    I never got to check my pings after the call last night as I went out to see Star wars but giving me the whole they dont gurentee good pings all the time but bad pings for 5 days in a row is not acceptable. i`ll check it out tonight and see how it is and if its bad it will be monday before I can get on to them again. I dont have a home phone line and it cose mt 6 quid to ring them on my mobile after 6pm just to get my pings improved.

    but bad pings for 5 days in a row is not acceptable

    I had the same problem / and still do - my pings can go from 50 to 450 to 900 - which makes it impossible to play games - they sent out the "man" and they moved me to another reciever in phibsborough... things improved but not greatly...one reason they gave me was if a building crane swings into the line of sight ..... :(

    Hi Lads

    I emailed this to IBB support but thought I would throw it up here anyway:



    I connect to a CS:Source server, 82.138.226.130, regularly. While the ping times are generally very good, I keep getting severe instances of lag every 2 or 3 minutes.. It seems that there is quite a bit of packet loss.




    I done a ping test to the server and got the following results:


    First test:

    Out of curiosity I decided to ping another server as I thought it may have been something to do with one particular hop to the above:

    So I test it with www.boards.ie out of curiosity. Once again ping were very good but itere was a bit of packet loss and the odd spike:

    well 2 call to them and still no joy for me.

    6 months with them and 3 months worth of provblems!

    I think they should introduce a cap to all users this no cap thing is not working. Im looking at caped sercives now as an option.

    what difference is a cap?? u blaming heavy downloaders on your crap connection?? not true, there is enough bandwidth for everyone, just IBB are unreliable, doesnt matter where you live or what mast you are on, u can experience a bad connection from them, nothing to do with heavy downloaders


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,042 ✭✭✭spooky donkey


    Well I dont know what else it can be. Every couple of months it goes bad again. Tiger woods could hit the transmitter from my house with a good drive so its not line of site.

    Also i get good pings at 2am, no use then.

    heavy downloaders would have their pcs on at that hour happily downloading away. its just IBB , they arent reliable full stop


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan


    Ibb are pissing me off to say they least they dont give you a proper answer usually blame your router, rang 4 times this week no call back. At present i am gettin a connection of 190 both up and down,Just over isdn speeds.:mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 370 ✭✭Adey2002


    I'm having exatly the same problem as Jesus Thats Gre ... Pings are ok, but every couple of minutes it times out. Not very good for gaming at all. It's not a problem my end because I do a ping to my local node and no problems. It's something beyond that that is causing the problem.

    Garfield,
    Heres some info for you on the problem at the moment, if you could look into it I would appreciate it. I have sent emails to support, but they are being ignored.

    Every 30-40 seconds, I lose connection for a couple of seconds.. Not very good for web phone or gaming etc..
    I did a tracert/ping and got...
    Pinging my local node (SIAC - 83.141.84.65) returns 100% at 3ms - perfect.
    Pingint the next hop (3rock - 62.231.52.169) returns 100% at max 20ms - still perfect
    I'm not sure if this has anything to do with it but the next hop switches between rte 62.231.32.182 and 62.231.52.186 when retrying the tracert. RTE returns 100%, but the other one times out about 15-20% of the time.

    Aynway, if you could have a look I would appreciate it.

    Hi folks,
    1mb Breeze on TreeRock mast. Will I have a Fixed IP address?

    BTW:
    Thursday night last, TreeRock was covered by a very mist/fog /whatever. I had no RipWave. Will it be the same on Breeze?

    If my experience is anything to go by, you most likely will have a fixed IP address.

    Three Rock may have had a bad hair day on Thursday. As shown by
    my automatic monitoring, my Breeze connection dropped some time
    before noon, and didn't recover until after 22:00 when I noticed and
    power-cycled the POE box. Graph should be attached.

    I've asked for an explanation. I'll not hold my breath.

    it looks like smokeping that he is running to monitor his connection, i use smokeping to monitor my connection and i noticed my connection dropped out for about an hour that day as well. it wasnt gone for more than an hour.

    after a few phone calls last week ibb came out and upgraded my equipment(im still miffed as to why they dont do this without me nagging them for the last 6 months but anyway)-guys were on time, came prepared and got the upgrade done swiftly-i was installed increased to 2megs from 512 and not only is it obviously a good deal faster speed wise but it appears to be more consistent....

    im not too demanding, i mean anything over 100k seems nice atm but i havnt had any really bad speeds at all aka 6-10k on 512k for long stretches...

    im on 3 rock and the service seems well solid-maybe its the vl gear, maybe its the upgrade, maybe its the product but its a big improvement and will certainly stop me moaning...for now :)

    So where is this help that's always at hand?

    Its not very fourth comming these days. That was why I started my own thread with my own problem. I also have all the info I need on that thread for when I ring tech support. When ever I ring now for tech support I get them to look at it to see all my trace routes and bad pings.

    that first hop alone looks totally ropey.

    as an aside - i didn't think anyone on ballycoolin was on 2mb. most importantly, i know I'm not....
