Packet loss with Gigarank only?

[Genesis]

So during the last few days I've noticed pages of Gigarank downloading slower on an intermittent basis, but only with Gigarank. Then this morning after continued intermittent slow downs decided to check this out and discovered serious packet losses with Gigarank. So this then completely puzzles me. Why would I have a 40% packet loss with Gigarank and ZERO packet loss with Frihost and Google? The Gigarank server is in France. The Frihost server in Germany. Google probably has a local server in the UAE.

Anything I can to do on my end to fix this? I don't use WiFi. I have a dedicated broadband fibre optic service. With a direct ethernet cable to my computer. I'm on Windows 7.

Maybe is coming from the server. And its normally when its using shared hosting with alot traffic. I mean we cant predict this situation if the server is always on good respond time. Admin should be check it out. Anyway, I dont get any problem to visit gigarank.

Thanks for the feedback Jaran. Think the only time when it would make sense for the server to be involved is when more than one person gets a packet loss. So far it's only me. On the other hand, this only started with our recent upgrade. And my packet loss is only with Gigarank. All other sites have zero packet loss with the same test. I'm really not that very knowledgeable though of how this works.

OK, someone else with packet loss. I'm not the only one.

Yes.. here's what it shows (again, i have no clue what any of this means)

Ping information

Sent/received: 5/3 Packet loss (%):40% Min resp. time: 40 ms Max resp. time: 40 ms Average resp. time: 24 ms

Packet IP Address ms Lost
1 37.187.74.24 40 -
2 37.187.74.24 40 -
3 N/A - YES
4 37.187.74.24 40 -
5 N/A - YES

--- Just ran it again, and this time it was just the 4th packet lost....

Traceroute shows 9 hops, none lost.

-- ping test again.. 3 packets lost out of 5 (2,3,4)

just did ping once more... 4 packets only this time.. 3 of which (2,3,4) lost

my traceroute looks ok.. but I lost 2 out of 4 packets on the ping

Thanks for the feedback rock4life.

OK, now three people with packet losses. And two others complaining of slow speed. We have a problem.

I can also tell you that someone/bot has been trying to log into my wordpress site.. wordfense has done a nice job of blocking them.. could be a bruteforce attack going on slowing things down

 

[Genesis]

I don't think so. It wouldn't be able to affect the speed of others. Agreed however WordFence is excellent.

I think it must have something to do with how the new server has been configured. Probably easily remedied.

Hmm... its really strange for me. I never using CMS likes WP because I've build my own script it self without using MySQL. My website is also looks fine so far. So I though the trouble are coming from MySQL. I saw all people complain about it. I hope Im not right.

Forum is running slow this morning. I suspect a server caching issue! Where is our famous and multi-talented tech admin @un4saken to diagnose the problem.

That's totally on the mark for me too dude. We need un4.

Testing servers have their limits as pingdom has a limit of 1 sec if a server replies after 1 sec they mark it lost. so the server response has to be optimized

Sometimes when I come here, to the forums, it's down for a while. If I refresh the page it gets back up!
