1st off - horrible latency fluctuations at random times during the day, slow speeds, sites not opening, torrent speeds awful, download/upload clogging/choking connection at these times, peak hour internet unusable, 2-8am period mostly unusable, 7am-8am 300-400ms above normal, packet loss, outages.

what's going on ?

underwater cable break ?
bsnl server monkey died inside a router ?

Why does disconnecting and reconnecting the BSNL BB connection affect latency so much ?

Same dns server, no other change, but latencies change every time i reconnect.

Does reconnecting choose a different routing path ?

Also; is anyone else finding random congestion/high latency/pings/packet loss at random times during the day ?

I'm getting 500ms right now and it's 5pm - hardly peak time anywhere.
What's going on ?

I called BSNL BB and the call center people are clueless about this issue.

Here's a screenshot showing how reconnecting affects latencies - the window on the left is to a US server and the window on the right is to an Australian server.

Next up : huge amount of connection choking at the slightest connection bandwidth usage - i just tried to upload the images above and my connection gets horribly choked - latencies shoot up to 500-600ms above normal (when this continues you see packet losses)

before anyone asks :
1) splitter is fine, same issue if i connect directly
2) line is fine, had lineman check and replace wires last month
3) changes dns servers is useless (+/- 10ms difference when i do)
4) no virus/trojan etc
5) modem is brand new (getting same problem with old bsnl modem)
6) problem happens at different times during the day.

PLEASE ADVISE
I AM FED UP WITH BSNL
IS THERE ANY WAY TO FIX THIS BULLSHIT

anyone good with networking that can help me/explain this pls 😀

[p.s. sorry for making this same post on 2 forums]
 
airtel broadband is doing the same at my end right now.
 
o wow 🙁my hopes of getting this fixed by switching ISPs just vanished :/i booked a reliance 749 combo plan (no fup, seemed pretty good)i wonder if they are having issues too.anyway thanks for your response.

I thought Airtel is a very good ISP. Unfortunately they do not have service in my area. 🙁
 
well airtel is no longer a preferred internet service provider. their new packages are shitty in nature for folks like us.
