Anyone else having this problem? It¦s preventing me from playing the game as it either results in major slow gameplay or server status being unknown (both TQ and SiSi). The problem IP address is 213.200.79.130 and the DSNName is telecity-redbus-gw1.ip.tiscali.net.

hmm, are you using a tiscali owned ISP? They are just as bad. Also, I think the dropped packets are probably intentional, Ti****ty were blocking EVE a while back. Guide to forum posting |

I don¦t think my local ISP is Tiscali owned but I¦m on the phone right now going to ask who they do business with over in the UK :)
I heard about the blocking thing as well, it was a while back though. Wonder if they have taken it up again

I used to be with Tiscali and yes they blocked EVE 100%
I call 'Bull****' CCP. Isn't it great that the alchemy process was introduced & can 'take up the slack?' |

Yeah, ran the pingplotter and it's only 7 hops to the router and I see no suspicously high numbers on any of them, can browse the internet and all that stuff.

You see, here we actually have a competitive market, instead of each company carving out a territory in which it has a monopoly (with one notable exception). Most households have a choice of 3 or more suppliers. --- 20:1 mineral compression ISRC Racing, Season 7 - schedule |

Actually, BE* do have a Fair Usage Policy, but that's what it actually is, Fair Usage, not a fixed limit. The actual wording from the FUP is
Quote:
What about excessive network usage?
If it’s felt that any Be member’s Internet activities are so excessive that other members are detrimentally affected, Be may give the member generating the excessive web traffic a written warning (by email or otherwise). In extreme circumstances, should the levels of activity not immediately decrease after the warning, Be may terminate that member’s services.
Which in practise means you have to work pretty hard to get in trouble. Before we swapped to them, I looked into it heavily and have read reports of people pulling down 900gb+ of data in a month and not hearing any complaints. The main way they can actually do that is due to the fact that they're a partial LLU supplier, so aren't having to pay BT wholesale rates for data traffic, but instead have their own backhaul network.

These LINX related problems have been present since November and it is only now when you finally acknowledge there is one? Are you kidding me? ____________________ CCP: Catering to the cowards of a cold, harsh universe since November, 2006. |

Thank you CCP Explorer for the feedback, glad it's being looked at. Today has been no play day for me unfortunately as I have been struggling to try everything I could to get things going again.
It so happens that I am in Iceland and I am using Vodafone as my local ISP. I see now from the ping plotter that the packets are no longer going through designated Tiscali nodes and no packets dropped but I'm still not able to play the game (either on TQ or SiSi) due to failure to log in/and or extreme lag and socket closed issues.
I've filed a bug report on one of those accounts. Hope it helps.
Cheers

Have you considered dragging them to court for deliberately blocking Eve yet? It's not the first time they are doing it.. ----------------------------------------------

Its ADSL, so it depends a *lot* on your telephone line quality and distance from the exchange.
The number of people who can get 20MB on that package is tiny. You literally have to live next to the exchange.
I'm on that 20MB package and I sync at 7meg. Nothing 'wrong' with the connection, it's just the way the technology works.

This issue should be resolved now, Vodafone Iceland is now routing differently to avoid Tiscali.

My meaning was slightly ambiguous. I didn't want to imply that Be have no FUP (although compared to many other ISPs it certainly feels that way), just that the one they had was different.

Good work CCP Explorer, the data packet loss was much to high through their nodes to be acceptable.
But here is the mistery, I logged in at 7:45 EVE time and as you said no Tiscali nodes and everything was working excellent. Breezed through log in and character selection and lag ingame was no where to be found. I check the ping plotter and see no Tiscali nodes so I think \o/ WIN!
BUT I WAS WRONG! 
I come back now at 10:00 EVE time and things are back to being server status unknown, stuck on authentication and/or disconnected due to connection to server lost/Socket closed issues. It's about the same time this started happening to me yesterday. Seems I'll have another day of not playing EVE. Good thing there is good weather so I can go out and enjoy this so called real life 
Looks like prime time traffic throttling to me, who ever is doing it I don't know.
Cheers

Traffic is going back through Tiscali like it was before with packet loss etc. Vodafone Iceland seems to have a very short memory LOL
