| Seeing major latency after mdtnwiallcr52-v28.network.tds
All of a sudden tonight I'm seeing some major latency between tds and equinix in Chicago.
3 40 ms 43 ms 33 ms mdtnwiallcr52-v28.network.tds.net [69.128.254.145]
4 358 ms 354 ms 357 ms xe-0.equinix.chcgil09.us.bb.gin.ntt.net [206.223.119.12]

| I seem to be seeing faster pings to my servers in dallas from Michigan now too which is nice. Previously was seeing 90 ms to dallas and now I'm seeing 75 ms average tonight - a nice improvement.

Glad to see your latency issue has resolved. I know there has been some major upgrades going on. |

Yea, we just had some bad timing in early June -- after two months of 100% perfect service since install, in a week we had a few glitches caused both work afar and by a local thunderstorm.
In this case, the maintenance or upgrade or fix was plenty fast, so I have no complaints. Service during the maintenance was still noticeably faster than my satellite which is still up and running side by side! But I sure was happy to have DSL come quickly back up to full speed / quickness again within the hour. I'm spoiled now!
The only thing that would be a slight improvement would be for TDS to post known issues or maintenance windows somewhere on the tds member site or email members or email members who subscribe to a notification list. It would be nice to know when customer-affecting work was planned (but in this case it was just a slowdown not an interruption, so not totally necessary either, just a courtesy.)

Jeff that is an idea I will pass on for you. Although sometimes it is hard to monitor the unscheduled work and outages. Ti's the season though for problems, you have to love construction time. |
