Re: [DSL] Upgraded to 25/7, experiencing congestion Are we sure its congestion then? In London when some DSL areas had congestion it affected both Bell and TSi customers equally. |

kudos:3 | You might have line issues or you're to far from the SLAM to get the full speed. If you have Bell service I would suggest giving them a call and get a tech out to your place. |

I'm not too far from the Dslam.
It's back to normal now.
I was thinking they were maybe upgrading me to 25/10 from 25/7 but no such luck. |

| I never experienced congestion problems before tonight and I'm on 16/1 in downtown Toronto. Ping times have tripled and download speed is 2/3 of my normal 16.5Mb/s. I double checked my line stats just to make sure nothing had changed there and they're fine. |

Pennywally, your pings are way too high. I have low ping with low D/N speeds during peak times. I don't think we have the same problem. Although, you and I share the same low U/L.
My pings are usually around 6-7ms with both Bell and TSI logins. |

Like I mentioned to Peenywally, I don't have issues with ping just speed. |

If they did upgrade you, congrats HiVolt. |

My download speed is still only 2/3's of my normal 16.5Mb/s speed and I have the 19Mb downstream profile.

Now Speeds are Slower | |

Something very peculiar is going on and I am note sure if it is with the remote (about 100 metres away from me) or with Bell or TekSavvy.
Speeds do improve after 1am but still not as good as when it was first installed at the end of March.
There seems to be a bottleneck somewhere and I don't think it is local to my residence or the hardware I am using.

| I think the bottleneck is with Teksavvy. I posted some test data here: »[DSL] Peak-time congestion |
|
| So is Teksavvy doing anything about this? |

They have been aware of this for over a month, with no action plan, no updates. They just thank you for your patience. This is turning out to be a flip-flop. Cable was at a stop sell for many months. Now, it is available again. Now DSL is congested.
The thing with the new Bell FTTH that is intriguing is that under the new speeds, they guarantee you will get that speed. (50mbps and above). I can't see many ISPs that can say that. Even Rogers.
I can barely get 16/5 on a 25/7 plan during peak times. |
