Ever since the upgrade yesterday morning I am getting phenomenal response times accessing my server. Am I the only one? Check out this traceroute:

Please, oh please stay like this forever with no downtime :D I can dream can't I :(

speeds are excellent...

yes the response times are alot better no packet losses :)

but being in Australia has it's flaws

and the greatest thing of the new speeds: no more clients complaining!

And just think, speed will probably get better after their other upgrades...

not bad, getting 1.2 MB/s from my other box 13 hops away spanning 3 tier1's.

We are Completed with step 1 , and it did improve throughput about 1000%.

The Router upgrade will be next Thursday is the expected date.

then the additional 155MBPS ...


Then we will be 1000% solid again, and then your business will grow big time cause you can say "your network kicks the other Networks A$$. :)

hmmm....

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm thats my trademark :)

Hmmmm

time for sleep, really really really need some.

My server at interserver was able to burst to 16 Mbps before the upgrade, and still at 16 Mbps after... On the other hand, total number of hops seems to get reduced by at least 1 or 2 (from my computer at home or from visualroute.datametrics.com).

also, if you notice high ping times, try to trace from traceroute.org.

WE have been getting a bit of users using bbplanet "genuity" with horrible ping times.

We are still not sure why it`s doing that.

We got a couple more hops going through alternet, but the new switch has really pulled in the speed back to the servers...

Hmmmm... Rather ugly indeed. :(

Still, I noticed the speed improvements at Uni today (about 8 hours ago and it was very good. Quite noticeable.
