lazy8 Posted March 16, 2005 CID Share Posted March 16, 2005 Whats does it mean that I failed these two last things? I passed all the rest but does this really mean anything that I failed these? http://www.dslreports.com/quality/nil/1680513 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falco Posted March 17, 2005 CID Share Posted March 17, 2005 It means that you experienced some packet loss in your ping route. These are in locations in different parts of the country and there isn't anything you can do. If you notice the san jose router on the west coast had 27 % loss. This one always has loss. I have the same problem with this router myself all the time and i am pinging from Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanBuren Posted March 17, 2005 CID Share Posted March 17, 2005 quote from http://www.dslreports.com/quality/nil/1680513 "Before drawing conclusions, read this carefully: This is just one test (from two points on the net), over one short time. Results shown here need to be added to what you know to be the problems (if any) on your link. Multiple tests at different times may be needed to explore some classes of problems. Test stability: If 'Min Latency' measure is not ascending as you go down through the first three rows, then your link was suffering bursts of congestion and changes in character during the tests, so any conclusion drawn about your last hop latency is invalid. A consistently lossy line may exhibit problems at higher bandwidth streams, but not lower ones. The 'medium' and 'low' bandwidth tests need an equally fast return path, so DSL or cable connections with low upload speeds, for example BA 640/90 ADSL, may show a fail at the 128k medium level. Look for low to zero packet loss, and no increase in packet loss with increasing speed stream. High latencies (100ms and above) are fine, if you are not located close (in internet terms) to East Coast, USA, these tests are not judging latency between you and us. We've estimated your default gateway (first hop) ping time. You may also verify this first hop latency figure by running your own ping command. Ideally, the measured time should be as low as possible.. High latencies, despite your fast line, may indicate extensive hidden (tunneled) routing between you, and your internet gateway - perhaps because your ISP POP is not in the same city as you."
