yep i get the same problem i live 20 miles away from manchester and always seem to get a packet loss of 2-10% virtually all the time i can do it on any other server and get 0% packet loss like in spain milton keynes russia just get a problem with manchester.

me too 9%sometimes, i am on bt infinty unlimited by the way

could be something to do with p2p traffic shaping [IMG]http://www.pingtest.net/result/44059731.png[/IMG]

Yeah, I have packet loss problems with Manchester too, but no problems with my local server, Milton Keynes.

"]Ping Maidenheadhttp://www.pingtest.net/result/44062799.pngPing Maidstone
Ping Manchester
Ping Canada

Geographically the closest to me is Manchester yet this is the only one that shows 4% packet loss jitter and higher ping response out of the 3 uk servers also on the speedtest.net site Manchester is again flapping on downstream speed fluctuates al the time, all others provide a steady stream of data, and give consistent results of around 90% of my max throughput, so if it isn't a server issue it's the CDN that speedtest.uses

Pingtest and Speedtest do not use CDN for any of the actual tests, so that has nothing to do with it.

The CDN is used for the site content.

Here is a couple of speedtest results

MCR

Maidenhead

london

It was never resolved to me - same results pingtest results as always, with packet loss only on the Manchester server.

Speedtest Manchester is always all over the place as well. Ping has been 60+ for the last couple of days. Usually around 25. Upload 0.96 everytime all over UK - Manchester usually lower. Download can be anything from 8-11 - everywhere else 11.

Definitely a problem somewhere and pretty much certain its not at my end. Site owner says its not at his end either, so what can you do?
