The above is a reverse traceroute to my public IP address. The actual puplic IP address has been redacted.

Correct me if I'm wrong. It takes 3.012 ms round trip to get from 45.79.12.0 to 192.80.16.21?

It takes the sum of all the hops to get to my public IP address? The one with 60.781 ms.

Notice that as soon as the packet hits Verizon, everything goes to crap. 35.6+41.1+41.7

i think this is unacceptable.


This
PING my public IP from my computer 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from my network to my public IP: icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=32.1 ms
64 bytes frommy network to my public IP: icmp_req=2 ttl=64 time=30.8 ms
64 bytes from my network to my public IP: icmp_req=3 ttl=64 time=28.8 ms
is a ping from my network to my public IP.

usually this time is <1ms.

I'm having all sorts of issues like a name server response isn;t fast enough. gmail complains that something is wrong. one drive has a hard time connecting.

An NDT speed test gets: 1.07 Mbps down and and 660 kpbs up. I used to have a solid 2.8 and 680K with a 3 Mbps provision.

It also gets:
Network latency: 388 msec round trip time


Jitter: 656 msec


and

Lnk speed is about 5.8k and I'm supposedly 8800 ft form the central office. I don't know line attenuation nor if I'm connected to ADSL, ADSL2 or ADSL2+.

verizon support just wants to send out a tech and there isn't much he can do. The resuts are time of day dependent.

Does this mean that the time to reach my IP address

I need confirmation that Verizon sucks and how I might go about getting it fixed?

This is a wireless link, but on a direct wired link I've seen jitter at 1.5 SECONDS.

I have a Actiontec GT784 modem which has the following commands

I haven;t played with them while online because I mostly run in Bridge mode.

What do you mean "reverse" traceroute?
Correct me if I'm wrong. It takes 3.012 ms round trip to get from 45.79.12.0 to 192.80.16.21?
No. The numbers are relative to the origin of the device that initiated the trace route.
It takes the sum of all the hops to get to my public IP address? The one with 60.781 ms.
No. the hop delays are not cumulative. They are relative to the origin of the device that initiated the trace route.
