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!
''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''
''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.
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.
Noticed your post earlier and thought that you'd exceeded attempts but I did wonder what the response would be ;¬)
'Download speedachieved during the test was - 6.66 Mbps'
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 ....
