    Routing from Sydney to LAX/SIN was excellent last week, but has regressed today :(

    That is actually surprising to hear since there was no word of any optimizations, but they may have been working on it. :)

    How was the latency? ~100ms?

    Was 155ms to LAX and 130ms to SIN. I don't think it has changed for the entire week, so that seems to be consistent with what you (didn't) hear. Nevertheless it was pretty good, especially for LAX (155ms was one of the best for me).

    Today it's 215 and 160 :cry:

    When did this happen? Lots of rerouting (esp. on Telstra services) due to the Level3/Centurylink borkage Sunday evening Eastern Australian time... I had lots of latency all day Sunday prior to the blow up too with a Telstra connection, and domestic traffic problems on Aussie Broadband... (although my MaxKVM connections settled down (with my .sg connection going back to 270ms from Sydney :lol: )

    I don't have anything monitoring the latency, so no idea when it increased. Just an ad hoc ping.

    Smokeping is your friend :) I'm also using a mrvm NAT vps in Singapore to vpn through to my MaxKVM sg service, which provides a bit of temporary relief until MaxKVM gets their sg latency sorted

    SIN has come back down to 130ms for me :)

    LAX remains sub-optimal at 215ms :(

    Thankyou to everyone who posted in this thread helping me sort it all!

  • Great to see so many add-ons, upgrades, and additional VPS purchases from current users! No better review than that.

  • Just heard that some optimizations were finally completed for India. =)

    Can anyone with a VPS in SG confirm with latency/traceroute tests?

    Ordered the smallest box using EDU50. This is now my only box in Asia.
    If 70% off on Black Friday happens, I may get a bigger one.

    The existential question is: how long would it idle before I setup my website there?
    The record so far is 9 months.

    It this really an existential question? Sounds more like you are asking the chicken god @MaxKVM if he will be giving 70% off for BF.

    It this really an existential question?

    In the past, I order one box per year. Two weeks before expiration, I start looking at LowEndBox.com and try to find a new box, then move the website there.

    Nowadays, this forum as well as the wrong green forum appear on my Chrome homepage, so that I would click on them when bored. This causes impulsive buys and I have more boxes than websites.


    I did a quick ping test from China, and it's terrible.

    • China Telecom: minimum 233ms, maximum 407ms, average 360ms
    • China Unicom: minimum 241ms, maximum 392ms, average 293ms

    ping.chinaz.com

    This is 46% slower than my current Los Angeles Psychz box.


    37% of my visitors are in China. Asia 51%, Americas 28%, Europe 19%.
    I have mostly search traffic and visitors only view one page, so that latency is critical for faster establishment of TLS connection.
    I think I'm better off keeping the website in Los Angeles for now.

    I have mostly search traffic and visitors only view one page, so that latency is critical for faster establishment of TLS connection.
    I think I'm better off keeping the website in Los Angeles for now.

    Given that data - it's not even a question, there's no question that'd you be better off keeping the LA one.

  • My first experience with a Singapore box was in 2013, with OneAsiaHost.
    They offer two products with same hardware, one called "SSD VPS" with lower bandwidth but direct routing to China, the other called "Core VPS" with higher bandwidth but no direct China.

    https://perfops.net/traceroute-from-china suggests that the path from China to MaxKVM Singapore box goes through AS174 (Cogent) in USA.
    I guess this falls into "Core VPS"-like category.

    I know wholesale bandwidth going to China is expensive. I hope there's a choice to have lower monthly bandwidth but direct routing to China. That would be fragrant.


    Anyway, I would not request a refund. Whether I'll pay for next month is a different question.

    Our traces show that traffic from China is taking the scenic route through London/Paris/Amsterdam to Singapore. :/

    We will have to wait for Limelight to report back on this one now.

    China has three major operators: China Telecom, China Unicom, China Mobile.
    Each operator offers landline, LTE, and Internet services.
    They have separate IP transit arrangements for international connections.

    The route going through Europe might be just one of these networks.


    As comparison, traceroute to LAX looking glass:

    traceroute

    • Hop 1-11 are the same, which means China Mobile routes all international traffic through Hong Kong.
    • After that, there's no Limelight.

    Limelight should be able to optimize routes for China. Waiting for their response on this issue now.

    havent really seen this before. fast optimization works from MaxKVM.

    i wish u good business.

    I bench YABS 24/7/365 unless it's a leap year.

    I’m not a regular user. I have a PhD in computer networking. My grad school classes include major Internet protocols such as BGP and OSPF. I also know how to build a 100 Gbps router.

    My current immigration status doesn’t allow me to receive payment, otherwise the providers could be hiring me as consultants.


    As for Limelight, this issue is not completely in their control. In BGP, you can influence route choice by adjusting ASPATH length.

    If China Mobile Hong Kong peers with Limelight in San Jose only, they’ll usually prefer sending traffic to San Jose.

    The only way I can think about is for Limelight to “worsen” the Singapore IPv4 prefix by prolonging its ASPATH, so that China Mobile Hong Kong would send traffic to Equinix Singapore instead.

    However, the IPv4 prefix in question is actually announced from HIVELOCITY, so that Limelight has no (technical) obligation to change anything, and HIVELOCITY has no power through their announcements.
