Erm, suggestions? My noise margin and stuff are fine. I can see that others are having the ping problems, but the speed is what worries me more.

The more who do maybe the more they will look and see if its a BT issue or a capacity issue, whichever it is it is best sorted out Danni, thats how I see it.

Okay, emailing them now.

While we're on it, I'm now blaming the flooding and lightening strikes on the Metro system, because I want to blame silly things while I'm getting it sorted :P

You have storms? Its just searing sun down on the south coast :( to hot

aggreed really annoying having speed issues when im not allowed to dirve or go to work

im going to blame it on a capacitor hidden away within somewhere in a Idnet router that isnt even conected to the network and is just producing bad karma

Post by: Danni on Jul 01, 2009, 16:44:07

Indeed- the storms have passed over me, but I think that's to blame for Colin's lower sync speed :)

I am so glad I missed college today- would have been stranded in South Shields as I don't cope well with buses and getting two home would have been too much.

Title: Re: I think something's slightly wrong.
Post by: Colin Burns on Jul 01, 2009, 16:45:04

could explain my low sync but doesnt explain my throughput

I can understand that, I never did like buses much Danni, to many people I get claustrophobic, especially in heat

I think anyone with speed issues should contact IDNet directly. :)

Had a response from Simon:

QuoteHi Danni

We're seeing a high volume of traffic right now and are working to re-balance our Centrals.

regards
Simon

I am hoping this means it will be sorted soon :)

I bet the load balancing on the centrals has gone haywire with extra traffic.Did we ever hear whether gw6 was resolved?

Title: Re: I think something's slightly wrong.
Post by: Sebby on Jul 01, 2009, 19:15:55

I don't think we did, Steve, but I assume the issue was resolved when users started moving over to ADSL2+, hence relieving the unanticipated strain on gw6.

I am pinging idnet.net at 31ms which is about the norm for me now.
