Picture of eBay from last night
Everything is working fine at the moment (both connections) so I would imagine that any tests would show everything is working as it should....only it isn't.
Any ideas guys?
EDIT:
Seems I spoke too soon, it has just happened again:
'' Download speed achieved during the test was - 0.59 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 4 Mbps-21 Mbps.
IP Profile for your line is - 10.46 Mbps
Upload speed achieved during the test was - 0.01Mbps
Additional Information:
Upstream Rate IP profile on your line is - 0.83 Mbps''
EDIT 2:
...and now it's back!
Think I've finally got to the bottom of my long standing evil connection...
'Download speedachieved during the test was - 6.66 Mbps'
Oh no pete ... you're on the Damien Server then ....
'Download speedachieved during the test was - 6.66 Mbps'
Noticed your post earlier and thought that you'd exceeded attempts but I did wonder what the response would be ;¬)
Ah if you were testing this morning then that mesage might have been due to database maintenance we were doing. We log tests to stop too many being done from a connection in a short space of time.
This would have been about 12.45 ish, the notice that you have exceeded the 5 times in an hour permitted is pretty clear. The 'abuse' notice I posted earlier was mid way through my second test? Did a couple after this and they worked fine.
Everything seems OK this evening on both of my connections.
''There was a problem checking for abuse, please check back later.''
Not sure what the 'abuse' relates to?
Anyway will continue running these tests to see if I can capture any other strange readings. At the moment things don't seem too bad but there is still definitely something not quite right.
''Packets lost [?] Average latency [?] Jitter [?]
4% 33.054ms 0ms''
Is 4% bad? and could it give me the issues I have been experiencing? The router was supplied by Freeola a while back yet I have only been experiencing these problems fairly recently. This setting must have been checked since installation. Will run the test on my other connection tomorrow and see if I get a similar reading.
Thanks for the help guys.
Connection itself seems OK again tonight, like I said earlier the symptoms are very intermittent. They can range from severe to non-existent! Just ran BT speedtest with the new settings on my router:
''Download speedachieved during the test was - 6.51 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 4 Mbps-21 Mbps.
IP Profile for your line is - 10.7 Mbps''
