BSNL Broadband Routing Issue [High Latency + Low Speeds]

[pkmishra]

So, how much more time will it take?

I've kinda been facing this problem too, it started about 6 months ago, got throught it mostly by resetting/turning off/on my modem multiple tiems till I got to the magical server, but it became pretty friggin terrible last week, where even youtube did not work. It's been kinda okay since yesterday though, but the latency has still not gone down. I still get a +200 ping to whatever I used to get previously. And to the u.s it's 600 ping, up from 300...quite sad. Will writing to the noc have an effect? have you guys tried that?

Writing to the noc should have some effect. I haven't had the time to do it, else I'd have done it. That said, i haven't been facing any issues for the past 2-3 days.

It s much better today..youtube is streaming @1.87mbps..back to normal.download speed to paris is showing @ 1.8mbps..only problem with ping shows 245ms to singtel and 300ms to paris.much better.....

All seems fine here for the past few days.

Yeah it's been okay since friday. Latency is still pretty sad (TT my latency used to be around 50-100 for s'pore servers.), but I guess one problem at a time .The next bit I need to get fixed is my upload speed which is capped at 256..

Thanks everyone, the issue is finally resolved I guess as I'm on my regular gateway with amazing pings (of course, to local servers, including to Google) and my speeds are back to normal =)

Hopefully, it shouldn't happen again..

Out of interest, what are your pings like now?

Glad you asked, it's the same as they were on the 'magical' gateway I was talking about all the time, maybe someone from BSNL indeed saw your posts on the previous page =)

Just to add on, the pings aren't that much lower as I expected, like for UK, I'm getting around 250 while the other gateway gives me 170~190. Can't complain much here, it took them 2 months to fix local latencies, I can't afford to complain again for this.

Back to being awful since wednesday (29th). Huge pings to any server outside india; heavy packet loss. Somewhat bearable for local indian servers.

Such bullsh*t, can't get anything useful done; torrents are slow (even with high S/L ratios and 500+ seeders), web pages take forever to load and laddering in SC2 is just too risky to bother with.

The randomness of when everything takes a sh*t is also quite frustrating, as is the whole connect and magically get a good/bad gateway.

Off to bed.
