1 edit | reply to H-Town dude Um, ever had 22-minute pings on RoadRunner? That's what I got. You're probably better off with a direct-connection (DSL or so). Got a time? Because: Cable gets truly congested at certain peak times.
EDIT: If you are wondering why I'm commenting about RoadRunner, I'm a past-customer.

Eeee.. very bad Ping Times. If you are Recving heavy amounts of Packets Loss(no matter what you ping), or notice that at times you have a slow internet connection(accessing urls) then you should call your office and possibly have a ping Test Scheduled by L3.
Note:My local office has the capability to do 24-48HR ping test but yours may not. You may need to speak directly to L3 to get a definitive answer..

said by Karl Bode : ...inform ATDN that they've got a hosed router, which they're already probably aware of....
That's one thing you can be sure of, they knew about the problem long before any users noticed it. They surely have monitoring in place with much different thresholds that we're used to dealing with. I mean, we could see a 10ms increase and not get worried, but they might see a 1ms increase and know something's going wrong. -- I lost my .sig... Where did it go ?? |

Thanks, James.
All good for now. However, I know every few months there will be a ATDN fubared router somewhere on the network that will affect myself, and I'm sure, a host of other users. Such is technology I guess.
Thanks for the tips.

But then I'm on SBC DSL, too. There's more to this stuff than speed alone... that's why I left TWC. They couldn't get it fixed while I was a customer... hope it works out for you guys.

I live in Pearland sliver lake area and my speed is down a little just under 3000 but still running great no big deal here.

| reply to papillon Yep, Copperfield area of Houston here. Games UNPLAYABLE due to high ping but mainly packet loss! I'm at the end of my rope with this.
SBC is sounding pretty nice right about now. I'd be better off with a 56K than this current RR connection anyway. I'm even experiencing this with a game server located in Dallas. |

| I am having the same problem here in Missouri City (near Sugar Land). I play Diablo II on battlenet. Earlier in November, my connection was consistently excellent. Sometime around Thanksgiving, I started having lost packets and very poor response times. It causes me to lag badly in games, even when I am playing alone.
Road Runner of course says that it is my setup, when in fact nothing has changed on my end.
I cannot get DSL in my area, so it looks like I am stuck with this problem. |

That ping used to be under 20ms. Im play games online. Once you get on the servers and play pings jump to like 160 ingame. From what used to be 60-110 at most. I was informed by them that that tracert looks good and is ok. There is nothing they can do. With that kind of performance im moven to the cheaper dsl. I can get just as good or better with dsl for a cheaper price. RR Houston is unwilling to adress the issue with atdn aol. |
