Here we go again-ATT Routers causing HIGH MI Pings

Any Charter admin - Can you look into this...

Same as my post awhile back..

»ATT Routers slow and SW Michigan - What can we do ??

Pings are 10ms and then it hits 4 - ATT routers on route to Chicago CS server from Kalamazoo - 100-115 ping on all ATT routers. It will cool down around 10pm I'm sure. Please look into it...

I'll keep monitoring it, no decent Counter Strike tonight

Hey Kev. Just letting you know I see your post and will check into it. Feel free to throw a few trace routes up. Thanks

Could this be AT&T's response to "Net-Neutrality"???

I'll check again tonight and will if it continues.

It may a "blip" because since my post last August, I've had this happen at least 3 times were it acts this way for 3-4 days then goes away.

Thanks Ckev

What Zappa posted is pretty much what I am seeing through Charter.

I am in the low 30ms running through all ATT hops.

Gee -- going to DSL wouldn't happen to benefit AT&T now would it? -- I mean they don't have an interest in screwing up Charter's pings now do they? That whole net-neutrality thing never amounted to anything right?

It's actually not just ATT, it is 8pm and look at this trace route to a NuclearFallout.net Chicago Server (they use level3.net). Here you can see a large ping increase before even leaving charters network.

Can a charter tech please help . It has been like this for 2 weeks now and it has been bad before but not like this. Kind of hard to play CAL-Invite CoD2 when you have 200 ms ping during match time, zzzzz.

you are wrong. Getting tired of this anon posting stuff too.

There is a bunch of competition at that level, compared to locally. For example, Charter in St Louis uses 2 companies, possibly a third. (Thought we went to only 2 recently though)

You obviously do not understand what net neutrality is about. It is about ATT charging google/yahoo/amazon/whoever more money, not Charter and ATT load balancing and BGP issues.

Please stop dropping into every thread with the same uninformed drivel about NN. I assume you are posting anon bc you would get banned otherwise.

Happi you maybe right?

Fine-in-Mich - I don't normally "whine" but as you know it does make a difference. I'll admit in August and Ocotber it was spiking around 100ms-130ms, so it was worse then.

I will tell you this when I had problems 2 years ago, I worked with net admins for 5 weeks(when they were located in Michigan) and my CS problems pinned a problem that was affecting the whole city for a month. However, us CS players noticed it. So fraggers aren't all bad - ROFL

We'll see what happens..Lower right now..

About 15 minutes ago, it was 8 ms for first hops and then jumped to 60ms at ATT routers.

Been better now, thanks anon charter admin stud dude or dudette

Hey anon - Can you tell us what the problem is ? In some detail and why does it happen at all ?? Does charter owe ATT money for using their routers ? Just guessing ..LOL

Yeah me and stoked both have the same isp and live generally in the same area, same problem every night at about 7:45 my ping jumps from 30m/s to 150m/s

Just needed to balance some traffic. Charter and ATT are getting along just fine. We don't owe ATT any more cash than we already pay them. Glad you are back to smooth sailing.

So better ping times are now a marketable item? re: »Will You Pay $15 More A Month For A Lower Ping?

Doesn't this mean that routing rules are already in place to "prioritize" certain IP's/MACs? Doesn't that mean the rest of us will, by definition, effectively get "less" priority?

I'm all for the Free Market but this sounds like a new twist on the Net Neutrality thing. It's not AT&T milking Google. It's any provider milking anyone on the network for preferential treatment.

So, how can we know if our bad ping incidents are just congestion or deliberate policy? Is there a "ping-time-ceiling" policy anywhere that can be used in a router rule? (i.e. no customer should suffer more than 60ms ping time) Is good network latency becoming a Moneyed-Class issue? Maybe it should be -- but eventually we'll all need to know what's happening. A maximum latency guarantee will be required -- since "best-effort" is apparently now a commodity.

EDIT: Slippery-Slope? not just an "express lane" but a "break-in-line" lane? What about Charter's VoIP getting more priority than Vonage? Charter's [future] ipVoD over Youtube? Does "anti-trust/anti-competitive" have any meaning here?.

Re: Here we go again-ATT Routers causing HIGH MI Pings

Interesting video, interesting post about NN. Completely offbase, like most of the NN concerned posts in here.

A company providing a service to lower pings. Consider how they would do that for 1 second. How exactly can you lower your latency from point A to point B? Nothing to do with NN, at all. If it was, your latency would be ~1000ms, not going from 80 to 60ms.

The anon MI_user has it correct, lack of understanding of NN has all these asisine theories popping up. If you understood what it was, you might be able to make an intelligent post regarding it.

Do you think that your gaming anywhere near a big enough percentage of the traffic for anyone to consider it in the grand scheme of things? Obviously you do, a perfect example of the pro-NN media and the stupidity of the people they are trying to trick in thinking it concerns them.

Here is the site with all the FUD:
»www.savetheinternet.com/=threat

Here are the 4 documented abuses. 2 are in Canada, 1 you never heard of the ISP, and the other is AOL, which, if you are using AOL then you deserve it(its not even related NN, they have to include it so they can have another example). Until there is something substantial here in America, any NN post is equivalent to an idiotic rant and/or flamebait. In fact, I wish they wouldnt let NN crap in here, since Charter is in no way affiliated with a NN case.

* In 2004, North Carolina ISP Madison River blocked their DSL customers from using any rival Web-based phone service.

* In 2005, Canada's telephone giant Telus blocked customers from visiting a Web site sympathetic to the Telecommunications Workers Union during a contentious labor dispute.

* Shaw, a major Canadian cable, internet, and telephone service company, intentionally downgrades the "quality and reliability" of competing Internet-phone services that their customers might choose -- driving customers to their own phone services not through better services, but by rigging the marketplace.

* In April, Time Warner's AOL blocked all emails that mentioned www.dearaol.com -- an advocacy campaign opposing the company's pay-to-send e-mail scheme.

Fascinating response ('looks I did touch a nerve).

1. How do you explain how one entity can get higher priority -- without necessarily reducing priority for others?

2. How can that not be a slippery-slope?

3. Why am I not allowed to ask the question?

4. Is this getting complicated?

(BTW -- I'm a very contented 10mbs VoIP subscriber -- I just want to keep it that way)
