Thread: Ping, dataloss problem

I'm using BSNL home 500 (2 Mbps) plan, and from about 2 months i'm having high ping. It has become worse right now and sometimes it takes 30seconds just to open websites like gmail, yahoo mail etc.


Now it seems I've packet loss problem too, as seen below

Next Problem

My router's DSL speed keeps changing automatically.

Router : UT-300R2 (no U)

I initially thought that it must be a problem with the cabling and so I tighened the connection in the RJ-11 connection box.

The speed increases for a while and then keeps varying as usual...








As it can be seen in the screenshots, the DSL link speed is below 2Mbps sometimes so I'm not able to use the BB to max. limit

Please suggest a solution.

I have been facing problems with the internet speeds from about 2 days. Mainly the loading of pics which used to occur easily and quickly is now comparatively slow.

I am also posting the ping results for the same websites that you have used above.

Even I used to have ping in the range of 300ms... But now sometimes it even goes upto to 1000ms and above which is truly bad....

... and also my BB has been becoming slow beginning from jan 09, the reason I didn't notice was , since I'm using On speed accelerator, I tho it was the reason, jus recently I came to know that it isn't the problem.

Hey!

I just heard that BSNL has reduced the monthly charge for new BB connections. Is it true?
Couldn't find any reliable information in the internet...

test from Reliance DSL

Cccs.PNG

tested till 1000+replies at 1MB load with 0.0000 % loss

1mbd.PNG


now that's called a connectivity, beat my record!!

flood pinged to 6000+replies

v3rt.png

in reliance DSL either day or night connectivity & speed remains constant.

plan speed don't affects ping time.

ok, if i say bad about reliance then u all r happy????????, now if i am getting the best DSL from reliance u have problem with that.

Atleast if I told that I wanted to change service providers, then it would have been approporite in this thread, whereas all I asked for is a solution to solve my problem.

not same,see with eyes open, my screen shots are replies from ur ping address that u have pinged.

cant u see in scrshot the address 69.60.7.199 & 69.162.110.114

that's a major problem dude only BSNL engineers can rectify that ur system is working fyne but ur network is suffering huge latency and data loss apart from BSNL no one can help, i was just helping u to clarify with my ping times.

yah dude, that data loss and latency is like pain in A**, i can suffer slow speeds but on latency i am very strict.

if they don't rectify ur problem better change ur ISP

No other service available in my area

Second problem : will update later . Kindly wait.

Yes, I'm using open DNS only for the past 1 year.

After this problem started, I used a traceroute for google.com. It specified a BSNL DNS server in delhi as 7ms,so I tried tat also, still no difference.

So, I've reverted back to open DNS

did u complained to bsnl about this????

dude that slight noise is the culprit, when i got my reliance dsl connected that jerk line men from reliance didn't connected the wire properly on their DSLAM then i checked my line speed it was just 3MbPS and also i was getting disturbance in dial tone after the complaint they came next day and changed the connector which was damaged by moisture after that line speed jumps up to 22MbPS!! just slight problem in conductivity resulted in 19MbPS loss!!!
