Is congestion still an issue?
Those of us on the fence waiting to order would like to know!  |

Yes, there still appears to be nightly congestion on the 25/7 service. Last night the max downstream was down from 25 to 17, but services were impacted worse than that indicated; neither TwitchTV nor YouTube could stream without buffering.

kudos:17 | Its getting silly, to be an issue for so long...
I wonder if I can get teksavvy to modify my account that I have no dsl login, just sync and reduce the price... I wont be using any bandwidth, i'll use a Bell login. |

Ottawa, ON | just curious, while bandwidth is being starved, is there any packet loss?
i need to dump cable because of the pathetic 1mbit upload and i'm ok with going down to 10-15mbit at peak as long as there's no packet loss or latency increase. |

There is some packetloss. It's hard to measure because it seems to be primarily on large packets. So you could ping something at the default packet size until the cows come home and that doesn't have any problems, but then you run a speed test and can visually see stalls caused by packetloss. While working with wireshark yesterday, I also saw some TCP retransmits despite not being able to spot any packetloss via standard pings.

The ping -n 100 -1000 tests I've done:
Packets: Sent = 100, Received = 98, Lost = 2 (2% loss) |
|
| Over the past ten days I've got an average packet loss of about 2%. Sometimes it is fine, sometimes it is pretty bad (bad enough to impact VoIP call quality). I'm on MLPPP in case that matters. Would be nice to get this resolved. |

kudos:17 | Yeah, when I tested a few weeks ago I was noticing about 1-2% packet loss as well.
Seems to jive with what others are seeing. |

North York, ON | any updates on this? I am also waiting to order |

| reply to crazypants
So I guess, (having read through this thread) that this is why my VSDL performance has been slowly getting worse and worse over the last month or so? When I upgraded I was getting 20Mb/s, but the best I get now is 10 on a good day.

Next week Your answer is imprecise - which is atypical of an engineer....but then again you didn't go to Skule(tm)
Which is it:
a) You're going to hear from Bell next week IF they're fix the rate limiting sometime in the future (ie. when hell freezes over)?
or
b) Bell will have the problem fixed next week? |

I am getting 2.5mb/1mb on a 25/10 connection... Yet when I switch to a bell login it's all hunky dory... have the AGAS lines been balanced out yet?
