M1 results are terrible right now towards USA. Recorded at 11.20PM which is a peak period.

I have a suspicion which transit provider is causing this but I need to do more tests :D

OVH (AU) trace to Starhub. SH also seems affected by high latency. :s13: So far the common factor is NTT when passing transiting through Japan.

Singtel is sending traffic for a local Anycast IP to Japan. But aside from how crappy Singtel is, look at how bad the latency is passing through NTT to Japan.

NTT seems to be performing really badly for the past few months. I'm on MR, and when I see a return path coming through NTT, I need to route it via Cloudflare WARP, so that the data flows via Arelion instead.

Indeed IPv4 connection from Singtel to ControlD DNS is very bad. IPv6 is much better.

Indeed IPv4 connection from Singtel to ControlD DNS is very bad. IPv6 is much better.

FYI: Singtel SpeedTest server has got some problems for a while. It is still not working now.

Another thing, Starhub OOkla SpeedTest server (4235) seems to be down.

Good improvement coming from Singtel. Not sure for how long. :s13:

Eight Home.
In my other testing, Eight has good connectivity to USA vs Singtel.

Quite impressive actually. Usually only get this few reds on premium VPN.

M1 results. There are some minor routing differences between different blocks for now (some have Telstra inbound and some do not). Used to have no difference last time.

At this point I'm inclined to believe that customers on old plans are getting shafted through poor routing.

Hi all,


I’m currently on M1 and exploring whether other ISPs like StarHub or Eight might offer better routing/latency, especially to China and global nodes.


Before deciding, I’d like to gather some real-world comparisons across different providers.


If you’re using StarHub, Eight, (or even M1 for reference), could you help run this quick diagnostic and share your results?


How to run:

My result (M1):

Thanks in advance—would be great to see how different networks compare!
