Well, its time for a Rogers Internet update. Seems since my last entry (back in September) things have been working pretty smoothly with the new modem. No major outages or problems since.

However, I've noticed some degradation in the past week or so and I am concerned that this is going to lead to another year of bad times with Rogers. Looking at the graph for the last 3 hours (it is very similar over the last week or so), I'm seeing 9% packet loss (that just sucks) and an average ping time of 120ms to the first router. Normally I would see something in the range 100ms less than this. We're going to start to approach modem ping times which would be really bad.

So, crossing our fingers but my prediction is that you'll see me posting here with a really bad connection very soon.
