plusnet congestion?

anyone been seeing congestion issues?

can see from my graph in sig last 2 nights (not checked back further) look messy, speedtest didnt look pretty, hopped from ag03 to ag01 and speedtest is fine again, I dont know yet if graph will be improved but pings look better so I think will be.

This has been affecting real use, browsing was feeling laggy which is why I checked my graph.

My speeds are somewhat slower in the last month or two (non gold traffic down from 7-8MB-ish to 5-6Mb ), In addition had a load of DNS issues yesterday, seems better now.

If you want to run some extra speed tests, PM me.

There's a comment on a thread in the Community Forum somewhere that one of the ag03 gateways was incorrectly prioritising traffic. It appears to have been rectified...

My 'normal' is around 30Mbps down and 6.5Mbps up but over the last couple of months it's been all over the place. Just before I went to bed last night and this morning I was down to around 5Mbps down and 0.5Mbps up. I've found that 9 times out of ten changing gateway sorts things out.

I'm currently on pcl-ag04 and getting 25Mbps down and 6.5Mbps up.

Speeds, latency and drop out were diabolical last week.

You can't, but you can give a normal sort of link. If you click the Quote button on this post you can see how to do that.

I was on ag03 but on a different ag03, I was on pcl. Whether or not that was affected, no idea as I have since jumped to ag01.

You know I made a ppp bash script for my router since I have had to jump so many times O_o, it recconects in 5 seconds, way quicker than using the GUI.

Ah I see thanks - always think it's me doing something wrong.

Last test result.

@Chrysalis - I was on pcl-ag03 last night and this am but the jump corrected things for me too. I don't mind using the router web page and I check btn re-connects to see where I've landed.
