RR burps....

[Khandurian]

Well since I am not going to create another account on another site, I have enough sites as it is... If any of those so called computer pro's took half a second to read those traceroutes, they would see the problem is NOT road runner.

In the first traceroute, it goes from 13ms to a whopping 65ms. Oh look! its from Level3.net! DOH! Not Road Runner!

In the second traceroute, it goes from 13ms to again, 65ms. Oh look! its coming from Level3.net! Once again! NOT ROAD RUNNER!!!

So they can sit over there and complain all they want. It's exactly as it was told. Once you leave the RR network, speeds are not guaranteed.

So back over there and tell them the Road Runner is running fine. 13ms! Once they leave the network and start getting to xbox live, its Level3 and msn causing the problems. However, with a whopping 115ms ping time, they need to find who owns level3 and complain to them.

It's 5:44pm now, I am able to get to those sites. I wasn't on that early. Was still putting together all the kid's toys!!!

I always recommend to people to use OpenDNS addresses for DNS. Google OpenDNS for more info.

Level 3 is "Level 3 Communications" They are one of the Premier backbone providers in nation I use them for most of my transit. Kinda odd to see them have problems..

Steve - I was thinking the same thing when I saw that 115ms ping time. However, lets also not forget the time of year that were in. Those cold snaps and blizzards wreck havoc on those lines!!

Has anyone been having problems with streaming video? Perhaps from like youtube.com or break.com ?

Haven't really tried today. Been to busy doing damage control.
