jpinx Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 It's probably showing switzerland as an attempt to bypass 'slow' connectivity across the Pacific right now. Your ISP may be routing out of vietnam instead of singapore, hard to be certain but yeah. Now you can see that it's not your 'speed' that's a problem, it's your routing. So a speedtest won't accurately show you your issues but here in the tracert (short for trace route) you're seeing where the connectivity problem is. There's probably not much your ISP can do at this moment short of rebuilding their routing tables and... good effin' luck getting them to do that =D. Not quite sure about that -- given that my traceroute to 8.8.8.8 ended up in California without issues - just a bit slow. You can do a geoIP search on any of the IP's listed in the traceroute results to see exactly where it's going. As I said before, it may not be the same every time.

JeffreyO Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Google routes to California but the tracert is not accurate. There is no connection that takes 50ms to cross the ocean. Bottom line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffreyO Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Sorry, I was looking at another. That's about expected speed to north america. And yes, a route can use many different lines, time of day, network usage, bottlenecks, etc. They all play a role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shariq607 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 This looks like normal ping to 8.8.8.8 (google open DNS). You can attempt to a more to a more localized server. Try... in-n-out.com tracert in-n-out.com You should see significantly higher latency as you leave the local ocean. Ping times of 32ms mean you didn't leave the region. This is what im getting.

If you do a ping in-n-out.com -t the ping will happen continuously. You can let it run for a few hours and then CTRL-C, check if you had 'windows' of packet loss. A connection might be good for 5 minutes, bad for 5, off and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
