Increasing consistent small packet loss

[joe]

I am aware of an increase in small packet loss which is occurring regularly throughout 24hrs. Anyone else?

[Steve]

I'm seeing a small amount from early afternoon until around midnight!

[Bill]

I get a small amount, mostly between about 2pm and 8pm, but it's very small and has pretty much always been there.

[andrue]

Nothing out of the ordinary showing here although it seems like interleaving has been taken off my line recently:



Speedtest results are pretty good:



Not as fast as I'd expect without interleaving but unfortunately I've lost my ability to access modem stats :-/

Similar on my line to Andrue's (but on a different BT PoP - red6 @ Stepney Green). However on my line latency as reported by the modem does seem to have increased by 10ms or so beyond the Cab, I assume over the wholesale backhaul. Is that surprising given the growth of fibre-based connections, though; and I believe that part of the network is subject to on-going upgrades anyway? But frankly, 10ms is not something I notice.

Anyone else noticing packet loss during the evenings at the moment? I had a a big ish blip one around 10pm last night. It seems to start early evening and clear after midnight. Looking at craigs its only on IDnet again

Not sure it's causing any issues though at present

Its odd that its on IDNet circuits once again though, Steve

Thought it was just me ..................

The ones I can see on craigs all seem to look like this for idnet  Doing a speed test yesterday afternoon it was very odd, and I noticed Speedtest.net cant work out if im in Milton keynes or London, sometimes it cant tell at all and gives no place, and that coincided with the packet loss. Of course I'm not in either place

[davecollins]

Yup, I'm seeing the same thing too. Again.

Deja vu?

I really hope this does not get worse before Christmas, what gets me is BT graphs show virtually nothing in the way of packet loss 

[zappaDPJ]

For the last couple of weeks I've been getting random disconnections from various services. They don't generally amount to more than 2-3 a day and I doubt they are related to the new round of packet loss but they are irritating none the less.

[kemikalkadet]

My net's been acting up for the past couple of days. My graph looks a fair bit worse than yours for latency though. I hhad an engineer come out a few weeks back to fix a line fault so I'm not sure if it's a recurring problem related to that or the same thing that you guys are experiencing.

[Steve]

I'm not seeing anything on that TBBQM that looks anything other than a line that's accessing the internet,as opposed to the one earlier which shows little usage at all, yes the max latency is peaking but that's pretty normal imo.

There is a small amount of packet loss but thats it, much less tonight than the last few days/evenings. It does not seem to be causing issue though. I would prefer to see none at at all though.

I really must wear my reading glasses more often, I could have sworn this said increased condensation, when I read the title this morning.

[Bill]

... increased condensation ...

There has to be a joke about drips in there somewhere, but I won't look for it

I was doing some research on Windows Presentation Foundation yesterday and I thought one topic was talking about composting

[davecollins]

And it's back.

I would contact IDNet support, but they never seem to do anything.

Time for me to jump ship I think.

[sobranie]

Snap!!! .... and d/l speeds have halved.  Good 'ere innit!!

[Gary]

Its not effecting my speeds at all, I think something else is going on at your end, Rick it could be the BT Modem playing up. Its odd though that this packet loss continues and other providers don't have it. IDNet don't seem particularly worried, and that worries me more since I'm in a years contract with them for FTTC. They used to be so much more proactive than this a few years back. 

[davecollins]

It's improved here - for now. There is still packet loss, but far less. Download speed appears to be good now.

I'm also in a year's contract but will be prepared to take it on the chin if I need to. It's bad for our business. We do a lot of video conferencing and webinars - so right now we're not getting what we paid for.

IDNet support used to be excellent. It's not any more.
