Hi Tek Bahadur Limbu >>Your 4 mbps connection link seems really really slow. Maybe as you say, >>your ISP could be creating this problem for you in the first place.
I know it must be funny but how do we find out that wether the link is actually giving us 4 Mbps? The traceroute for google.com shows the following: traceroute www.google.com traceroute: Warning: www.l.google.com has multiple addresses; using 72.14.235.147 traceroute to www.l.google.com (72.14.235.147), 64 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 dialup-pool-1.165.78.202.shyaminternet.co.in (202.78.165.1) 7.349 ms 7.225 ms 6.885 ms 2 core-link2bharti.hellorainbow.com (202.78.168.17) 8.332 ms 7.353 ms 7.385 ms 3 dsl-KK-static-105.165.145.59.airtelbroadband.in (59.145.165.105) 9.367 ms 9.543 ms 9.431 ms 4 59.145.7.121 (59.145.7.121) 23.800 ms 22.20 ms 21.803 ms 5 59.145.7.146 (59.145.7.146) 64.225 ms 64.960 ms 58.920 ms 6 202.56.223.17 (202.56.223.17) 59.864 ms 57.841 ms 57.373 ms 7 so-2-3-0-zcr1.lnt.cw.net (166.63.222.53) 305.812 ms 306.9 ms 296.886 ms 8 so-7-0-0-zcr2.lnt.cw.net (166.63.222.42) 303.226 ms 312.317 ms 311.51 ms 9 so-5-2-0-dcr2.tsd.cw.net (195.2.10.134) 297.58 ms 305.313 ms 296.886 ms 10 as0-dcr1.tsd.cw.net (195.2.10.165) 301.422 ms 301.717 ms 301.720 ms 11 72.14.198.41 (72.14.198.41) 287.853 ms 285.945 ms 285.841 ms 12 209.85.252.40 (209.85.252.40) 280.834 ms 279.237 ms 279.367 ms 13 72.14.236.216 (72.14.236.216) 312.806 ms 307.203 ms 305.375 ms 14 209.85.251.233 (209.85.251.233) 319.20 ms 319.561 ms 216.239.46.227 (216.239.46.227) 310.52 ms 15 72.14.233.116 (72.14.233.116) 370.312 ms 390.349 ms 388.933 ms 16 209.85.248.130 (209.85.248.130) 477.780 ms 467.457 ms 471.978 ms 17 209.85.250.90 (209.85.250.90) 481.873 ms 487.371 ms 481.930 ms 18 209.85.250.101 (209.85.250.101) 505.620 ms 209.85.250.103 (209.85.250.103) 483.603 ms 209.85.250.101 (209.85.250.101) 495.549 ms 19 72.14.232.221 (72.14.232.221) 501.715 ms 72.14.232.217 (72.14.232.217) 499.203 ms 72.14.232.221 (72.14.232.221) 502.309 ms 20 tw-in-f147.google.com (72.14.235.147) 512.656 ms 492.229 ms 490.800 ms >>Do you get it through a satellite link?
