EDIS HK test server network issues -- ping spikes and dropping packets
Hi, I would like to check if this is normal or just some kind of fluke with the test server
From Shanghai on China Telecom I am getting between 4-8% packet loss to the test server in HK, while I get around 1% to hk.vr.org. Also pinging from my box at VR.org I found some spikes up to 206ms from a regular ping of around 2 ms. Is the test box just overloaded or is this what to expect from the VPS in normal operation? I'd like to switch but I'd rather spend the money if i can avoid spikes and packet loss. Aside from this I've noticed that the routing through pacnet is looking really good now from the looking glass, but I need reliability too..
--- 158.255.208.1 ping statistics ---
143 packets transmitted, 143 received, 0% packet loss, time 142210ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.628/7.313/206.951/29.213 ms

Yes, you can go complain at China Netcom, Telecom and Railway for overloading their links to HK - Nothing we or the DC can do about it.
vr.org uses a completely different path, which is why they can avoid it partly.
Over-saturated lines I guess. I've noticed the same recently, and really there's nothing we can do with this kind of problem.
That still doesn't explain why I sometimes get spikes up to 200 ms ping from Hong Kong -> Hong Kong.
Try a traceroute. It'll give you a more detailed look at where the latency starts.
Bandwidth incoming too small
Often to upgrade data china, very slow

Recently the network of china telecom is ajusting,so don't waste time to test network.And the network in china is really complicated,there is no absolute stability.
I was testing network all the time,EDIS's new HK DC is always the fastest level.
@usiew my edis HK is very good. Suspect you abuse your bandwidth and are under limiting.

Edit:
I noticed my resolving line is different, maybe you are selecting a bad mirror.
Kudos for reviving a thread from September 2012.
And with the best English
Well, from a topical point of view adding something to the same topic is quite logic and saving numerous scattered threads on the same topic.
