Quote from: chrcoluk kitz you sure is congestion?
There's something for sure - look at my BQM generated over the past 24hrs.
Previously I was on lo0.12.central12.ptw-bng01.plus.net [195.166.128.172] - which has been a nice green flat line for over a week.
I auto came back up at 7.30 on lo0-central10.pcl-ag07.plus.net. That was showing definite signs of congestion so I switched gateways at about 12:30am
Am now on lo0.11.central11.ptw-bng01.plus.net [195.166.128.171]
Quote thats one of the 3 gateways with low users I expect those gateways are probably now set to take 95% or more of all new connections to rebalance.

Yep.. thats what I thought too and I checked that last night.. in fact double checked to make sure I hadnt read it wrong.
However... notice that although Im on the ptw-bng01 gateway - note the different central pipe and different ip... so although I may be on the same gateway - Im on a different central pipe and its possible that some of those may be more congested that others?
Whilst Im no longer showing red dropped packets... Those yellow spikes for increased latency certainly arent me.
------------------
As an aside... note also that the routing is different... and although both the following connections are via the ptw-bng01 gateway, they go to my server via a different peer point.

By removing the quote you have made this post completely irrelevant so you may as well delete this one as well as the one berating Plusnet that I was trying to defend.

(Note that the forum rule linked in the moderators note specifically says it only applies to the immediately preceding post - with an exception if your post is on a new page when you can't just scroll up)
The rule is there to stop huge posts containing quotes that are just not needed when people are reading down the page of posts.

IMO there's nothing wrong with using a quote when it's justified even if it is immediately after the post in question.
you may be quoting just one particular part of a post for example.

Edit: I have just gone back to my ZyXEL router that I had before getting a TG582n (for reasons I'm not allowed to say here :)) and everything is fine. It was an absolute joy how fast it connected compared to the TG582n.

Better, perhaps, and within the rules, to quote the specific part of the preceeding post to which you are referring if you feel that such clarity is required:
Quote from: djh06 I'm seriously thinking of leaving,this is the third time now since April.
I'm assuming here, of course, that you originally quoted the full preceeding post as per the moderator's note.

At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.
Opinions expressed in forum posts are those of the poster, others may have different views.

Also, what changed from when the bng gateways used to operate with about 50,000 users each, but more recently they get up to about 75,000 users each?

Quote from: chenks76 the mods are a little over zealous with this though IMO

you may be quoting just one particular part of a post for example.
Highlighting part of a long post which you are addressing by a part quote is specifically allowed.
Its full quotes that are totally unnecessary and are banned.

Quote from: goldenfibre ... if plusnet cannot cope with congestion then I am off to other isp probably zen fibre........ This is the third times plusnet issues this month.
Zen are also upgrading the edge routers - Not to dissimilar to PN's Vendor equipment Zen are also not immune as their recent 7 hour outage highlighted.
The most disappointing aspect to this the "switch the router off and go away for 2 hours" message that 7up paraphrases the feeling well.
