Buffering

[#1]

Sorry about that rongtw!
I can't see any similar issue for your connection I'm afraid so it is a bit of a mystery as to why your connection is buffering.
The only thing I can suggest trying is a direct connection to the Openreach modem to rule out the Netgear as being at fault.

Let us know if you have any further questions.

In your P2P client have you set a maximum upload speed. I'd suggest an absolute maximum of half of your upload sync speed.

Quote from: ricke17

I have tweaked the P2P client so the upstream runs slower.  But some clarity would be useful for me (and others who are following this thread).  When my upstream hits 2MB/s does this mean I am using almost all of the 20 out of my 80/20?  And would it be the same when the downstream hits 8MB/s in respect of the 80 out of the 80/20?

Your post suggests you might be mixing up bits and bytes.
2MBs (bytes per second) = 16Mbps (bits per second) which will indeed mean you are using almost all your upstream.

[#4]

What should I set the max at do you think?

[#5]

If the setting is in bytes try 1MBps first, if that doesn't improve things try 512kBps.

[#6]

It is in kB/s - so is 1024kB/s equivalent to 1MB?
Sorry it's all confusing.

[#7]

Yes, that is correct (well nearly - there is a small difference between the K and the k prefix (and the m and the M prefix) but not significant with what we are looking at here).

Great, thanks.
Rick.

Is there any reason why EVERY gateway i hop onto is a BNG 

[#10]

Yes, they are serving only 21CN so you're more likely to hit one. 20CN are only on the older AGs.

Ok as per the title , i play BF4 mainly on a few Favorite servers, Just lately have been having terrible time playing on 1 "Alcohol Is The Answer"  IP 85.236.100.102:19967  based in london Multiplay.co.uk.
A friend asked Multiplay Via a TICKET    what the problem was , their answer was the server wasnt the problem it was the ISP routing ?? causing me to have packet loss , even though i hopped gateway am now on PTW-AG03 it still the same 

[#12]

Multiplay is telling porkies, just a 3min trace yet seeing regular spikes to 500ms plus and the odd bit of loss

[#13]

Hi Gus , i downloaded Pingplotter to try myself .
just been running to BBC 5mins and it says 65% packet loss
am on gateway ptw-ag03.

[#14]

That result I don't get too BBC on ptw-ag03, but I no longer get the spikes and loss on multiplays either now that its very off peek.  Last night I would have said it was solely a multiplay fault but maybe not seeing your trace to BBC this morning.  I would report a fault and link it to this thread, as your BBC trace is very wrong.

[#15]

just done another to BBC to check    i did also multiplay but that was fine , will do multiplay again tonight
