Latency problems in WC1

Evening,

Our service has been very patchy over the last few days. See 

https://www.thinkbroadband.com/broadband/monitoring/quality/share/e92ab4da89c2db4ae63df9b18c6f431f64f53e19-18-10-2021

Any thoughts on what might be causing this.

Thanks,

Tom

Hi tom1888

 

Thanks for posting. My apologies for the broadband issues. It does indeed need a tech for the power level issue.

 

Will send you a PM now. 

 

Best,

When you say patchy .... what does that mean exactly - and is it just on wifi connections or do you see them at the same times on devices connected on ethernet cables? If you don't know, can you check to help diagnose whether it is just a wifi issue or it could be network connection related?

Thanks John. We mainly use wifi but I have two networks (one from the Hub 4 and one using BT discs) and they have both been affected. Drop outs etc. Also I understood that the thinkbroadband analysis I posted measures the signal coming into the house. Far more yellow than usual which coincides with the drop outs. So I think it is an external issue.

Is there a Virgin engineer who can look at this and provide some help please?

Thanks

No VM engineeers on this forum.

A VM staff person will respond and take a look at your connection in a day or two.

The BQM asbove, is a "historic one" can you post the link to the "Share Live Graph". It actually doesnt look too bad - much the same as mine - albeit there was a drop out at ~ 2.30 am.

You could post up the Hub stats from the Downstream/Upstream/Network logs pages in the Hub settings and people can look for any obvious issues.

Thanks for coming back to us @tom1888.

 

Please would you be able to provide a link to your most recent BQM as @jbrennand asked for as this can help us diagnose the issues that you're having as I cannot see any issue on your account at the moment.

Service has been very poor today and reflected in thinkbroadband output. Is anyone able to help please?

The service for quite a few people has been poor recently, myself included.

See that lingering small amount of pack loss at the top? I that exact same at the moment.

I thing there is a bigger problem going around at the moment.

That said if you login to your router then copy and paste all the 'network status' stats here, we can have a look.
