| Re: Lower your ping time!
Some of these customers who are switched to fast cell will be loosing sync completely, or more frequently or may have to leave with reduced throughput due to packet retransmissions. Interleaving makes the lines more robust by employing forward error correction (FEC) codes.
I bet, some will need to be switched back to interleaved setup again. I hope Covad is prepared to maintain fast/interleaved setup per customer or they are going to irate some customers and may lose some of them if they only support fastcell now.

| True, True on switching back. I was switched over to Fast Path with my provider (Sprint), and at first all was great. 78ms Dr. Ping time from 124, 16ms to first hop from 60. BUT, my throughput went from 434/107 to 429/35 on a 512/128 provisioned line.
Any advantage, during gaming, that I got from the switch I lost in throughput.
Toulnay, if you have any suggestions on how I could have the best of both worlds, or a good compromise, I would appreciate your comments. The three days I did get good pings & throughput I rocked.

I am with Speakeasy and was switched over. I have the 1500/384 RADSL.
I went from 150ms to 9ms to my DNS and I only dropped from
1307 down, which is the best I ever got, to average 1290 down, with
the up staying the same. I am 15th in the top 30 DoctorPing with a
38.5ms and that is with the 10 faster than me using cable or SDSL: http://www.dslreports.com/beta/doctorping. I have been on this for approx. a month now, zero downtime, and loveit! Screen shot of pings do DNS over a 12 hour period: http://www.speakeasy.org/~ronnieg/pp1.jpg
I am editing this 9/23 11:18am edt because I see that just after I posted the link above to the top/bottom 30 doctor ping results last night the page is gone. Now when you click that link you get sent to the main doctor ping page instead of the top 30 results page. Strange as soon as I linked to those results no more page. Maybe it is being worked on, maybe.

Well, I don't know what you guys are talking about. I got my 1500/384 ADSL switched to Fast Path and I've gotten a ping of 4, and all of my downloads are faster, I have much less packetloss, and my speed test results have all been increased from 1200/250 to 1350/380. So, I'm nothing but thrilled. This is a big step for Covad, one that people have been waiting for for a long time.  HOORAY!!
God Bless,

Concentric doesn't know what Interleaving is.....
I called them about it, they said that I am stuck (but he didn't know what the word meant) I am on the new RADSL bridge after moving across town and getting a new line. My old DSL line (with concentric) was faster. I have screen shots of 10ms hops across Concentrics network on the old line. Now with the RADSL I am getting 50-70ms hops. grrrr. |
