Help (packet loss?)


Blako

Recommended Posts

All computers in the house are suffering from terrable download speeds.  Download tests show frequent pauses between bursts of good speed which point to packet loss.  Restarting the modem and router have no effect.  PunkBuster also kicked me for "loosing key packets."  The average ping to a variety of websites is 60-100ms (which is good).

Notice the two time-outs.

The anoying thing is when the loading page just hangs there for 10 seconds. :tickedoff: Any suggestions?  :cry:

Max Pause is the longest pause recorded between data transfers during the download speed test. This should be a very small number. If not, it could indicate Internet congestion or a bad Internet connection.

For comparison sake can someone go to http://myspeed.visualware.com/voip/ and check their advanced results and post max/avg download pause?

October  UPDATE...

The tech support did find a cable so loose at the street that he touched it and it fell out.  Thats been fixed.  I am noticing something that affects online gaming the most but is also appearent on DL and UL tests.  While in BF2 with a ping a 20ms, and my bro playing WoW (ping 170) on another computer we both loose connection at the same time only for it to reconnect 8-15 seconds later.  This also happens if only one computer is online and is noticable on uploads a little more then downloads.  Testmy.net and another speed test both result in taskmanager looking like this.  What could cause this?
