Popular Post Zennon Posted February 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2018 Fraser has asked me to post a guide for PingPlotter, I will keep it simple like myself, here goes.. Download PingPlotter Here Type a close IP to your region I usually use twitter.com or .co.uk but as i write this both were connecting to the US as I am in the UK I have set the ping plot to bbc.co.uk. Typing bbc.co.uk into the target address bar leaving the interval at 2.5 then pressing enter on your keyboard or the go button. A congested line looks like this. You can see the ping in real time, the ping numbers are listed to the left of the plot. I achieved this by setting my congestion control sliders to 100% each so that the duma was not helping with local congestion thus saturating the line. If you have a ISP issue from say a Intel PUMA 6 based CPU in a modem or ISP congestion an BT line fault (US/World infrastructure alternative) or even a faulty Ethernet cable, RJ11 or faulty Master socket face plate your line may look like this even when you set your sliders lower. This is a line idle with minimal traffic being used that does not use a PUMA 6 based chipset or have any network issues. This is a line downloading a full width saturating the line but using the duma congestion control at 70% each way If you would like to post a bad result to the forum or save a plot to prove to your ISP there is an issue after ruling out your own network then press File and click on save image and this will give you an image of the GUI at that moment for you.

xlr8r Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 These are my Ping plotter graphs. Very little difference on mine...? Dunno what that weird drop was about right in the middle of top graph ? Clicking the red triangle below it states BBC changed IP address ...? Im with BT Infinity 2 (60Mbps DL, 13Mbps UL) , Unlocked HG612 Openreach Modem. 1. With QoS turned OFF (or, equivalent to sliders being at 100%) 2. With QoS turned ON (sliders at 85% each) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 13, 2018 Administrators Share Posted March 13, 2018 It doesn't look like you were trying to saturate the network in these tests. If you don't then they'll look very similar as the network is idle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT From AB Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Anyone know how to fix this 1st hop packet loss to the XR500 thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted March 20, 2018 Administrators Share Posted March 20, 2018 Hi JT, all you need to be focusing on is the graph. You're not having any packet loss and the ping looks very stable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT From AB Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I was thinking the same, thanks NetDuma Fraser for the quick reply you are very helpful on these forums. Netduma Fraser and Netduma Jack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blameless Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Why does my graph starts at 80ms!! Does that mean something wrong with my line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG__DOG Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Why does my graph starts at 80ms!! Does that mean something wrong with my line? does it drop down to a reasonable ping that you are expecting or does it stay around 80? Netduma Admin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennon Posted May 5, 2018 Author Share Posted May 5, 2018 Why does my graph starts at 80ms!! Does that mean something wrong with my line? As BD has asked what does it drop too? as it can start high for some reason then quickly find the correct ping.

hellfish89 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 This is my ping plotter graph during a (PES) online game (sliders on 100/100(? Anybody knows what you can read from it? @Kingcomic7 Many thanks! And this is one with sliders (50/50): Update: I discovered that the peaks are not created by the position of the sliders. They come up when other streaming devices like e.g. Amazon Prime or Netflix are turned on. Kingcomic7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you include information on your QoS (Congestion Control) settings, as well as your total bandwidth etc. Thanks. Kingcomic7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE1305 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Hello everybody, how do I know if my Fritzbox 7582 has a PUMA 6 Chipset or not? Here is a screenshot from wiki. Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted September 25, 2018 Netduma Staff Share Posted September 25, 2018 Generally just typing in the model of your modem with 'Puma 6' after it will tell you if your modem has a Puma 6 chipset, since there's always people talking about it. I looked into the Fritzbox 7580 and I don't think it has a Puma 6. You'd be able to tell due to the amount of complaints in their technical support forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 1, 2018 Administrators Share Posted October 1, 2018 C'est un peu haut et en bas mais en général ça va. Votre ping est également très faible, donc cela ne devrait pas vous causer beaucoup de problèmes. It's a bit up and down but generally it is okay. Your ping is also very low so It shouldn't think this would cause you many issues at all. Cécé 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triumph808 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Both tests were done with 1GB internet speeds from Comcast. Hardwired speedtest yields roughly 600 mb/s download and 41 upload HARDWIRED and 380-400 mb/s download and 41 upload on 5GHZ WiFi. Devices used: Netgear CM 1000 modem and Nighthawk XR500 router. Only 1 device was connected running this ping plotter test and no other devices or applications were using the internet connection during these tests. -his is with my internet hardwired from my Router to my laptop. CAT7 ethernet cable This is with 5GHZ channel WiFi from my laptop. Distance from Laptop to Router is 4 feet with no walls or obstructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Staff Netduma Jack Posted October 4, 2018 Netduma Staff Share Posted October 4, 2018 Your line is looking pretty steady, you've only got probably 5ms jitter on those tests. Those red lines are probably indicative of the host changing or something like that - it's way too regular to actually be packet loss. Only a couple of spikes on the WiFi test too. You're looking good to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennon Posted October 4, 2018 Author Share Posted October 4, 2018 You have packet loss on the destination, to rule in out the Google server I would try twitter.com. You need to be testing using cable and definitely gaming with Ethernet also the packet loss could be down to using Wifi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
