PingPlot from Iraq.
« on: December 18, 2010, 06:52:56 AM »


This is what my internet looks like over here.  I have talked to the ISP until I am blue in the face but they do not listen.  It is very frustrating to be told it is routing issues in Iraq and Turkey when I show them the 1000 ms + pings to their gateway.  This is what my 88 Dollars a month is paying for.  This is why I have a hard time not warping or discoing.  This is why I am so mad at this ISP.  Not like I have a choice in the matter.  So this is the end of my whine.  

*Edit:  The graph at the bottom is over a 12 hour period.  Sometime around 0700 I lost connection completely long enough to reset my IP.

I would suspect that anything in or out of that area of the world would be under great scrutiny and observation by all types of entities.  Just sayin.

This is unconstrained internet.  The Government and / or military has nothing to do with this.  I understand your point but this is a private company providing internet.  It is a pain

The fact this thread exists drops my jaw. (For both reasons) :huh

Glad there isn't much else to worry about over there anymore. ;

And whoever is complaining about your connection can go....themselves.

I think some routing equipment may have their ping setting to ignore, thus giving you the 100% error loss readings.

I would use speedtest.net, select Dallas as the server and then hit Start test to see what your ping time is.  This website also tries to select the closest server to you and may provide a clue as to which country your internet packets are flowing into via satellite.  I don't think your packets are going through Turkey.

I wonder what the ping times are for European players.
