[bykte]

sigh same for me..woodlands area..facebook lags yuotube lags surfing the web is more a chore than a joy. this is what happens when starhub increases their bandwidth for their plans w/o doing any upgrade at all..

[davpiyo]

Me too! FB, Image Shack and some others site lag

[Obviouz]

normal... starhub ma.

[DenverSuker]

everything seem to be working fine for me now.......

[winguy]

seems to be better now...

[snowydust]

i also encountering the same problem, living in woodlands...sighz i need to do my proj yet i cant use the internet...damn

[ahdibuao]

[xuejia22]

Today's traffic is the worst for me. Can't even load my school website fully.

[snowydust]

same here, i can't even download my sch stuff too... just hope starhub fix asap...

[phuque99]

Maybe share what's your SH public IP address. I noticed that 202.156.* range was flaky. Forced IP renew to 59.189.153.* range and the issue was fixed. Probably a bad set of proxy servers were assigned to the former.

erm...how to do this?

[phuque99]

go http://www.whatismyip.com

[lahgal]

I also encounter the same problem yahoo website cannot see pictures all in white box with a red cross, so its starhub problem not my computer is it? make me do system restore, cc cleaner, etc I thought what happen...
Any solutions for this? cannot change to snbb coz I just came over from there(regretted so much), either i stay with starhub one more year or apply for another snbb contract - starhub surflite user at Ubi

oh my then i am the unlucky one to have connected to flaky ip...
it is so not good..... mine was just fine in the afternoon...but now
its back to the same old problem again

[phuque99]

You're not alone, I've seen very intermittent issue with SH today. 1000-2000ms ping responses all the way to Singnet IPs on every hop, starting from the first SH router. Packet losses up to 20%. Support from SH will refuse to admit or they are not informed abou this though.

Here are some values for good measure on continuous ping

src IP 202.156.169.1 dst IP 165.21.83.88

--- 165.21.83.88 ping statistics ---
650 packets transmitted, 451 packets received, 30% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 9.761/413.437/22978.025 ms

[LemonT]

Is the issue cannot load pictures or the loading takes very long??

What is the error msg when the picture is clicked?

[snowydust]

theres no error, just that most websites images not loaded, and is very laggy for some websites

Since Starhub works on DHCP leases, how is it possible to "force" the IP range to that you mentioned? Isn't this a matter of "luck" and randomness? I too have encountered slow loading times with images (eg. on Facebook). What I noticed was that a double refresh sometimes fixed it, but that's too much of a hassle, and shouldn't be a "solution" in the very first place.

[sk1609]

my ok now. hope it remains.

[pacific2000]

all is fine now, finally

[altertainment]

i am having the sam problem too.. i am not able to pot any replies or psot any threads in HWZ forum recently. I have no idea wad is going on. I'm using Starhub Ultimate btw.

[altertainment]

Oh and im replying from office =/

Yes, it is assigned by random so its your luck. It helps if you could modify your router or pc mac address as the leased is tied to the mac for some time.

[xuejia22]

Still having the same problem.. Called starhub. They know the problem and are checking it...

[Boner]

same problem here using free internet from hub station. Mobileme and facebook got problem loading the images over the past weekends. Hope problem is solved when i get back home tonight.

[dawngold17]

tat is my problem also! im in JW and using SH MOL. some web pages can load pics while others cannot... last wk still ok.... anyone can help?

[twtan14]

For my case Photobucket is so slow in loading pictures.

[ackrapovic]

I Encountered the same weird problem too...i managed to talk to service operator of my isp though...although it took 15 mins each time just to speak to the operator....

Before i call the s%$Hub hotline, i narrowed down the problem by using different OS ( UBUNTU) and browser ( MOZILLA FOX ) with all the router detached....same problem. i called my friend whos working in s%$Hub, they admitted to having some problem....

The funny thing, when the operator ask for my ip and i tried it works....i tried again this time with my windows and internet explorer, it works except when its connected to the router...i tried several times...RESULT : its not ok when connected to the router.....

I'm not convinced though its router problem, i hope its more to the isp provider...knowing their parent , grandparent company lost a lot of money already....

hope to try again tonight....wait a min...while im typing this , a guy from s%$hub called and wants me to help him verify something tonight......hahaa..finally they are doing something.....

[snowydust]

[DenverSuker]

everything seem fine till now but i do notice that donwloading of files seem
to be pretty bad for me ..... i'm not referring to BT as I dont use them...
but normal downloading of files from email..or download.com...etc..

[phuque99]

you guys could try using winmtr to chart your latency over time on these "bad timings":
http://winmtr.sourceforge.net/

Just don't bother trying US sites but you could use some local IP. You could see how bad latency is all the way, including starhub's own nodes when they are congested.

But do remember that most routers de-prioritize such packets, and probably your own router too. Thus if you're on utilizing your router heavily, it will contribute to delays.

try using ur neighbour's connection. u will be surprised that u will be able surf seemlessly.

If I'm not wrong, its criminal offense when you get caught doing that.

[superkid]

physically bring ur laptop to ur neighbour's or seek permission lar. cannot be singaporeans aren't on talking terms with their neighbours right?

[DenverSuker]

[xuejia22]

Do update on the status of your problem. Mine was alright after I called in on Monday. But since Tuesday, it has been utterly atrocious.

This is really ridiculous

[superkid]

good for one day then it's back to normal. Time to complaint and make sure they waive the subscription.

[osimese]

[Navigator]

[NWT1978]

[ah000jim]

im staying at chai chee and this problem has been around for 2 mths already! ive called em up but they say im receiving the right amount of bandwidth frm them! damn. its not that but something else. anyone knows how to solve this problem? its lagging and images just cant seem to load properly. :(

[Weinter]

They are right when they say you are receiving the right bandwidth
The problem is their foreign website routing table
I am also experiencing the same problem
