Re: Feedback for VISP

I don't exclude completely what you said, but I doubt Joomla has anything to do with it. What seems more probable is that there's a problem with the connection between VISP and your web host.

I would compare some traceroutes from several ISPs to 1and1, maybe something would appear here. And not just your website. Try a few others you may know are hosted there as well. Although, ultimately I doubt there's much you can do on your side.

If you ever do decide to launch the investigation, please feel free to share results here.

Re: Feedback for VISP

Well after 2-3 days, i think VISP has the worst customer service ... Not to say inexistant customer service.

I emailed them the problem, i called and explained and nothing, no reaction, no phone call ... Nothing.

Finally i just switched to Spidernet and the service is just great and at least my pages are loading properly.

Just wanted to give you a heads up, dont lose your time and energy with VISP.

Re: Feedback for VISP

Still i am checking issue, bad side, i have to travel for 1 week. I have to replace proprietary garbage with my own software, it is not withstanding load. Worse if it is Ogero issues, it will be much harder to fix.
There is pending installation of new equipment also, but i dont know terms. It should help to make things more stable.

Re: Feedback for VISP

If it was something changed - it will be easy to fix. But bad thing - nothing was changed, except online firmware upgrades for 2 shitty devices (they are updated automatically by vendors).
I suspect just growing load or equipment malfunction. Two proprietary devices giving me bad times since 2 month, and they may be the reason.

Re: Feedback for VISP

apparently my connection will be discontinued for complaining about my 2000+ ms latency. this might be for the best. maybe it is an incentive to get a better connection elsewhere.

I would have gladly paid more for a better connection (even double). I went to VISP building 5 weeks ago and asked if I could pay for a better connection. they kept sending me between two people who kept saying ask the other guy.
You guys have a bad marketing problem.
if a customer goes to you and offers to pay double and some guy sitting on a desk says he doesn't know what account types there are, what are you leaving for people who have been loyal customers for over 4 years?
I was with a reseller. Samir or whatever his name was suggested I become a direct subscriber. so I left the reseller and become a direct subscriber. now things changed and direct subscriber is bad. Excuse my antics but don't you think someone who was a loyal customer for 4 years deserves an opportunity to upgrade his account type?
Patrick suggested DSL from VISP but if cable is this bad, DSL is going to be much worse.

Re: Feedback for VISP

hussam - maintaining wireless as we did before becoming very hard now, due legal pressure(it means more money spent for paperwork and etc, than real wireless improvement). When i come back (next week), if you want, i can try to search what is a problem. It might be local problem on your VISP link wireless.

Re: Feedback for VISP

if your link is via Wi-Fi then gaming will never work not because of VISP but because of the technology, Wi-Fi no matter how fast it is still is a half-duplex connection and because of the way transmission occurs even if you have a link of lets say 802.11n 150mbps if 4 persons are just using 1 mbps on the same link then the latency would increase significantly and you would never get a realtime connection.

Joomla is a terribly heavy platform - it's a fact. It's what would be called a bloat.
Since the PHP code is bloated - it would most probably also result in bloated HTML output with many, many includes.

Just saying.

Re: Feedback for VISP

DNA, my ping to visp  gateway stays under 10ms even when internet is down so this is not an issue with the wireless link.
what happens is when I use internet, my connection stops for 30 seconds. when I click 'submit' now, it's going to stop for 30 seconds.
Sometimes it gets to bad that the pppoe connection to VISP drops when I open a website.
This only happens between 9AM and 3AM. I have a perfect uninterrupted connection between 3AM and 9AM (non FUP/unlimited times).
I think my FUP is set at 62% so I shouldn't have FUPed.
This sounds like some mis-configuration on VISP's side where I am put on the FUPed class.

Edit: This means this has nothing to do with online gaming. I can't even download 1MB files because I don't have internet for more than a minute at a time.

Re: Feedback for VISP

Ping is unstable, and seems not much will change if there is no bandwidth upgrade from ogero. However i am moving things to new system and trying to fix this issue. At weekend i will replace proprietary balancer that was causing ping spikes and i have to ship server for my own shaping system, to replace another proprietary system.

Re: Feedback for VISP

Same here, Ping has been very good and stable in the last several months, but has degraded these last few weeks. I know it's not completely VISPs fault, but whatever you guys are doing to solve it, know that we are 100% grateful... Also, remember to keep pestering Ogero for more bandwidth. Ever seen how the woodpecker knocks on the trees? That's how we want VISP to pressure Abdel Menhem.
