BL4CK OPS V3TRN Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Hi Team Netduma Just wanted to share my ping plotter stats from this evening which I think don't look too good , also seems congestion control had no impact . The test was wireless on Mac ISP sky with 60DL and 18UP This image was taken with sliders at 100/100 with idle line and no saturation Image below is streaming Netflix UHD again with sliders at 100/100 And finally still streaming but with sliders at70/70 I am no expert at reading these things , however I am not seeing any impact from the CQ and in general my line looks pretty crappy ! ... any feedback would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 15, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 15, 2022 Are ALL devices connected to the router or are some still connected to the sky hub? How were the sliders set, always, auto, never? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BL4CK OPS V3TRN Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 Yes everything is connected to the router , slider was always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 16, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 16, 2022 What was the interval you had set on PingPlotter? Are you using PPPoE, VLAN, IPv6 etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BL4CK OPS V3TRN Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 interval was set at 1 second . Ipv6 is ticked on both sky modem and the xr500 . not sure on PPPoe but the modem mentions MER ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 16, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 16, 2022 Leave it as 2.5 as 1 can give some inaccurate results and retest please, if you're not using DHCP identifiers on the router then the hub will be handling that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BL4CK OPS V3TRN Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 Hi fraser I have completed some additional testing and loaded onto a spreadsheet as below , the XL is self explanatory I even tested the SKY Modem separately. My take home from this is the QOS is not working as it should be . All the tests were completed in 10 min intervals . The appears be be no difference with any settings and if anything the SKY modem seems to be slightly more stable . Please advise yours thoughts .

BL4CK OPS V3TRN Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 Fraser just some additional info , If I complete a simple speed test the QOS does work . i.e. I can throttles the network with the sliders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted January 16, 2022 Administrators Share Posted January 16, 2022 Thanks for the table and all the information, from my interpretation of the results you have provided it appears that: Idle, without the router, your ping fluctuates around 15ms going from 14 at the minimum to 29.3 at the highest, so that isn't ideal. Saturated, with the router, your ping fluctuates around 20ms going from ~14 at the minimum to 34.6 at the highest, so it looks like the router is preventing any rises above 5ms from your naturally fluctuating ping. Seems like the router is doing a pretty good job of keeping the ping rises down as much as possible considering but it does highlight that you have quite a bit of instability on the line.

BL4CK OPS V3TRN Posted January 17, 2022 Author Share Posted January 17, 2022 Thanks Fraser for the overview , so item 1) is not ideal and I should approach the ISP ? is it fair to say there should be very little fluctuation if there is nothing on the network ?

Yes absolutely, on a stable line when it is truly idle it should really only vary by a few ms, 15ms is too much for an idle connection so would definitely see if there is anything you can do about it - be warned though that they are very unlikely to consider this an issue worth pursuing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
