Re: [DSL] VDSL - 25/7 Congestion

I have also just tried reconnecting several times, and tried to see if I land on a different gateway... I was only able to see two different addresses... There used to be more of these, no? or are these like the two bigass ERX's with a bunch of blades in them now?

206.248.154.104


206.248.154.122






206.248.154.104


as you can see huge variances... so the reconnect remedy isnt even working now...

It's not the ERX you land on, it's the AGAS which you won't be able to tell from your end.

Yeah I didn't think so now... Back in the day we could because they were separate IP's when you only had like 3-4 1gig AGAS, eh?

Good ole days hehe...

Which we are at the mercy of Bell.. again. I believe you get aggregated to Tek's RADIUS server by your realm from Bell's BAS concentrator (at torIX), then if authentication passes, Bell's concentrator will aggregate you over one of their LNS's (AGAS links) to Tek's ERXs.

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.

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.

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.

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?

Still seeing an average of 2% packet loss over the past 10 days. Seems to be only during peak times and is not due to saturation on my end (dual 25/10 mlppp with fairly light usage).

Can you confirm that this is now no longer related to the Bell links? Or is there still a capacity issue at certain times of the day?

I've been seeing such congestion since first day I switched to 25/7 last summer. I just never complained. I have the same configuration as Phibian (double 25/10 mlppp). It seems to me it's happening to all TekSavvy customers and only at peak hours of the day. So, what Bell/TekSavvy lifted last week is still a question.
