Yes, definitely something not normal with that.

Now, at 6:00, everything seems to be fine...

Seems, that Nperf is extremely "Provider-friendly", probably sponsored or prioritized?

My up and download rates are almost twice as high as the others.

Even the ping is 90ms below other measures

Completely useless.

I take all of these results from all "speedtest" sites with a pinch of salt anyway

3BB 30/10 VDSL appears slow and jerky early in the test then accelerates towards the end. So I did a Manual Download test with 100mb random data and it increased to 21mb with testmynet to UK. 

 

Edit: 3BB 30/10 VDSL significantly outperforms the AIS 50/10 Fiber (GGN/NAT Private ipv4, ipv6) internationally which I had for 2 months and complained so much that they let me out of the contract penalty free!

Its all here in this easy to follow diagram of the Thai internet, lol.

Although its a complex map, you can see that different ISPs have different isp, backbone and international capacities, dependant on type of traffic, destination etc.

 

You can see that true has a 100 Gb link to CAT backbone/gateway, and CAT has a 30 Gb link to Facebook in Singapore. There is lots of capacity to Singapore etc but not much direct capacity to the UK.

You can Google all the ASxxxx gateway numbers on the map and it give you more info on the gateway capacity to other gateways.

But, hat's just all gray theory, if you live in a crowded and/or heavily overbooked area, or your ISP hits the throttle button at 6:00pm.

Or whatever other ridiculously problems your honest ISP may have.

Sucks.

My biggest problem is that since last weekend my speed to UK with Singapore VPN has dropped immensely, from 19 Mb to ~5 Mb, and the 3BB specialist technicians are "unable" to find where the problem lays.

 

I also notice that if I use TCP with the VPN, my speed doubles from what I get using Openvpn UDP, while it actually should be the opposite.

 

They have changed the router 4 times already, so that is also not the cause.

 

enabling ADSL on my line again, also doesn't solve the problem, however my speed was fine on ADSL before they switched me to VDSL early this month.

 

My friend who live about 5 km away and has still ADSL 18/1.8, with a significant lower speed to Singapore, doesn't have the issue with the very same VPN.

 

I even took my device to his house and got more than double the speed, to UK with VPN, from what I got at my home 30 minutes prior and 30 minutes later.

An interesting exercise, find your ISP on this list and note the AS number

 

http://internet.nectec.or.th/webstats/show_page.php?py0HA8wH8+a7AIaRsDo/prnHnBJzfoE5torm+SGClYhbXXQV3+jglX8fLA/33Q6lNqG4t6oo5qdGUYFPbbfBnQ==

 

then enter your ISP AS number into this site (the site can also recognize your ISP)

 

https://bgp.he.net/

 

Lots of info about your ISP and capacity to other gateways/countries

 

https://bgp.he.net/AS45758#_graph4

 

3BB has little direct capacity to singapore and no direct capacity to UK.

 

 

 

Tot on the other hand has direct capacity to Singapore and UK

From your screen shots it seems to be the opposite, but little I know how to read them, only that I notice that 3BB has a direct connection to somewhere much further away.

I may have put the pics wrong way around, but if you play around with the bgp.he .net site you can start to see why an ISP may be slow to the UK but fast to korea etc.

The pics are right, AS45758 is Triple T

3BB 50/20 VDSL with inter package now not available to new customers but for reference;

Testmynet to UK 40.6 / 2.1 and tested 1 minute later 30.1 / 2.5 village location 17:00

 

Ookla to Bangkok 77 / 23

IMHO and thats all it is, I'm not impressed by results from these "speedtest servers". My interpretation of a fast internet connection is when I can stream video from the WWW without buffering at the same time that Mrs Mutt Daeng and the kids can do the same from their phones / laptops / tablets. So far so good.

Since they are most likely using Youtube, like my wife, this shouldn't matter, since Youtube's CDN uses local servers.

Yesterday, my line to EU was so crappy, that even a 600Kbit/s stream was unwatchable, but on YT we could watch three (or more) Full-HD streams at the same time.

Youtube showed a connection-speed of 50 Mbit/s!!

Ten hours ago you had 30/10 VDSL with much lower speeds.

 

How did you upgrade to 50/20, which is not available anymore, in those 10 hours?
