repeat that test during the evening and during the night.

that is an interesting approach to explain what is happening with onelinkpr. thank you for clarifying the aforementioned info. and no, i am not criticizing, i am actually thanking you for explaining what packeteer does and its usage with onelinkpr.

you know as well as i that onelinkpr is using packeteer. you wouldn't have said it (indirectly) if you didn't know it was true. plus you're a computer network expert and you can see the signs of packeteer usage affecting p2p/bittorrent.

drebel mentions it that post. drebel has inside info. since he knows a couple of onelinkpr employees who provide him with said info.

ok, first thing's first: 1. the people who bought Onelink is the same people who bought Adelphia. they are called San Juan Cable (a group of investors o inversionistas). it's not exactly buying the company, more like finding a franchise (franquicia) that can run their operations in Puerto Rico. 2. they still have problems with their servers but it's not from Sprint. remember, the problem comes from Onelinkpr server's in PR. 3. they use this equipment to discourage people from using p2p and bittorrent. Ellos usan este equipo para disuadir o meterle presion a la gente para que no usen esos programas. Eso es todo. Remember it's cheaper for them to do this than to upgrade their equipments and lines.

ok, this is how Onelinkpr is messing with its clients who use BitTorrent. they

that means it's time to call them even more now people. the majority of you are paying $55 a month and obviously it's not just for simple web browsing and checking your e-mail... so let's start calling them up and force them to provide customer satisfaction. hell, even drebel encourages you (and he usually is pro-Onelink)...

any new info. on onelink's progress?

yes, a tech support supervisor told me skype was one of the programs being blocked in order to test customer reactions for when they launch (onelink) their own VoiP (voice over ip) service similar to Skype but one they'll charge you for.

judging from what's been happening over the weekend I'd have to agree with a few fellows in the board: time to call up onelinkpr and start bitching: 1) call them up and request them to uncap the bandwidth. that means everything, from p2p to skype (Voice over IP) and online gaming 2) request for them to provide real data about current latency (The time between initiating a request for data and the beginning of the actual data transfer.) which means they have tell you when they expect the packet loss problem to be solved. 3) ask them whether they'll be "experimenting" during the nights so as to prevent frustration during that time because the internet's messed up 4) tell them you want credit for the nights your connection has been unstable due to latency and timeout problems

Apparently they've now started to fix the problems. The timeouts and packetloss are related to them rerouting their connections to the new backbone. Do a traceroute on your own ip and see it for yourserlves: http://www.dnsstuff.com/ Look in that site at the right side of the page. You'll see the traceroute feature and put in your own ip there and trace it and you'll see. Let's hope the ISP fixes the problems by this weekend or early next week. *note: the backbone being shown is Qwest, and not Adelphia (any word on Qwest backbone quality?)

someone here reported that torrents are lately very capped. looks like you know more than you're saying and obviously they (your onelinkpr friends) told you that they're limiting the concurrent connections (or rather the number of connections established per torrent) to limit the bandwidth, slow your torrent down to dial-up levels and monopolize the service exclusively for visiting pages and reading email lol

the graph results indicate the severe lag starts during the evening. why? because there are more people using the Intenret in their homes after they get in from work or whatnot. In addition to the problems caused by the Onelinkpr bandwidth capping, this causes lag noticeable by users with a sharp eye - noticing the drop in speed at those hours. obviously Onelinkpr is the culprit, and not the Adelphia routers as some people keep suggesting. do a tracert; you'll notice that Onelinkpr servers are having extreme packet loss, and causing speed problems for Onelinkpr' s clients. this in addition to Onelinkpr's bandwidth capping is severely affecting Onelinkpr's overall Internet service.

it's feb. 13 and still no fix in the onelink servers. i guess the tech trolled us when they said it would be fixed by feb. 12. goddamn, nos estan metiendolo mongo. :-/

Just- I used the online Visual Route site: http://visualroute.visualware.com/

the following is a Visual Route image showing that packet loss is not coming from the Adelphia servers but rather, they're coming straight from the Onelinkpr servers themselves.

Where'd you get this information and how good is it? also, what exactly are they going to do on Feb. 12 to solve "all the problems"? Another user, drebel, indicated the transition would be completed the 1st of March. i'm a little bit confused here, and everyone else probably is as well. Could you clarify this information for us? thanks.

yeah. the techies claim online gamers are as bad as p2p'ers/bittorrenters. they claim online gamers are abusers and literally steal bandwidth. onelinkpr is seriously messed up :-/

ok, TheSavior. i just got off the phone and asked about online gaming as well (i play WoW too) and they said online gaming is approached at the same way as with p2p/bittorrent. they've limited bandwidth for online gaming as well stating that "online gaming takes too much bandwidth and is second to p2p/bittorrent". dude, what the hell :-/

just got off the phone with oenlink's personnel. they keep insisting that p2p/bittorrent is going to be blocked indefinitely and no plans for unblocking/uncapping it are in order. what the hell are we paying $60/month for then? just internet and mail? what the hell.

I called Onelinkpr's tech support, earlier. I asked when they were going to finally finish the transition from Adelphia to Onelink, and why not increase the server farm (2 servers) from many others and uncapping the bandwidth. The techie asked how I got a hold of such confidential information, and then asked for my phone # to see if I had any problems with my line. Obviously he was looking to jot something down on my account. I of course didn't provide it. When I asked why the techie's own Powerlink connections were uncapped (in their homes) he said: "It is a privilege for us to have unrestricted and complete access to the bandwidth.

apparently the techies are planning on permamently blocking p2p and bittorrent. it seems they find it easier to block that and "patch the bandwidth problem" rather than they doing their job instead of hassling the clients with useless restrictions and charging $60/month for web browsing and e-mail only. word on the grapevine is they won't give "credit" (discounts on the monthly bills for those who were affected by the Internet blackouts and internal testing/experimenting) to "abusers" (p2p/bittorrenters) and especially people who complain, who they claim hassle them. They are refusing to give credit to you if you complain? this fascist crap has to stop now! how can we tolerate this crap?

Onelink has a customer's opinion section in their site. what better place for you to express what you think about their new "experiments" http://www.onelinkpr.com/apoyocliente_op.asp

the only way Onelink will get it in gear is if more people call to complain about the bandwidth limiting and demand they give you full access to the bandwidth without limiting it, and that includes p2p, and everything else you guys do. it is what you

yeah. it's obvious now, after what you said, that they ARE blocking ports. bittorrent specifically needs tcp and udp ports open; if one of them is closed (particularly udp) then your download speeds (and uploads) will suck, which is what's happening now. they're being pretty gay about this, and it's pissing me off. we're paying $60/month for crappy service that craps out even more when they start tweaking sh*t. what we need to do is ask to be given a credit for each time the service fouled up and we couldn't use the internet. in fact, we should ask to be given a credit for the nights the service has been giving us problems, which has been the last few nights. and what's worse, people here still believe the whole problem comes from miami. people: the problem is not with the miami line, the problem is with the techies and how, when they start blocking ports (tcp and udp) the lines get fouled up and the bandwidth suffers. i mean, they're blocking too much stuff, and this is what makes the line suffer (during the day, afternoon and well into the night). when you guys call the techies, ask to speak to the supervisor in charge. and ask to be given the credit. this will make them think twice about "experimenting" with the lines again and making us the clients suffer for it.
