Saibot or someone - my internet is shit, keeps lagging sometimes for 5s in peak times, sometimes it works well. It's Wi-Fi net.

I need to pressure the provider to increase the signal strength / to pressure my landlord to change provider altogether.

What are the best continuous sites/software that show latency/packet loss/download speed over a longer period?

Tried long time with google mostly only speed and ping one off programs or ones that dont work for czech republic

Is it your private connection? Try http://www.wikihow.com/Tell-If-an-Outside-User-Is-on-Your-Wireless-Network
Then see if it gets better if you're connected directly to the modem/outlet. If it's not your connection but your wifi
I'd try to get a stronger antenna for the modem.

Usually the best way to get an ISP to own up to a fault on their end is to call them during the outage and have them run their own diagnostics on your account in real-time. Otherwise they will forever blame you and the complexity of the intersphere and blogonets for potential slowdowns. Even then I have never actually had an ISP really do anything about it. The cost of upgrades is not worth it to satisfy 1 complaint. The only time they'll do it is if it's either part of some planned roll out, at which time it will happen per their own schedule regardless of circumstances, or if they have some kind of traffic monitoring of their own in place that blatantly demonstrate there is a serious problem with one of their repeaters.

We had a corporate contract with Verizon servicing 1400 employees with a cell tower about 1 mile from our office that was obviously peaked out at certain times in the day. Verizon acknowledged this, then shrugged their shoulders and said "oh well". We threatened to cancel our entire contract with them and they still didnt give a shit. We dealt with it for 6 months preparing to switch before finally one day everything magically resolved itself. I dont think our threats had anything to do with it, they simply decided it was time to update that piece of shit tower to handle more users. Our office was in a random industrial area of the city probably only used by passers-by so they didnt really care to provide much bandwidth to the area. My guess is it only got upgraded because they were probably upgrading all sorts of shit around town and it was finally our turn.

Anyway you dont really need any particular site to prove connectivity issues. I've been able to get free service from comcast by sending screenshots of my command prompt pinging www.google.com at 560ms once cross-referenced with a tech trying to ping back my modem. Combine that with something like speedtest.net showing that you're getting 0.8mbsp instead of the 30mbps you were advertised. They'll still hem and haw about it because you could be running uTorrent or something, but with a few phone calls during the actual downtimes and they'll at least react.

Basically, they have Wifi spots across the whole city, install an antenna on the roof of the building, it's not my router issue. Obviously if they connect too many people or the signal strength is weak it will cause issues

sup lemon. sorry I never respond at the table, I voluntarily blocked myself from chat a LONG time ago.

I'll be playing more in the next little bit, yeah. Getting used to a new set-up, so might be a bit stupid lol (aka sit w/ me). also probably transitioning into a new job in mid jan, so gonna fucking give it hell for the next few weeks.

Cheers man, happy holidays.
