Trouble with mumble

Its been on/off awful for ages now.
I have checked my line, router and local wifi settings. They are all optimal. BB speed test, sn/noise, crc/hec errors, signal strength/link quality all good.
For some reason plusnet hates mumble. Its never worked well and routinely craps out UDP and even TCP it sucks balls.
Other brits I play with are having no issues. None of them are on plusnet.  Embarrassed
Here's my router stats:

Yeah, I know. Its PL and yeah they are DDOS a lot, but as I said, I am the only one with an issue.
Anything you can do to help me out? Cos I am really reliant on coms.
I can't see any reason why this would be terrible. I mean 140ms ping is not great but its not unusuable.
I've turned my mumble client/protocol/compression settings to lowest and packets are at 20ms.
Still not very good and worse at peak times ofc.
My profile was reset recently it seems, beforehand I had interleaving on. Do I still have all that jazz?
I have definitely not been having issues with my connection, just mumble. So packets, latency, QOS/shaping, Russians .. something else?

Re: Trouble with mumble

Odd routing you have to it, different from a trace of mine.  Never used that voice coms so no idea but that trace is very odd.

Re: Trouble with mumble

I am literally retarded.
Here's my traceroute from my actual IP not some crappy web service in god knows where (lul).
So yeah it looks like the issue is beyond the realm of plusnet's ability to fix.  Undecided

Re: Trouble with mumble

Ok wtf.
This is ridiculous ... I am hearing people speaking fine so I am getting majority of my packets ..
But speaking, I am just garbled noise to folks. Its incredible frustrating. What gives?

I'd help you fix your issue, but you fly for Pandemic Legion and I'm afraid it's just bait for a 40 supercap hotdrop...

Can you get us a wireshark capture of the mumble traffic?  We need to make sure it's been prioritised correctly.

Pffft. I don't fly for PL. I'm a waffle.  Grin I aspire to bait for a 40 supercap hotdrop ..

Re: Trouble with mumble

these are small samples and for the mumble my audio seemed ok so possibly best if I try and do it when it actually craps out.
unless all you are looking for is basic packet scheduling info .. ?

Re: Trouble with mumble

This all only really became an issue when you reset all those profiles (including mine) a week or two back ..
It had been consistently ok before then.
