Do agree to a point tho (i do think there was something going on for abit earlier) but now i have good pings, icmp traffic is back, streaming seems fine yet still getting 80% packet loss according to my log. That doesnt add up

More bonkers bad packet loss today.... Between 8 and 10pm

(Ignore the bit earlier on the day, I was setting up my new router etc)

I'm on FTTC so not sure if this relates to you guys or not...

What the general consensus, is it Coms or BT congestion?

Same, something is going on between 8-10pm on certain days. Since the throttling come in packet loss has been minimal, then this

Ive sent my log to PaulComs anyway, might be worth doing the same so he has more data to go on

How was your connection during the mental packet loss period? Mine was slower in terms of streaming and browsing but there wasnt 100% packet loss as suggested in the graphs as speedtests were fine

Usable, but slow as [censored].

Set this going a little while ago. My server's not on the best of connections so take it with a pinch of salt but it's logging a handful of Coms IPs. I believe they're some of the gateway servers (first hop on your traceroutes after your router). Basically the point where my mtr things I've posted show the loss happening.

Here's a link to one of them showing 7pm to 10pm today.

Never looked at a smokeping graph before, i assume thats showing packet loss

Mmm, the colour shows the packet loss (there's a key) and nothing at all shows 100% loss.

Im slightly colourblind so doesnt help much haha

There's still the odd pings that get lost but BQMs and SmokePing are showing an improvement over earlier in the week. I've also played some Left4Dead2 without a hint of lag.

Bittorrent is still pretty grim though at around 100KB/s.
