No, I haven't reported it to the carrier for a while. I think I did at one point in the past and the result was it went to the testing team queue, sat there for 2 days until someone got around to looking at it at which point the service had righted itself and job was closed with "no fault found".

Hopefully this image link works for you:

The rain event was centered on 3pm that day (Sat 16/11). Grey/brown line is packet loss (LH axis is %), blue, cyan, magenta is min, avg, max response times on RH axis.

Yes, there is a continual packet loss of about 0.4%. 


I will report a fault on it and see what happens this time, just out of curiosity. Given the weather outlook for this summer it could be happening a lot more frequently.


regards,
Tony.

And does this "rain fade" on ADSL get reported to Telstra, or any
    other ISP, as a fault? If so, what is the fault code?
(I don't see  rain fade, I'm on HFC, but enquiring minds would like
    to know)
