Thread: Internet keeps timing out

My connection keeps timing out when browsing the web, happens in both IE and firefox.

Downloads and gaming seem to be fine though, I can have a download/game going and only the web will timeout. Can still ping websites etc.

Usually after a page refresh it works. But sometimes it happens again within 30 secs (kinda random)

Any ideas?

Was happening before and after a reformat.

Connection details
ADSL2+ using PPPoA

Downstream - Upstream
Data rate(Kbps) 11210 - 933
Noise Margin 12 - 0
Output power(dBm) 30 - 16
Attenuation(dB) 3 - 122

It's been happening to me over the past two weeks also ...
I'm connected to the Casuarina Exchange and within 1Km of it.

Then when it does reconnect, it'll only connect at maybe around 1/2 the normal (usually 20Mbps) or I've seen it connect as low as 2Mpbs.

No idea really but a little frustrating. So is anyone having these problems and if so which exchange are you connected to?

PS: It happened whilst I was typing this message

yeah same here... im on the nightcliff exchange... im with iinet but on a telstra port.

Operational Mode	ADSL2+
Upstream	679
Downstream	7157
SNR Margin(Upstream)	16.0
SNR Margin(Downstream)	26.1
Line Attenuation(Upstream)	15.7
Line Attenuation(Downstream)	25.5

FROM MY HOUSE TO THE EXCHANGE

Line of Sight:	545 m
Estimated Cable:	872 m
Estimated Attenuation:	13
Estimated Maximum Speed:	21666

i normally connect at 19000kbps

I thought PPPOE was ADSL+2

PPPoE and PPPoA are just the tunnels to get the data to your connection.

I was thinking it may be a MTU issue but that wouldnt be the case on PPPoA though. Any of you guys using wireless at all?

PC pluged into router via cable.

I've got wireless and wired. Gigabit and 100mbit I also have 3 different modems ive tried. The problem does not exist between keyboard and chair in this instance.

Tell iinet to fix it Krystin. Better yet fix it yourself and get a promotion because of your l337 skillz.

Just go complain on whirlpool dont think any of the normal techs would be able to help you out.

And I'm on wireless but can connect via cable if needed ... but I cannot see how it can be in any associated to how my speeds are determined by the connection of my internet from my modem to my pc.

ADSL
Type Interleave Path
Status SHOWTIME

Downstream Upstream
Data rate(Kbps) 4783Kb 388Kb
Noise Margin 6 6
Output power(dBm) 122 183
Attenuation(dB) 53 50

---------------

Just as I was about to send the message above, my modem disconnected from the net and now have the following values

Downstream Upstream
Data rate(Kbps) 20365Kb 1021Kb
Noise Margin 6 6
Output power(dBm) 121 171
Attenuation(dB) 27 9

That first speed / sync looks like your connecting in ADSL1+ speeds (G.DMT) have a look at the modulation when you see those speeds.
