Tried it in a VM off my NAS… wasn’t great, apparently it is only capable of 300 down 
Hmm… yeah 
I guess a lot of people are using it, but it could always be worse. I mean, it’s working
As of: 21:50 - we are back up to line speed
60ms is still pretty good
As I said though guys, it could always be worse… these problems will get ironed out and they can happen on any network
Yeah, but up until March when everything went to hell in a handcart, it was all pretty solid. Since then, I have experienced massive variance in speeds with an obvious downturn when it’s busier in the evenings. Hopefully the guys will be able to do something but they say that the usage isn’t particularly high so assume it must be overutilized further along the core network somewhere.
It’s not a massive issue for me but swings in download speed of 1Gb doesn’t sound like everything is quite right to be honest.

No, it doesn’t to me either. I will agree with you there, I can’t Comment on how it was before March, as I was not a customer until a week ago
However, given my previous service provider was only able to provide a maximum upload of 50mbps. I feel blessed to get even double that
I have got the same broadband checker running on my old VM connection too. That is reporting a latency of 40ms on HFC. My FTTP is currently 60ms to Thinkbroadband, which should not be the case. But I have faith in Yayzi That they will get to the bottom of the issues
This is Virgin Media where our motto is: We like the multicoloured BQM graph, so we strive to make it as yellow as possible
I am not an apologist for Yayzi or anything however this is where I came from, So to see mostly not yellow. Is a breath of Fresh air
Is that using the EX820v?
No, UniFi Ultra cloud gateway

Maybe when they release the Unifi Hyper Pro Max Ultra Cloud it’ll be able to do more with QoS. SQM is edgecase anyhow, the average consumer doesnt give a rats about bufferbloat. But expected a little more from Ubiquiti.

You dont need QOS for 1 gb plus realistically unless you need to make sure VOIP or similar runs at priory and even then its probably not worth the cpu overhead. If you have QOS and your CPU is at 100% causing the connection to throttle thats likely to cause more problems than what QOS will solve.
At 1gb the connection would need to be saturated literally all the time to make QOS worth it, or maybe in scenario where you had 300 workers and VOIP was critical.
Back when DSL or 300mbps lines where the norm QOS was maybe worth it in a home environment.
But i guess its a great way to sell routers.

I’ll add to this thread instead of starting a new one, but my peak time latency and load has been abysmal for a while now. It’s particularly noticeable in online games where my latency to central EU servers jumps from 20ms to 60ms+ with packet loss.
I’m not doing anything with the connection, this is hardwired via Ethernet to the router. A tracert suggests its local congestion:
1 <1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 192.168.1.1
2 37 ms 35 ms 36 ms 185.210.171.129
3 23 ms 18 ms 17 ms 81.25.207.249
4 34 ms 35 ms 38 ms 192.80.16.146
5 43 ms 43 ms 44 ms te1-51-36.core-rs3.thdo.ncuk.net [80.249.97.72]
6 39 ms 37 ms 35 ms po5-32.core-rs4.thdo.ncuk.net [80.249.97.90]
7 41 ms 44 ms 42 ms pingbox1.thinkbroadband.com [80.249.99.164]
Still ongoing then…
Honestly you don’t feel it, having been on avg 25ms on Virgin all the time….
I’m sorry but this just isn’t true, and handwaving it off with whataboutisms about other terrible providers isn’t helping.

I think because I don’t really game much these days, I don’t feel it
I’m still much higher average pings during peak times, hopefully they’ll investigate and get it sorted soon.
As a comparison during peak times my Virgin connection on much older technology is much better.
It’s pretty obviously peak time congestion/over provision, would be interested to know @Yayzi_Team thoughts on it.
We’re doing a lot of investigations around this, and around peak for us is only currently about 33% capacity.
We however believe it maybe the CityFibre port were on, so we’re upping that to 100Gbps and we expect that to make a very noticeable difference. Will be completed in the next couple of weeks.

I don’t think they use traffic management of any kind. Everything seems to download quickly from my experience.
