Have you contacted support with your results?

I sent an email, they looked into it and found no obvious network problems at their end.

Interleaving disabled... Something odd, I even just turned off everything on the network and still have high pings. Odd.

Do you run a server, Ducky?

I'm certainly not seeing anything odd myself, I did a 24 ping test recently, and other than the odd rogue, they were all comfortably in my 'normal' range.

What happen was the other night gameing with a mate (diff exchange then me ) pings where fine and all ok getting about 20 ping and then 12.10 am lost ppp session , so turn comp off and went to bed , last night connection was back on but pings have doubled to between 40 & 50 , so i think it could be the exchange might have done some work , maybe .

The work BT are doing does cause a loss of PPP for a few minutes between 00:00-06:00, so it may have been that. It shouldn't be extending pings unless they are introducing a new hop or two, how many steps do you get on a tracert to idnet? This is mine:

tracert www.idnet.net

It does look like the extra time is taken in reaching IDNet, ie in BT's network. How far are you from London? Is interleaving on?

fast path mode , and about 170 miles from london .

I'm interleaved and 50 miles. It might be worth running a few tracerts over the weekend and letting IDNet have them if things haven't settled down. Your line is fine, full sync with headroom on the noise margin (I should have realised you weren't interleaved from that :().

NP. :)

Incidentally, it shows how accurate the speed tester is at working out distance. ;)

Yeah but doesnt the speed tester work it out from the ident servers and not where i live ? maybe .

It's possible, though it seems to give different distances to people. I don't trust speed testers anyway. ;)

I do but only an SSL page is accessible externally and I yanked the ethernet cable out anyway for 10mins before I tested.

Latency is still a lot higher that it used to be which was around 22-24ms. Line is definitely fastpath.

Things seem to have improved... which either means IDNet/BT found something and fixed it, or it was the result of congestion. I am on a 'red' congested exchange but already on supermax because of this. :-(.
