yes..even in chennai.. sites like wikipedia doesnt open at all..anyway raised the issue thru' airtel websiteAnybody else on Airtel Broadband at Bangalore encountering slow speeds since yesterday? It has been absolutely horrible since last evening.
I am also facing this issue from yesterday, most of sites like amazon.in etc.. are taking too long to open. But when downloading torrents it gives full bandwidth.
Amazon and microsoft cannot be pinged, because they might have disabled icmp protocol. Tata issue has nothing to do with Airtel's issue, looks like problem is restricted to be a specific region.I noticed that too, though I didn't even dare think about torrents given the horrible speed on HTTP downloads. Pinging amazon.in and microsoft.com results in a request timeout although the websites open but terribly slowly. Pings to google.com go through and Google works fine. Speedtest.net to some servers in US, EU just does not even start while on some others within the US, EU it works fine. Looks like some core router out there has got its routing tables screwed up. Will raise the issue with Airtel for what it's worth.
Alternately, this could be related to the damaged undersea cable on the segment to Mumbai. Thought I saw a post on this forum or another one but can't seem to locate it now.
Yes, i noticed it and found my download speed averaged 1.5Mb/s (!)Anybody else on Airtel Broadband at Bangalore encountering slow speeds since yesterday? It has been absolutely horrible since last evening.
Yep same thing and when i first noticed it and was puzzled.yes..even in chennai.. sites like wikipedia doesnt open at all..anyway raised the issue thru' airtel website
Has this issue resolved? I still can't play online games. I used to get 304 stable ping but now it starts at 280 and then goes upto 400. I hate this lag. Anyone else having still have this issue?
Its not normal until now. Airtel customer care told me it would be resolved in 48 hours I bet it wont be. Don't judge on the browsing and downloading. You can see the real issue if you try online games.It was back to normal by 19/20 Jan, 2015 on Airtel..
