[AusNOG] iinet shaping / traffic prioritisation

[Mark Stewart]

I am running Windows 10 on each of the computers but even at midnight or later, I’m still getting 1.5mbit whilst when on an oversubscribed network you should get faster rates as the night goes on.

The Exchange which I’m on did get a network upgrade some months ago which did resolved a heavy congested network. Since then I haven’t really had much issues with speed during peak times.

Regards,

Mark Stewart

Are you running Windows 10? Could be your local exchange is oversubscribed but you're getting transfers from others on a similar network segment.

Either that, or I've had too much cider someone's playing silly buggers with your network.

Afternoon!



Spotted on our iinet ADSL2+ Offnet Internet connection a clear case of traffic prioritisation / shaping going on. It started about 3 days ago where any traffic other than Microsoft Update traffic was running at 1.5mbit/sec or less.



Perform a Windows update or Office update and the traffic spikes to maximum throughput of the ADSL2+ connection. Have checked this on multiple systems including a brand new notebook on our network with all performing the exact same result. Done the usual checks and the issue is definitely not being generated within the network.



Has anyone else spotted this issue? Especially on Offnet connections?



Regards,



Mark.
