[EN] Unstable video calls, lost packets, high ping

Datrio — Thu, 13 Jan 2022 21:34:36 GMT

Hello all, sorry for writing in English. For the past ~2 months I have had issues with bad Vodafone Internet. I mainly have video calls each day and every day my connection breaks up, sometimes it completely disconnects for a few seconds, sometimes just people on the other side cannot hear me. While playing some small online games, I also have a horrible ping.

The download/upload speed are fine in general, but the lost packets really make my Internet experience unbearable.

A week ago while talking with my neighbor she told me she had the same issues, so I assume it could be an issue in the whole building.

Diagnostic info:

Berlin 10557
Red Internet & Phone 500 Cable
Vodafone Station
LAN cable

Hello Datrio,

the problems occur each time of the day, right? I would like to have a look at your connection. Please send me a PM with the following details:

- your name

- the full address

- the customer number

- birth date of the contract owner

Leave a short reply with the date and time the problem occured the last time via ethernet here in your thread.

Kind regards,

Claudia

Hi Claudia!

The Internet has issues at very random times - I have a feeling that every evening its getting worse. Right now I got a very high ping around 16:40 (17th Jan), screenshot attached.

Hey @Datrio,

i would like to send you a technician, there are multiple modem values not okay. Do you agree to a technician's visit and can you provide access to the house? What is the best number to call to make an appointment?

Regarding COVID-19: Are you in quarantine or are there symptoms in your household that indicate COVID-19?

Regards

Tobias

Hi Tobias, yes, I agree to the visit. No COVID symptoms and not in quarantine. I'll send you the phone number in a PM.

Hello Datrio,

We still need to know whether the technician can get to the house system/the distribution box. This is usually located in the basement.

Many greetings

Jana
