A lot better tonight (so far).

It's very variable at the moment but here are my results.

I suggest if we are going to do this we may as well list our modems as well and stick to a simple format like mine below.

Thanks for that :) Good to see that rivrw1 is up to speed, lets hope it stays that way after the conflicting information we seem to be getting from optus. who knows how long it will last.... but i am hopefull...

Looks like its using the "forwarded for" info from the header? As I go through a transparent proxy on my LAN, this seems to mess up result on your page.

It displays the reverse DNS entry for the host, which in ruffrider's case has been proven to be wrong by a traceroute back to his actual address.

A node is also not able to be identified at layer 3... a CMTS has an IP address so can be identified, but a CMTS can terminate from 1 to a few hundred nodes.

rivrw1 .. but shows rivrw4 ? speed is good thats all that matters...lol

ruffrider writes...

but shows rivrw4

The reverse DNS for the IP address that your computer has been allocated by DHCP is wrong. The traceroute that you posted back in the other thread shows that the path goes via rivrw1 ( 14 202 201 201 198.142.160.126 rivrw1-ge3-1.cm.optusnet.com.au )

This looks to be a gigabit ethernet interface (ge3-1) on rivrw1, facing the internet... which makes sense because a traceroute will list Ingress interfaces (i.e the interface that the packets take into the router).

speed is good thats all that matters...lol

I guess it is :)

Just pointing out that the thread is kind of pointless, in that people will think that they're seeing node related information (remember on a cable network the 'node' is the first, and most common, point of contention for subscribers), when in fact they're not seeing this. They are listing a point that aggregates nodes, with no real correlation as to where potential node congestion may be occurring.

Case in point would be, for example, User A is on a node that has nobody else on it. User B.C.D and E are all on another node... both nodes terminate on the same CMTS.

Users BCDand E all see degradation during the evenings, but User A doesn't...

im still on rivrw1 node and im getting this.

I think the overuse of ozspeedtest can be a bit misleading. With a slow machine like the one I'm using now firefox + javascript = lots of overhead, and I think that creates more of a bottleneck than my network access.

Compare my results above with 'wget members.optusnet.com.au/.../pinball_9mb.jpg', where I get 1.27 MB/s. This comports better with the faster results I tend to get from a recent macbook on my network.

members.optusnet.com.au/.../pinball_9mb.jpg

consistent speed... rivrw1 (and a brand new modem as mine crapped out lastnight)

Sure, the speedtest is consistent with other apps on the macbook here too. It's a recent fast machine, and Safari does javascript like lightning.

But on a couple of older machines here, ozspeedtest's figures are never anywhere near what's really available. On those, CPU gets up to 100% whilst the image is being downloaded, and is clearly throttling the download.
