 | [Exede] Back in the Slow Lane I turned off Exede's modem for two days, and received a different IP address.
WB-1: 163
I was using one of the 75.106.62.xxx addresses,
now I'm using 184.20.92.xxx
The "75.106.62.xxx" addresses were originally with WB-1 users...and the other with Exede-5/12 users.
When using the "75" address, it worked fine, now coming back to "184" its a "stop, wait, wait, go" process to access pages.
Here's what Google's gmail shows |

 | Back on "75" address format...have to wait-n-see about speed issue, which may have been related to students back in school, doing their "Internet Homework"
I flashed DD-WRT into the ASUS RT_N10+ router I use to rule out an issue with ASUS's QOS, if any.
Upload Speed tests look OK for Exede-5, from 4:23 PM to 8:28 PM

 | Back on 12-17-2012, I reported that this Exede router-pathway using 10.74.255.249 created issues, for myself, and another person.
I'm hooked direct to desktop computer, and here's a 10 PM CDT tracert to DNS server:
C:\>tracert 184.63.64.xxx
Tracing route to 184.63.64.xxx over a maximum of 30 hops
1 * * * Request timed out. 2 * * * Request timed out. 3 * * * Request timed out. 4 * * * Request timed out. 5 * * * Request timed out. 6 * * * Request timed out. 7 * 2332 ms 620 ms 184.63.64.xxx
Trace complete.
I have no idea how long I've been using 10.74.255.249 pathway...but my gut feeling its a DNS issue...I had to use Opera to post this.
Sometimes, loading a web page takes a long, long time...and sometimes, it don't load. Gmail stalled out, for instance.
Here's a trace to Wildblueworld
C:\>tracert 204.10.141.160
Tracing route to server.wildblueworld.com [204.10.141.160] over a maximum of 30 hops:

8]
7 * * * Request timed out.
etc/etc/etc...
30 * * * Request timed out.
Trace complete.
I have FireFox (Waterfox) configured to not store DNS address info...so, if DNS server/etc is not working...stuff happens, as in wait/wait/stall/nothing. |

I re-connected to router and got IP address flipped from "75.106.61.xxx" to "184.63.212.xxx"
Interesting, tracert to same DNS server is different in number of hops:
Via "184.63.212.xxx"
C:\>tracert 184.63.64.xxx
Tracing route to 184.63.64.xxx over a maximum of 30 hops
1 <1 ms <1 ms 1 ms DD-WRT [192.168.1.1]
2 * * * Request timed out. (SB-2 Modem)
3 654 ms 635 ms 640 ms 10.74.101.1
4 630 ms 657 ms 673 ms 10.74.10.2
5 643 ms 640 ms 633 ms 184.63.64.xxxx
Trace complete.
On tracert using 75.106.61.xxx, there were six hops (previous post), instead of three.
Still using "10.74.255.249" pathway on further out traces:
C:\>tracert 24.25.224.142
Tracing route to 24.25.224.142 over a maximum of 30 hops

Hence, why did it take three additional hops to reach DNS server on "75" IP address. |

I would contact our Technical Team about this to see if they can provide any other insight or communication about how this works. They should be able to work. You can reach them at 866-945-3258 option 2. Thanks. -- Exede Zac Exede Internet Social Media Escalations |

 | said by Exede Zac:That's a good question....I would contact our Technical Team I'm using the "184.63.212.xxx" IP address currently...without an issue. It's a three hop path to the DNS server, and it works fine.
When I was using the 75.106.61.220 IP address, there were six hops instead of three to DNS server; and I had stall outs/etc. Download/Upload speed was not the issue, once I was connected to a site.
My Guess:
1. Some router on the six hop route to DNS server was dropping these DNS lookup packets.
The FireFox (Waterfox) browser I use is configured to not save previously seen sites' IP addresses...so, when Waterfox is reopened, it must get these sites' IP addresses.
If it happens again, I'll just try to acquire another IP address, which has three hops to DNS server.
Just pass this information along to them...thanks |
