Slow broadband and high ping, is there issue in my area ?

[SethEvans]

Hi, since yesterday me and many of my friends who own Virgin near me, have slow transfers and high pings (40-60ms), is there any issues ?

here is my BQM and it look the same for my friends

Looks like over utilization to me, overselling in an area, not much you can do, until they sort it

Something went wrong thats for sure, same on wired connection

Definalty looks like congestion/oversubscribed area

I will ask VM to come here and take a look

Sorry, but that's not overutilization

The minimum ping on the bqm shown goes up with at the bad times, this is something I have never seen with overutilization.

Typical overutilization raises the maximum latency and drags up the average as a result.

This more looks like area problem of some sort affecting not just you.

Just saying you can have overutilization with low ping by QoS but this type of hump in BQM can be a DDoS maxing out the link or CPU can't handle the incoming buffer ingress on VM edge network.

If you ping the WAN gateway you likely see the 1st hop by Docsis is fine.
