like Netflix would lose all of its quality or stop completely. At first I thought nothing of it and simply reset my BT Home hub router, and sure enough everything was back to normal. However after around 2-3 hours of moderate use (gaming online or watching Netflix) the problem surfaced again.
Now I am lucky if I can get the entire way through a 40 minute TV episode before the quality drops and/or the service requires buffering. I have already contacted BT via the helpline and the service lady ran through the obligatory steps (turn off, wait 5 minutes, reset the home hub etc.) but she failed to understand that although rebooting the home hub does alleviate the problem initially, the symptoms of a slow connection, high packet loss and high ping always return within an hour.
Four the last couple of weeks I have been trying to investigate the problem myself and I have done the following things:
Tested the line using the master socket (no difference)
Opened the ports on my firewall within the home hub (no difference)
Directly wired in the computer instead of relying on the wifi (no difference)
Tested for interference from neighbours wifi using inSSIDider office (it wasn’t, operating on different channels)
Switched every device that requires internet off apart from the PC (no difference)
So with all that in mind I am fairly confident that it is nothing within my house that has caused a significant reduction in internet quality.
Now I have tried my best to display the problem I am having by recording the connection quality for the last 24 hours. The table below represents the condition and quality of the connection after leaving it a period of time without resetting:

I have also checked if the bell wire was attached and it is not. My socket is of the new type with the inclusion of an inductor on the faceplate. My ADSL filters and modem cable already have the middle connecting pins removed so I don’t think it is a wiring problem, at least in my apartment anyway. I have also searched for problems with the exchange and they are showing green for my area. (Liverpool Central)
I have just rang the quiet line and I do not appear to have any noise on the line. However, all I have is a cordless phone and I know that is not ideal for determining noise due to the radio frequency interfering with the phone speaker.
Again thank you for you time on this issue.
Regards,
Richard

Slow Speeds/High Ping During Evening

Just signed up for Comcast this week. Noticed bad lag while gaming and speed tests indicate slow download speeds (<10 Mbps when I should be getting 75 Mbps) and high ping (200-300ms). Checked everything hardware related on my end and couldn't find an issue. Finally, did some trace routing and discovered high ping on Comcast servers in San Jose and Great Oaks. See tracert results below. These issues seem to occur during the evenings (8pm to midnight PST), but the few checks I did during the day seemed fine. It may be related to streaming volume at night. In any event, it's ruining my internet experience. How can this be resolved? Tracing route to e10905.dspb.akamaiedge.net [23.211.8.171]

The same thing is happening for me. I live in Houston, Texas and my ping to a game called LoL was around 80 now its at 90. It's not a huge difference and I don't notice anything when gaming. I'm just curious as to why this has happened?

Very slow upload speeds and packet loss

I have the exact same issue as the following threads.
https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity-Speed-Connection/Very-bad-connection-Packet-Loss-very-low-up...
https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity-Speed-Connection/extremely-low-upload-speeds-and-high-latenc...
My download speed is around 36M and my upload speed on speed tests either fails to connect or I get around 0.5M. Pinging google leads to frequent none responses, probably on average 1 in ever 8 pings fails.
I have rebooted the router, reset the router to factory settings and disconnected all devices apart from 1 clean CentOS desktop pc to do the speed test and still get the same results. Could someone please give me details so I can get this investigated properly and soon as it is effecting my work.

Extremely slow and high latency all day.

DSL is running extremely slow during peak hours from 12 afternoon to 12 midnight. Lower than 50% of rated speed and high latency
I have been frustrated with this DSL Service for months now. I am considering contacting BBB to file a complaint and I am tired of dealing with customer service giving me the run around. Internet is a monopoly in my area therefore verizon feels it doesn't have to do anything to keep its customers when they provide crappy service. I am on waitlist for another internet service provider and it is going to take almost a year because of how bad the internet options are in the area and demand for better options. I even had to pay over 100 dollars to get a truck roll come to my house to fix any issues within the house and the internet has not gotten better. Atleast I feel I should get a refund or something.
Here is my speedtest result just now. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2899553407
It has been even slower at other times. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2893509440
Modem is Westell 6100 or something.

Here is what ICSI Netalyzer Results have stated.
Network Access Link Properties + –
Network performance (?): Latency: 580 ms, Loss: 15.5% –
The round-trip time (RTT) between your computer and our server is 580 ms, which is somewhat high. This may be due to a variety of factors, including distance between your computer and our server, a slow network link, or other network traffic.
We recorded a packet loss of 16%. This loss is very significant and will lead to serious performance problems. It could be due either to very high load on our servers due to a large number of visitors, or problems in your network. Of the packet loss, at least 14.0% of the packets appear to have been lost on the path from your computer to our servers.
TCP connection setup latency (?): 720ms –
The time it takes for your computer to set up a TCP connection with our server is 720 ms, which is quite high. This may be due to a variety of factors, including a significant distance between your computer and our server, a particularly slow or poor network link, or problems in your network.
Background measurement of network health (?): 3 transient outages, longest: 0.8 seconds –
During most of Netalyzr's execution, the client continuously measures the state of the network in the background, looking for short outages. During testing, the client observed 3 such outages. The longest outage lasted for 0.8 seconds. This suggests a general problem with the network where connectivity is intermittent. This loss might also cause some of Netalyzr's other tests to produce incorrect results.
Network bandwidth (?): Upload 700 Kbit/s, Download 2.3 Mbit/s +
Network buffer measurements (?): Uplink 5400 ms, Downlink 1200 ms –
We estimate your uplink as having 5400 ms of buffering. This is quite high, and you may experience substantial disruption to your network performance when performing interactive tasks such as web-surfing while simultaneously conducting large uploads. With such a buffer, real-time applications such as games or audio chat can work quite poorly when conducting large uploads at the same time.
We estimate your downlink as having 1200 ms of buffering. This is quite high, and you may experience substantial disruption to your network performance when performing interactive tasks such as web-surfing while simultaneously conducting large downloads. With such a buffer, real-time applications such as games or audio chat can work quite poorly when conducting large downloads at the same time.

DNS results wildcarding (?): Warning –
Your ISP's DNS server returns IP addresses even for domain names which should not resolve. Instead of an error, the DNS server returns an address of 199.101.28.20, which resolves to search.dnsassist.verizon.net. You can inspect the resulting HTML content here.
There are several possible explanations for this behavior. The most likely cause is that the ISP is attempting to profit from customer's typos by presenting advertisements in response to bad requests, but it could also be due to an error or misconfiguration in the DNS server.
The big problem with this behavior is that it can potentially break any network application which relies on DNS properly returning an error when a name does not exist.
The following lists your DNS server's behavior in more detail.
Please help. I am so frustrated I literally have fights with my family over internet problems. I am right now looking for other options and even starting to think about paying over 100 a month for dedicated line or T1 if they can service my area.

Not a single response from Verizon on this? And after you posted the tests & information they will need? I think I may have to make a service choice soon. Its bad enough Verizon can't post a simple email address for our support, they have removed Usenet access, removed access to our websites (I use HTML so their sitebuilder is useless)... Sheeshe...
