Fully restored my ARSE!!!
Im still connecting like crap! TMNet really crappy!

60.53.* = fine. 400-500 ms. no lag spikes
60.52.* = extremely bad. 1000-2000 ms with bad lag spikes.
124.82.* = so so. 800-1000 ms. bad lag spikes.
124.83.* = so so. 800-1000 ms. bad lag spikes.

connecting from Kuching, Sarawak.

ya rite...fix my @$$!!
i am getting 300~500 from 60.53.x.x (yellow all the time!! and some red )

before that
i was getting 200~400 from 60.53.x.x (sometimes green sometimes yellow)

Yeah my connection has been worse. Nowdays no matter what IP I connect it's always 450-600ms. Then late at night it'll randomly go up to 800-900ms for no reason ... annoying as hell.

ummm 450-600 i think normal.. lowest i get so far is 300

1k ms now. Restore what?

250-400 for me... 60.51.XXXX

11k ping, my highest...
beat that ...

2.8k ping --> 4k ping at 5a.m.

I dunno what TMnut broke so bad this time the connection is bad in the middle of the night.

1 sec makes so much difference meh?

btw guys, am on 60.52.* as of 7:15 am. looks to be back to normal but will try instancing later tonite.

219.94 --> smooth as silk. 300-450ms all day long, anytime of the day.

well actually it does, i have 2 acc and 2 pc and both toons are at the same place standing next to each other , and i can notice the lag coz when i jump on my 1st toon i can only see myself jump 1/2 sec later on my 2nd toon.(this is normal.) But now its like 1 to 2 sec later

ya right!
yesterday i was with LOTH guys in the morning and afternoon.
from 300, 400+, 600+, 800+ went up all the way to 7k++
i complained like shit like dat. is there any software where i can record my conversation with TMnet? damn i'll post up what shit i said to them lol

219.94.**.** IS NOT ALRIGHT, i feel like murdering someone now.

I just shot up to 5k from 1.8k with occasional timeouts, thank god Im a shadowpriest and my dots killed the mob or I'll be dying for the 8th or 9th time today due to lag.

well, looks like 60.52* had 1-2sec delay at around 6:30 pm. Latency was 600-1000 ms but very obvious lag.

so redialed up and now connected to 128.82.* . Latency was 400-500 ms. lag was ok but there were some strange lag spike just before 9 pm. WoW server lag though, as everyone felt it.

funny thing about lag. the chat channel doesn't lag compared to the game channel.

Added on February 6, 2007, 10:42 pmlooking back at this, i meant to type 0.1 sec rather than 1 sec. doh.

anyway, to help with lag, connection problems is one but PC power is another.

seems like to play WoW, can only have 30 (or so) programmes running in the background. And also to turn of Windows Media Center. No music I guess.

I've been lagging on and off. Sometimes I get maybe 3 or 4 hours of lagless play, then the ping would shoot up to 3k. It happens all the time. Even in the early mornings (4am-6am), so I doubt the network is congested or anything.

I guess there really is nothing we can do about the service except to change ISPs, which is easier said then done considering the monopoly TM has over our local broadband.

two words.

FARK TMNET

-n-

A brand spanking new installation of XP will already have 20-30 processes. Hell, my computer now I have XP, WoW, MS Office and Norton Antivirus installed (and nothing else), and I already have 40 processes. It's probably just people with old old computers running 256mb of ram that are having these problems, I've got 1 gig and I've never had any WoW problems.

512MB.. problems when too many ppl...especially in cities.. 3.20a.m. spike and LAG OUT from WoW.. congrats

I was playing with 256MB on Win2000 before with no problems.

The no. of background processes is one thing. The other is how much "processing power" each program needs to run. Some are less "efficient" than others. More ram can fix it but depends graphic card and pentium chip as well I think. Then more $$$.

Me, I have about 36 running and this was like your case, brand new PC. Let's see : norton, nvidia, zonealarm. 1GB ram with Pentium D 2.66 GHz. Using cheapo graphic card 7300gs but don't dare upgrade to 7800/7900 because of WoW problems with those cards currently and 8800 cards having problems still. Waiting it out. Anyway, WoW for me is 400-500 ms so used to it already. Just don't play main roles in raids unless you have a few ppl who can take up the role in case you hit a lag spike.

I run WoW in full-screen mode. If I run it in windowed mode, it lags more than in full-screen. Also, I keep my browser off unless I need to search for quest tips.

TMNET is part of the major lag problem. Other thing is looks like 200-500 ms latency is common for ppl living far from US but playing on US servers. Even South American players feel it and got the reply that this is normal for the location. They nearer than we are.

Other problem could be the AT&T lines which TMNet connects to. I'm just speculating here. The traceroutes that was posted up seems to stop at server owned by AT&T as others (outside US) who are having problems. From the Technical Support forums anyways. How to fix, no idea.

There is a note from a conference that TMNET looks to be laying more underwater cables direct to US (google it I think, lost the link, some hawaii telco conference). Via some sort of consortium of telcos but no word other than that. If only one of the other local telcos can build their own lines out. Sigh.

Hmm... after the restoration I am getting very bad lag. BEFORE the restoration, I was getting low stable latency.

This is complete utter bullshit.

i'm very laggying when i mining n fishing in the same pc..

Out of curiosity, do you guys leave your PC on the whole day? I do. Helps to keep that fast line connected on all the time.

yeap i do keep it on but will off it once a month i think lol. but my router remains connected

my pc only restart. rarely have the time to off..

Only time my power is off is when i blow my power supply =P

LOLOL

how did u "blow" it?

I've "tried" to turn off my pc every night I went to sleep last time.

I usually turn off my PC but keep my modem on. If I am downloading something, I will keep it on the whole night. My room is definitely several degrees cooler when I didn't turn it on the whole day.

i keep only the monitor off. PC and modem still on.

if i keep the PC off but modem on, makes not difference because i'd have to redial to streamyx and then it's another IP totally. still not good at configuring the ADSL modem.
