Any problems tonight?

I'm noticing a problem loading sites.

Sometimes it loads fast but others there is a few secs wait before it loads.

Tested 3 other computers aswell.

My connection has been down/iffy since around 10 am, it's working but with packet loss now, before hand it had no service whatsoever.

The forum's been a bit sluggish, but other sites are fine for me. I spoke to Simon about it this morning, they were aware of a handful of people seeing speed issues, but it didn't seem to be anything to do with the IDNet network, more likely a hot VP or backhaul issue.

Speed test is good (see sig pic, done tonight) pings are around 15ms.

Take bbc for example. I can click a news link, it'll load fine, go back later and click the same link and there is a delay.

Getting quite annoying now.

I've noticed the forum 'hanging' for me tonight too, but I haven't really been anywhere else to compare.

Are these DNS related? I use open DNS and have had no trouble (except for openDNSs own little quirks or delays).

download speed is off a little 2nite, only getting around 4 meg, normal around 6.5meg, i thought more people are online due to poor weather today.

This sounds quite similar to my problems last night. It started with websites being slow to respond and a loss of bandwidth. The tests I carried out indicated my data flow continually kept pausing for a couple of seconds before resuming. This appeared to occurred approximately every 10 seconds. Eventually I had a total loss of bandwidth.

If only it were that simple to lose weight.

An inflamed gallbladder is the quickest way to a healthy waistline. I suspect having it removed will prove disastrous though

Rik · Mar 31, 2010, 08:40:59

Still counting down, Zap?

zappaDPJ · Mar 31, 2010, 08:41:42

Yup

Rik · Mar 31, 2010, 08:45:08

I know how you feel.
