I've been with Plusnet for about 5 months now and the first 4 months have been great. I've had a really stable connection and low latency to my favourite CoD 4 servers. That has changed in the last month, unfortunately. When gaming in peak times now, my ping goes from the 30-40ms range to 150ms. Sometimes it stays high for hours and across different servers, other times it's only temporary, lasting a few seconds. I've completed a few traceroutes and the results are as follows;
Tracing route to DS13 [94.76.255.112]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 192.168.0.1
2 47 ms 99 ms 76 ms lo0-plusnet.ptn-ag2.plus.net [195.166.128.53]

Can anybody advise me further please?
Kind regards

Been on BBYW Pro for 2 years. Last few weeks I've had really bad pings at peak times. Currently 175 - on servers I've played for ages.

13 45 ms 41 ms 44 ms 91.191.158.39
My ping sat at 150 all game while my fellow UK players on the server were at 30-50ms.
Can i get an official reply on this, "....yes we know it's happening and we are looking at sorting it out". I use my broadband to play a lot of online games, so a good ping is paramount, otherwise i feel i'm not getting what i'm paying you for. I understand that my broadband speed may vary at times but my latency should not, unless you are overselling your bandwith.
Kind regards

Again my ping sat around 130-150ms the whole time of playing, others on the server all pinged under 80ms, why is this happening?

@Rixla - Do you still get the same traceroute when you reboot your router?

So it definitely looks as though the traffic is being miss-managed.
This only happens in the evenings obviously, The support team have accepted my request to have cod4 traffic prioritized correctly (Can't understand why it wasn't on a two year old game) Could all the issues with the network and pipes dropping have caused games to be thrown out of the correct traffic management categories?

I'll test it again while gaming tonight.
Quote from: bonmeggie I join a game and its 60 MS, then it jumps up to 150ms + and just stays there
Yeah this is the exact same experience i'm having, it's really frustrating!

Tonight is the first night i've played in over a month that my ping has stayed normal. I don't know if others have experienced this too? If so, whatever you have done has remedied the problem, if not, do whatever you've done to my connection to theirs too!

I'll see how it goes over the next few nights.

I've given my mac code to my new isp, seriously dissapointed pn.
For the sake of all the customers still paying money for your service I hope you get this sorted out soon; it's a joke.
