What is the network upgrade today?

We just setup our peering at SGIX. So we will be adding more peering routes in the days to come.

Viewqwest now peers at SOX, SGIX and Equinix peering exchange.

Any upcoming peering at NTT's new Serangoon DC? If you guys dropping by, give me a ring. I will try to make time to meet up for coffee. ;)

NTT does not run a peering exchange at this time at their DC. OpenNet does cover their location, still waiting for an excuse to pull fiber in there :D

Viewqwest, can you please perform ping test and tracert test for gw1.ibllc.com

This is important for some of us who uses Interactive Brokers online execution platform to USA.
Hopefully a lower ping time and lesser hops.

2 more questions.

Can you confirm that I can have direct wired connection at the same time to 2 desktop PC using zhone ONT GE1 and GE2 port?

Are you able to provide 5 meter fibre cable instead of 3 meter?

I will chip in my effort as a subscriber of VQ fibernet when I get home tonight. ;)

Hi Heidel,

Yes that is not a problem. We can configure both GE1 and GE2 for your Internet connection.

Let our customer service folks know that you need a 5m cable and they will be able to quote you for one.

I don't think there is a longer power cable for the Zhone. We'd have to ask our vendor and if there was one we'd have to get it shipped from the US... I recommend using a power extension.

Thanks for the test.:s12:

Tested with cable before and now with Singnet adsl getting an average 270ms and about 15 hops. Your test shows better overall ping time and only 10/11 hops. If Viewqwest can further improve the test result, that will be great because this is very crucial for a stable and reliable connection that requires high/fast speed execution trading platform with the lowest latency and minimal hops to the States.

Still waiting to see M1 test, until now no one respond to my request for ping/tracert test.

Thanks. That's good news for me.
I prefer wired connection especially dealing with online trading platform for all desktop PCs.
Also directly connected from zhone ONT to PCs, avoiding all the unnecessary additional modem/router and cables.
Am I correct? should I need wi-fi, the zhone wireless features is still there for iPad and mobile handset for wi-fi connection.

The Zhone ONT is our "modem" with integrated router functions. All in one device.

Installation just took place around 4pm.

Asked to be on bridged mode - but didn't realise you guys actually lock via MAC address :( so i can't freely swap routers around & I guess it captured the wrong port MAC ID - so i need a reset :(

Also, the static IP/IPv6 will be issued later or?
