    @tomazu Hello, sir, I find a serious problem about network that the testing ip(194.39.205.4) gets a heavy packet loss connecting to the global internet
    http://ping.pe/194.39.205.4
    you can see it on this website

    thank you for the feedback, I have verified directly on the node and the ICMP traffic level currently is very high so that ICMP packets are getting dropped/rate-limited by the firewall.

    I will raise the limit for ICMP traffic, but this is not a network problem, it just seems that the testing IP is being heavily tested at the moment - this has nothing to do with your server or the network generally :-)

    UPDATE:
    I have adjusted the ICMP traffic rate, could you please test again?

    testing ip (194.39.205.4) result

    my server ip(194.39.205.x9) result

    the testing ip (194.39.205.4) ICMP result seems much better now, in terms of global internet
    But compared with my server ip(194.39.205.x9), the testing ip displays much worse performance when connecting to China internet, you can see the contrast through pictures above.

  • I also noticed that they are limiting the ICMP traffic. However, about 15% packet loss in China is really normal for non-China optimized network s.

    if you look at the pictures carefully, you would notice that official testing ip (194.39.205.4) get red with every China node, but my actual server ip(194.39.205.x9) get red with only half of the China nodes, the other half is total green.
    That's abnormal, right?

    This has been requested many times on the WHMCS forums and they still haven't added such option on the customer end too.

    That's correct, this is normal for non-china optimized networks especially during busy hours.

    Sydney seems to have a higher latency than usual as well but I guess that's mostly towards the Vultr server that ping.pe uses as with most german providers I get around 256ms on that node. Using a different test location than Vultr for Sydney gives me better latency/routing results.

    yes, this is done manually - as it seems a custom hook would be possible to get this done, but currently you need to open a ticket if you want the Stripe token to be removed from your account.

    sometimes even for China optimized networks :-)

    that is correct and I think we can shave off 60-80ms from that route towards Vultr by routing over Cogent! Will optimize for the routes displayed on ping.pe as it seems those are the ones that matter ;-)

    Indeed

    ping.pe is indeed pretty popular but I'd always do additional tests as in this case.

    New customer here and the performance of your service is great so far, will be able to provide a better feedback in a few months.

    Very nice to see Traditional Chinese (not Simplified Chinese). Not many people are wise enough to choose this.

    thank you very much. In the coming days I will try to optimize the routing towards China and Asia in general.. as it seems it requires manual intervention, it should already be better and will be even better - at least from what we can do from our part - in the next days.

    I appreciate all feedback.
