Is this normal? Because from 1pm -> 10pm this is what happens.

It means I cannot visit most websites because just loading an image takes over a minute, and if its any sort of video streaming website then the video will not even start to load.

Tracing route to google.com [72.14.207.99]

What the hell is going on? It has been like this for the last week, has anyone else noticed this?

Have you contacted the help desk, probably should be your first option.

I would advise calling us on 0800 14 9638 for some investigation.

Most likely issue is exchange congestion, we'll need to log a fault with Telecom and escalate the issue to management. It looks like your throughput is extremely low given the ping response times & delay loading pages. Usually in these scenarios Telecom Wholesale Management will discuss the issue at their congestion meetings. If the above is happening from 1pm to 10pm it's likely they'll take action to resolve it.

A few other possibilites are a virus killing your upload or heavy peer 2 peer usage - killing both your upload & router. These will usually occur 24/7 though - although you might want to check out all the machines on your network (if you have more than one).

One other possibility is you've hit your data cap, you can check this via the "Your Account" section on the Xnet website.

Thanks

I have contacted the Xnet helpdesk, and they said it was definately a congession issue with the exchange that I'm on, but they say its been like this for 2-3 months with no response from Telecom updating the status of the fault or if it has been resolved.

Really annoying, I can't make any phone calls because there is so much latency that when I start speaking the end user is already half way into their next sentence.
