Re: Considering getting oOma to replace MJ Here are some results from Houston, TX to Austin, TX:
Ping ---DL--- ---UL--- 47ms 48.09m .94m 48ms 5.13m .94m 48ms 123.69m .94m 47ms 66.23m .94m 47ms 79.99m .94m 48ms 93.52m .94m
I wonder why the DL speeds fluctuate all over the place. And I don't know if it's the ISP or what. Just trying to narrow it down. But it seems that yesterday when the phone calls were horrible, other I-Net performance was also flaky. Specifically: PC-1, was playing I-Tunes oldies and had numerous pauses. PC-2 was downloading videos with many pauses.
Could be I am overloading the I-Net.
Still I wonder why the big variances in the DL speeds and would that have an effect on MJ.

I wonder why the (AT&T Uverse) DL speeds fluctuate all over the place. U-verse tries to use ancient copper twisted pairs to your house from a not-so-nearby VRAD to push far higher data rates than can be had. Lots of retransmitted packets due to bit error rates. And overall crappy design concept becuase AT&T was trying to compete with cable modems which benefit from wideband coax to your house. And with Verizon's FIOS. AT&T (SBC renamed) is all marketing BS and no honest products. |
