    Yes the bankholidays are over business reopens and the IBB connection we have to thier network starts timing out and going slow.
    Web pages timing out, antivirus updates and other downloads stopping as it says that the connection is lost, pings over 150 to games servers.
    Is it a minor glitch as they sort it out or is this the start of another 6 weeks of
    dial up or less then dail up from a broadbad supplier ?
    Can't wait to see what excuses they use this time.

    you dont even want to see what my connections are like to the outside world.

    whats even more interesting, doing a traceroute back into ibb's network from a machine on a relatively decent connection (10mbit)

    i guess i should have shown the traceroute to and from my box to the box that i have outside of ireland... the thing i find odd is that the outgoing and incoming path of the the traceroutes when inside of ibb's network i go through different machines, such as...

    i get random values of latency on the ibis gateway, at first i just thought it was the typical slowstart for tcp/ip but if i leave a session running pinging a machine my latency can vary from 30ms up to 3000ms or more and this happens randomly on a pinging session. its causing havoc to interactive ssh sessions to the outside world and its beginning to irritate me even more than it did over the previous months.

    another interesting thing that you can point out to ibb is that if you download one of their pdf's on their website (pick a largish one off their site) and you'll see that you get the full speed of whatever your connection is, i was under the impression that if there was a contention problem you would still be ratelimited at the mast before it hits their webservers. again i thought that if a mast is over subscribed then you shuoldnt be getting the full speed out of that mast to anything that isnt on the same mast. but if i download a file from esat or heanets mirrors the speed is just non-existant.

    do other people see the same crap on their connections? its kinda worrying when you get responses back from machines that you arent interested in.

    Jeeeeeeeeeez thats bad, looks like a router cannot handle a big enough state table.
