I dont know what all you have accumulated, but the infro from the previous traceroute/post and what I had done, it seems it is ATT, not charter, causing the problem. But you may have more info avalible to you.

If you are having trouble with the call center, you may need to escalate your case further up the chain until someone recognizes or states the problem they are having. Im sure you are not the only one.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8543131 Tue, 18 Nov 2003 23:27:30 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8543005 TWGandalf : Dumb Dumb me. I found it.

Yes, it is the Kingsport area that is in Charters domain. At hop 5 is where all my problems always begin. I have got lots of saved trace routes to show that saved. I have been keeping a Charter Log on Word for the past 2 months. Saving all the goodies because when I do get hold of tech support on the phone they deny it like anything or just say we are experiencing temporary difficulties. 2 months is way more than "temporary" difficulties.
I do not know how to do a signal strength test. Could you please explain to me how to do that.
I would love to be able to play MOHAA again on my server that I pay for.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542988 Tue, 18 Nov 2003 23:12:02 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542531 sparky9 : It's what you might call an overloaded network lol.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542531 Tue, 18 Nov 2003 22:24:35 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542500 volntn : WinMTR Statistics

A reverse trace from down the road in Cleveland ,Looks like it is a charter issue with the Kingsport router.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542500 Tue, 18 Nov 2003 22:21:52 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542348 bigbearr : K, unfortunatly I missread the post and thought that you were in my area, but I have done some investigating and cameron119 is correct, the issue is related to ATT service.

We can detect this by doing as Sparky had suggested and I can traceroute to the IP provided and notice that the ATT hop is the problem.

When TWGandalf posted his traceroute, it shows that its almost the same IP causing the issue. Its off by 1 number.

Could you post your modem's signal levels anyway? »192.168.100.1 If the signals are out of spec that can cause some issues. Granted, I highly doubt there is anything we can do since the issue is beyond Charter control on AT&T's backbone.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542199 Tue, 18 Nov 2003 21:55:04 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542117 bigbearr : Hey, your other thread got locked, so I needed to respond this way.
I have not noticed much of a latency issue in the area, but Ill check on a few things on my own using my own connection.

I just wanted to start another thread so you know someone is assisting you and you can post more info.

P.S. no one troll this thread too.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,8542117 Tue, 18 Nov 2003 21:48:26 EDT
