lis200

I'm on Optus Cable which is uncapped i believe. The router is a RP614v3 the servers are all located in australia and as i said i get some pretty good pings such as 23 which i got last night. It's just that sometimes it lags up to 400 - 500 and i'm not sure what that us. Andy

I ran traceroutes and pings but i'm not sure what i am looking for. Does this seem right?

Not sure what the problem is with the fluxuations but. Unfortunantly disabling the router is not realy an option i can take at the moment.
