Pretty much anything to Australia is bad again. New Zealand servers and websites seem to be okay. What's the issue?
Running Belkin ADSL with D Link Router. This has happened in the past.
I haven't tried restarting yet.

I wonder if last night's international outage, lasting 30 minutes or so, was some "planned work" changing their routing - I've heard that there was some work done on this last month.

I still see problems accessing some international sites today.

I was having an issue accessing international sites the last day or so. I notice at the moment that my connection is running at 119Mbs/10Mbs 25ping - usually I am lucky if I get anywhere near 30Mbs down.

Would depend on how you are testing and where you are testing to

I barely just caught the ping spike but not enough time to trace rt.

It seems it is stable again. Might be a five minute glitch or a quick tweak.

Either way I'll leave this here. I noticed some serious jitter. Possible still spiking?

From what i understand there have been upgrades on the "Vodafone" ADSL customer side that have taken place. I have been having huge packet loss and ping spikes. (Apparently a "Faulty" port, Not to mention it was checked 5 days ago by chorus.) If i run a basic trace route to trademe. It takes about 2 minutes to complete and pings very inconsistent. I try to play Dota 2 and get a constant ping of 300ms-400ms and packet loss of 30%-80%. The issue isnt constant but very frequent at peak times. I will see how it pans out and hope for VDSL at some time in the future and that the routing is resolved. I will usually see the issue between the router and the BRAS (Most likely hinting a congestion hand over point or port issue) or between us a Vocus for international traffic.

What kind of upgrades are we looking forward to? Stability upgrades or better routing or just overall performance. Because if it's just that then I can understand why it's been happening.

Something i wouldnt be able to answer even if i knew.
I hope its upgrading the hand overs and BRAS's, (Not to mention the upstream)

Normally I use both the telstraclear/Vodafone speedtest to check my on-net speed (which always gives me a large number) and then I use an off-net speedtest to give me a 'real-word' value. I was aiming for a 'real-world' value when I last checked, but I have my suspicions that the server I selected might have been on-net. Will try again later to see if that was the case.
