I would definately give that a try.

yeah removed for the purposes of the test It was just a wifi booster didn't even think it could be that as my deviced with problems are on ethernet

I wouldn't worry about node 3, geolocation isn't one of vodafone's strong points.

There will be variations, but I don't see any problem.

ah okay thanks right but if at the end of the mtr at google dns im not getting the 320 packets that started from my router im getting 300 of them, i cant be going crazy every single device and game are showing packet loss and ping spikes

Yes, it is working. No dropped packets I can see yet, but it's "early days".

[ayoubs220]

okay thanks yeah if i can just say in games the ping is worst aspect i will load in connected to a server somewhere in the uk the avg ping is always around 10ms any game but then when the broadband takes a dump we ping variation in large amounts like jumps from 10 to 40ms in a matter of seconds and just changes each second 10-12-15-40 etc while getting packet loss but the ping is a much worse situation
