Hinet slow ping times

In just tested my speed … look at the slow ping times

When is Hinet going to get it right? When it’s not speed than it’s ping (latency) they have problems with …

It actually makes surfing slooooow, it’s almost the same as too slow speed … you need to wait loooong for the servers to respond … it’s annoying.

Have you tried traceroute (on windows: tracert) to see which ‘hop’ has the big increase in latency? If it’s your first hop then your actual DSL line is busted or you have a trojan on your network spewing out spam. If it’s later down the line then you can blame Hinet.

Nothing is spewing here … have excellent security and firewalls, a router too …

This is the culprit …

All those traceroutes are quite reasonable, and only the ping to 213.202.100.44 is really out of line. Pings to US should reasonably be 180-220ms from Taiwan. To Europe 350-400ms is typical since most network links here take the long way around through the US. For 213.202.100.44 the traceroute I tried bogs down between hops 18 and 19 in telia.net somewhere in Europe, so I don’t think that’s hinet’s fault.

Yesterday I had 500+ to HK and 600+ to Europe …
