 | reply to rclout It's hard to say what's going on. I did notice that from my location here in CT many of the pingtest servers that have always worked fine seemed to be unable to receive or send packets and yet other pingtest servers worked just fine and graded my Cox connection with a Line Quality grade of A. Also, the line quality test here at DSLR showed 0% packet loss and very low latency. Pingplotter shows 0% packet loss and a steady low latency turn-around time of less than 20 ms to my usual ping target in NYC. I know it doesn't answer the question about the sluggish connection you are experiencing but I wonder if there is also a temporary issue with some of the pingtest.net installation(s)? -- Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.
