Howdy folks! Hey, I'm trying to upgrade a syste across the internet and am having one heck of a time with packet loss and stalled transfers and time-outs. really an issue.
Is anyone else seeing this? Ping is reporting anywhere from 13% to 55% packet loss between me and my clients system in Myrtle beach, SC, USA. Tracroute is also showing lots of hops with times in the 2000-5000ms range. This isn't normal. Is it? I donn't think it's any my systems here, as they seem to have no problems. It's possible that it's a configuration issue on the client's system that's causing the file transfer issues. But the ping/traceroute results are independant of that system. The problems seems to mostly be with sprintlink in Chicago or InfoAve (whereever they are...Southern US...?) Here's a sample from traceroute: $ traceroute 204.116.58.133 traceroute to 204.116.58.133 (204.116.58.133), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 richnet-g.richnet.net (205.242.11.7) 147.434 ms 142.25 ms 134.988 ms 2 richnetmain.richnet.net (205.242.11.254) 133.833 ms 140.761 ms 125.072 ms 3 sl-gw15-chi-1-0-0-TS1-T1.sprintlink.net (144.228.155.17) 147.252 ms 140.5s 4 144.228.50.23 (144.228.50.23) 2524.43 ms 521.094 ms 739.338 ms 5 sl-bb11-chi-0-2.sprintlink.net (144.232.0.173) 1122.92 ms 2621.78 ms 341s 6 sl-bb1-roa-1-0-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.8.186) 1926.68 ms 3931.64 ms 49s 7 sl-bb2-roa-0-0-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.2.198) 618.993 ms 1533.42 ms * 8 sl-bb7-dc-5-0-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.8.46) 700.093 ms 943.512 ms 2878s 9 * * * 10 sl-gw11-dc-8-0-0.sprintlink.net (144.232.7.198) 2359.8 ms 1043.52 ms 197s 11 sl-infonet-2-0-0-T3.sprintlink.net (144.228.220.6) 2768.66 ms 593.805 ms s 12 h2-0-t3.r01.ia-clma.infoave.net (165.166.125.206) 519.248 ms 903.037 ms s 13 * * * 14 * * * 15 * * * 16 dial-25.r04.scmbch.InfoAve.Net (204.116.58.133) 610.009 ms 1063.51 ms 33s Just wondering what others were seeing, and if ther's any hope in it being something *I* can fix. (At this point, I'd *love* for it to be something I screwed-up...at least then I'd know it could be fixed...soon...) Thanks!
