Tonight:

 

 

File Speedtest, download the Linode Speedtest Fremont file - IPv4 (via BigPipe): 497KiB/s (average)
IPv6 (via SIXXS Tunnel, Wellington): 9.4MiB/s (average)
Baseline (via a server hosted in the US): 82MiB/s (speedtest host has more than enough bandwidth to conduct test).
Via a WXC ADSL2+ connection: 1.8MiB/s (average)

 

Pretty lame when an ADSL2+ connection beats my 200/200Mbit UFB connection.

Yea my speeds are down again tonight too

 

 

Though for some reason I'm being routed through Australia. No clue as to why?

I've just started a couple of automated Traceroutes - they can be viewed on https://murfy.nz/bigpipe-performance/ - traceroutes are updated every 30mins and the below image (along with the other Smokeping images) are generated every 5mins. This is to a known trouble endpoint speedtest.fremont.linode.com so hopefully will help with investigation.

 

 

Click this image to view an up-to-date traceroute.

 

Edit: I've added a speedtest to the above traceroute as well as a timestamped log from some speedtests done on the 45th minute of every hour: https://smokeping.murfy.nz/speedtest.txt

This is *awesome* stuff. I'm troubleshooting my line with the awesome Bigpipe support team as I've been having some pretty strange experiences. This will come in handy! Thanks as always.

I've also forwarded these to @BigPipeNZ via their support email. My mate on Spark is currently owning my international speeds and he is on VDSL in Hokitika :(

Yea the only issue I have had with Bigpipe over the last year of being on Fibre with them is the international speeds. Would be interesting if anything comes of this

I can't complain too much. I essentially get free internet due to people signing up with my referral code so out of spite they're likely throttling me for teh lulz.

 

Edit: @rudster are you on a CGNAT connection? Might explain it...

@michaelmurfy I wouldn't know actually.

 

I know this connection is the only connection using fibre directly to the local exchange. There are currently 3 other fibre installs being processed but the day fibre went life, We were the only ones who jumped on it for a year. Static IP, The full works

Really weird. Something else I noticed is with Google. It has periods where it goes via NZ and other times where it goes via Australia. Nothing on the Smokeping server has changed + all DNS is done via BigPipes DNS servers.

 

Smokeping graphs to Google (updates every 5 minutes):

My Republic 200/200 at 11.30pm this evening. (Actually their speed used to be rubbish, but reasonable at the moment)
