Internet Bottlenecks

OK IT guys... what's up with this?

 

I'm doing some work with a company based in St. Louis, MO.

 

We're transferring files via FTP and getting poo speeds.

 

I have 10Mbps fiber up and down.

 

They have 20Mbps fiber up and down.

 

We're getting like 0.6 Mbps on transfers.

 

 

If I do speed tests on sites east of the Mississippi River, I'm getting ~8Mbps down and 4-6 Mbps up.

 

If I do speed tests on sites west of the Mississippi River, I'm getting ~1Mbps down and ~3 Mbps up.

 

 

What gives?

What does this tell you?  I'm assuming the time out can't be good?

 

poo, sorry... it was in table format when I posted it...

 

[removed] is showing it's on a dial up connection.  TheRed actually answered correctly lol.  Please note I'm not a network admin and don't really know what I'm talking about...but that's what it says.

What.

 

 

The.

 

 

fug?

 

 

 

Dial up?  How is it routing traffic on the net?

 

It depends.  It could be part of that company's legacy system.  You'd be surprised at how many systems are still using dial up(if a credit card takes more than a few seconds to clear it's probably dialing in with a modem, for example).  It's not necessarily a machine that's routing internet traffic, just a machine your packets are going through.  

 

Thinking about it actually, you should probably delete that trace you posted. Possible security concern (even if negligible).

Yeah, I did, thanks... I had X'd out the relevant IP addressses...

 

 

I'm going to do more research on this... it's very interesting.

I'm not sure if this is exactly your issue but internet throttling is a huge issue lately. Especially if you play League of Legends.. This thread kind of explains some of it..

tl;dr there's diff types of ISPs and there's a disagreement between them and they're being shitheads and giving bad service until someone gives in and pays extra money. It's not necessarily just Comcast either.

 

I'm one of the many people who have this problem with really good internet but I can't play a game I like without huge ass lag spikes (500ms up to 16000ms lag spikes). Packet shaping ftl.

 

I've been using http://www.internethealthreport.com/ to check and see when a good time to play would be.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      They said there wasn't clear evidence to warrant the overturn.  How would it have made a difference at that point in the game?   https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-privately-admitted-to-erroneous-reversal-of-catch-by-panthers

      WWE pay per view and programming thread

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
