Dear Mr Ireland,
Thank you for your request.
Having reviewed the data you have supplied, it would appear the the issue is outside of our control.
The servers with the highest latency are not on our network;
teln.lon.portlane.net 791 ms
te-2-1.sto3.se.portlane.net 815 ms
sweden.clanwarz.com 801 ms
If you have any further questions please contact us again.
Kind regards,
[mremoved]
I've also tryed contacting the ventrilo people but they just closed the ticket right away. so im guessing if its this bad portlane node thats the problem then whos job is it to sort it out.

You are correct in thinking that, there's a long thread on the same issue (affecting a different program though) here
I think it's Portlane's job to sort out, however they may be reluctant to do so for various reasons.

Re: Problems connecting to friends ventrilo servers, Tracert inside.

We have switched off peering via LINX for Portlane. Traffic is now via Level3, which means no loss right now, but slightly increase latency, which is an unfortunate tradeoff.
We have not tested this in peak yet. Can you let us know how you get on this evening with this?

Re: Problems connecting to friends ventrilo servers, Tracert inside.

I think I speak for the majority when I say that I'd prefer ~50ms latency all day than having 700+ms (and the slowness) in the evening Smiley
It looks fine so far, although the traffic to thepiratebay and Mumble form the other thread seems to be going over a bt link and not Level3 at the minute.
