Like lots of folks, I was impacted by the peering outage last night and was migrated to the shiny new network (with a new public IP, gateway etc)… since then, though, I’m experiencing packet loss that was never present before:
You can see from the graph there that there was zero loss prior to 21:47 last night, complete outage until about 00:26 when I was migrated and the router picked up new details etc, but since then there’s been intermittent spikes of loss large enough to kill a Zoom session (I work from home)… anyone else experiencing this?
Still offline, however it has been mentioned a few times that the new transit provider - while offering better peering and transit diversity - may have the odd issue initially. While it’s got to be annoying for you, i’d expect the first priority will be getting the last of us migrated/online before investigating latency issues.
Yes, I posted in the other thread that this looks like a DHCP issue. The DHCP lease time is 1 minute and so needs renewing. Every time you router tries to renew the lease there is something going wrong with the DHCP server which causes the connection dropouts for around 5 seconds or longer
I haven’t dug into the why but there are certainly periods of 100% packetloss - lucky for me I only have to endure a brief blip while opnsense falls back to WAN2 (Virgin Media, the connection I was hoping to ditch) but it’s still rather frustrating.
The fact that Avalon is still offline boggles the mind - a 12hr outage would have all the alarm bells ringing at $work (I work for a large network equipment vendor who supply a great deal of kit to telcos)…
Rebooted ONT and router etc. - still can’t access Disney due to region issues - can access fine via my VM link. Also, latency seems all over the place and more packet loss than before the outage.
