seems a new gateway on plusnet, but I am going to have to hop as no ipv6 plus my net is very laggy atm not sure if due to zyxel or other issue.

164.core and normally my first hop is 14-15ms at best.

 1     1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  home.gateway [192.168.1.253]
  2    13 ms    12 ms    12 ms  164.core.plus.net [195.166.130.164]
  3    12 ms    12 ms    13 ms  irb.10.pcl-cr02.plus.net [84.93.249.82]
  4    15 ms    13 ms    13 ms  ae2.pcl-cr01.plus.net [195.166.129.6]
  5    13 ms    12 ms    12 ms  ae1.ptw-cr01.plus.net [195.166.129.0]
  6    13 ms    13 ms    13 ms  kingston-gw.thdo.bbc.co.uk [212.58.239.6]

164.core.plus.net

wth is that..  Ive never seen them use 'core' before..  are they hooking into a BTwcore rather than using one of their own gateways?
Its certainly not one of their usual locations.

164.core.plus.net [195.166.130.164]

It just means plusnet haven't set up a more specific reverse dns entry. Other bng gateways have 195.166.130.XXX IP addresses in the traceroute (in that direction).

yep..   look at the tracert..  looks good eh? 
Code: [Select]
Tracing route to kitz.co.uk [185.24.98.37]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

  1     1 ms    <1 ms     1 ms  ZyXEL.Home [192.168.1.1]
  2    12 ms    12 ms    12 ms  164.core.plus.net [195.166.130.164]
  3    20 ms    12 ms    12 ms  irb.10.pcl-cr01.plus.net [84.93.249.81]
  4    12 ms    17 ms    12 ms  ae2.pcl-cr02.plus.net [195.166.129.7]

yeah some performance issues at the moment.

I now know my laggy internet at the time tho was caused by the zyxel as you seen in my zyxel thread, and I couldnt get a speedtest to run for more than one second.

The main reason I hopped is that new gateway doesnt support ipv6.

central10.ptw-ag03 seems ok tho, full speed right now at 8.45pm and ipv6 capable.

more weirdness, today decided to do a speedtest, download was fine but upload was bad, it was on every repeated test.



Then I hopped gateways and surprise surprise, see the new result, again repeated.



I then looked at my tbb graph and its been littered with packetloss 24/7, strangely this wasnt affecting download speeds only uploads.  Now after the gateway hop the packetloss is gone.

ipv4



ipv6

Hi Chrysalis,

This may be related to the IPv6 trial. Can you switch back to your normal username and see if that makes a difference at all please?

Thanks!

Regards,

Linn
