Columbus, OH routing issuesI've had these redundant hops for a few weeks now...I figured they would start going away. I was supposed to have a tech out a week ago but they showed up late and I had to leave. Anyone else had this issue or know how to fix it?
Take note the arrows are pointing to duplicate hops that happen every trace.

In Pickerington with the same trashy routing. From another thread it seems this is the way WOW wants it to be because they moved their routing to Knology's newer equipment. But the result is bad. The switch has nearly doubled my ping to Microsoft's Azure servers. Used to be able to hit 2-3 US data centers at less than 50ms now I never have more than 2 at less than 100 and they're usually in the 70's. Couple that with the failure of my 2nd Ultra gateway in less than 3 months and I'm right on the edge of leaving WOW. Here's the thread where it was first discussed... » new routing in Chicago Area.. |

Well, I've started to run into some routing strangeness in Gahanna also. Looks like I do not have to route at all to www.pingplotter.com (216.92.151.75). I'll be opening a ticket tomorrow and see how they respond/address the issue.
The real bummer is that it has substantially increased the path/latency in the path for my vpn to work, and the throughput has dropped noticeably. |

I see the other post and it seems this is supposed to be an "upgrade". I am getting worst latency and occasional packet loss since this update. I'm curious how much performance i'm losing simply because the path to server gets traced TWICE through knology servers. |

I'm curious how much performance i'm losing simply because the path to server gets traced TWICE through knology servers. Yep, like I said it basically doubled my ping to MS Azure servers. And I too had some recent packet loss issues. I don't know why this is seen as an upgrade but that's what Dan said. Need to see another response from him in here further explaining it because it's pretty annoying. |

Thank you for bringing that to everyones attention. Now is there a reason there are so many hops to get outside of WOWs network? On TWC it takes me 7 hops including my router to get outside of TWC/RRs network. 12 seems like a little much.... |

And, would you look at that, twice as many hops = twice as much latency. Any logical reasoning for this, Dan? Is this temporary as stuff is moved from one set of equipment to another? Will probably be setting up with a new ISP this week unless it's something temporary. |

to Just_Dan
He never specifically listed any hops as duplicated, just a general statement that it seems like it took forever to get outside WOW's network, and that it seemed to be duplicated. |
|
|
to boopin
Realistically it isn't twice as much latency since most of the routers are probably physically close and none of them seem to have a huge increase in latency between the hops but still it seems like a lot of hops and seems like a lot of points for failure. |

All I know is my latency has doubled since this routing appeared. To speedtest.net servers (just noticed that over the weekend), Azure servers, anything where I'm used to seeing a number, it's doubled. |

to josh71983
The difference with WOW is that they're exposing the hops instead of hiding them in MPLS/VPLS? |
|
|
I thought that might be the case, but there is no MPLS lables on the traffic until it hits Level 3's network. |
|

to OSUGoose
He said that to take note of the arrows pointing to duplicate hops.
In his example 76.73.168.65 and 76.73.164.65 are not duplicates, as the third octet is different as Dan pointed out. |

I understand the need for lower latency for such things as VoIP and online gaming, but to be upset over 50ms when all you're doing is pushing data to the cloud is a bit much. |
|
|
to josh71983
Looks like those changes made it to the Lewis Center area last night. Now going through all of the Knology hops and no more RFC1918 space (visible) in the trace. Still my first hop outside of my network is not able to be pinged with is annoying only because of the delay it causes. So far I am not had a large increase in delay. Compared to my ping times to a server in Chicago yesterday my ping times have gone up by only about 3-4ms. No big deal... |

If you're talking about me I'm not pushing data to the cloud. Titanfall uses Microsoft's Azure servers as dedicated servers. My ping to them used to be in the 30's (East US in Virginia and North Central US in Chicago) or 40's-50's (West US in Cali). Now I get 60's and 70's to East US or North Central US at best and 90's if not over 100 for West US. I used to be able to ping 90-100 to the North Europe (Dublin, Ireland) Azure servers. I've seen 80's on the East US/North Central US servers since I've been playing Titanfall. I'm usually 2 bars out of 5 for connection quality in game. So, yeah, you said you understand it for online gaming and there it is. Here are my current pings to Azure servers... East USA (Virginia) 71 ms North Central USA (Chicago, IL) 82 ms West USA (California) 121 ms North Europe (Dublin, Ireland) 144 ms From this site... » azureping.info/The very best I could get over several tests was 69ms to East US. I wish I had screenshots of my tests prior to this routing but unfortunately I don't since I didn't really have reason to fear some kind of random change that would double my latency. |
|
|
What does your trace look like boopin? I just did the azure ping and got 49ms to East USA, 47ms to North Central USA, 93ms to West USA and 145ms to North Europe. |

I play War Thunder online and I generally get anywhere from 30-50ms ping times on their East and West servers here in the US.
I got 75 East USA (Virginia), 88 North Central USA (Chicago, IL), 128 West USA (California), 149 North Europe (Dublin, Ireland) and 317 East Asia (Hong Kong, China), all while downloading LibreOffice at the same time. |

I play counter strike global offensive typically...pings have doubled for roughly a month now. probably switching isp's soon...growing tired of this. This is a hobby I actually make money to play and it sucks to be at a disadvantage...and sucks more I referred someone to WoW 2 months before this happened. |

said by boopin:In Pickerington with the same trashy routing. From another thread it seems this is the way WOW wants it to be because they moved their routing to Knology's newer equipment. But the result is bad. The switch has nearly doubled my ping to Microsoft's Azure servers. Used to be able to hit 2-3 US data centers at less than 50ms now I never have more than 2 at less than 100 and they're usually in the 70's. Couple that with the failure of my 2nd Ultra gateway in less than 3 months and I'm right on the edge of leaving WOW.
Here's the thread where it was first discussed... »new routing in Chicago Area.. I am also in Pickerington and have been running into the same issues. With Titanfall I am seeing 65ms at the lowest, and there are days when the lowest is above 80. A buddy of mine has TWC in Columbus and says he never sees above 40ms. Coupled with the WOW price jumps I am very close to switching to TWC, as much as that pains me. |

Yeah, there are 2 things that have me hesitant about switching to TWC here in Pickerington. I had Insight here before and it was awful and I know it's the same lines/equipment now just as TWC. And the whole Comcast thing. But I'm having more issues tonight with Titanfall (ie. over 1,700ms ping to East US server at one point) that have me pretty set on getting the switch set up this weekend. |

i was playing this morning, pings were 20-40ms (north midwest datacenter, from detroit area)
i don't know how accurate the azureping.info site is and the in-game latency seems to go up during busy times (but not network latency) |
