Bad ping to colocrossing NY from the UK?
I'm getting very high ping to CC Buffalo over the past few weeks, is this normal or anything my provider can do? Using BlueVM's test IP I get 297ms, but to Chicago I get 117ms...

In the past few traceroutes there always seems to be an IP belonging to Atrato IP Networks that slows everything down to NY, in this case it's 78.152.57.111.

So they lied?
3 problems
1, BT is a crap ISP and oversold and priorities certain traffic over others
2, Your first hop ping is rather high
colocrossing is a crappy ISP

It's just Atrato being amazing that is (no just really cheap and bad in EU especially)
Probably issues on the Bluevm test machine, @linuxthefish.
@udk please pm me your ip address there might be a return path issue there.
@jbiloh - It's still the same on the CC test IP's and my GVH box (

Ok pm me your ip let me take a look.
As @TarZZ92 says BT is really bad for DSL services. I have two DSL providers at home, BT and Yomura. BT seems to almost always hit Cogent for transatlantic traffic. I see to your IP its hits Atrato/Hibernia, in my experience ANYTHING that goes over Atrato's network is congested, heavy packet reordering or sometimes packet loss. This is not a reflection on Hibernia's network which has been rocksolid for us for 3 years but they are not providing IP but SDH/Wavelength services.
There is a return path issue with your route. We are working on this to correct it.
Just an FYI - I don't see 198.46.140.0/22 announced over Telia. Telia London is passing traffic via Atrato and Level 3 is passing it via XO.
CC Buffalo only has Atrato ATM, IIRC.
@serverian - they also have XO at a minimum.
Probably for failure, yeah. I have not seen any other route than Atrato for the last few months, though.
That's not true. If you look at routes you'll see about 40% of traffic flows over to XO right now. About 20% over Zayo and then the balance over Atrato.
Latency (from virgin media UK) has greatly improved now
Should be fixed now, thanks for pointing this out to us.
Much better now cheers, 110ms.
Hibernia had issues?
You should be surprised if they do NOT have issues.
Maybe I am missing something but the longest round trip I see from your traceroute is 118 ms ....
Hahahahaha! They had their blips.. But getting better nonetheless.
Closed at the request of the thread starter.
