There was yet another interruption in my broadband services today due to "hardware malfunction". According to Jari Kauhanen commenting on TurunKaapelitelevisio facebook page, this malfunction appeared while updating some systems. I have no confirmation whether or not this actually was the case. If they were updating systems I wonder why not set up IPv6 networking once and for all. As far as I know TDC is already capable of providing native IPv6 connectivity for them.
Turun Kaapelitelevisio was acquired by Sonera a while ago. I feared I would notice a decline in the quality of service. I really do hope that this is just a glitch the will fix asap. Traceroute shows that they still use TDC as their ISP, so no changes in that part.

Update 20.8.2010
Performance is back to normal. As you may see from the pictures I'm using a different computer for measuring the speed. The other computer maxed out at 88M and was fluctuating too much.

I suspect the interruptions in downloading are due to aria2-downloader. It took 4m 44s to download a 2840MB dvd. Transfer speed was 9,99 MB/s or 80,00Mb/s
