JioFiber Review: 1+ Year Experience

[Skye]

Just Restart your JioFiber.

I tried. I have faced some slowness in the past which was fixed by doing this, but this seems to affect only streaming and only at around 6-7 PM to 8 to 9 PM (yesterday it kept happening until the whole night).

Jio fiber ping is high compared to our local isp so u will see noticable lags in opening apps.U have to close and open again.All jio users can definitely notice this irrespective of their plan speed

Actually, now the case is different. My local ISP used to give 23-24ms but now it is highly unstable 45-60ms. Still, browsing speed is slightly better. Not as good as before but still better than Jio.

Bit similar issues today, except YouTube is working fine but JioCinema and MyJio app are not working at all.

EDIT: Seems like it was IPv6 issue. Fixed now.

I have been noticing that my ping to Hyderabad and Singapore have mostly been lower than before.

Earlier, Hyderabad ping used to mostly be around 45-55ms, now it is mostly around 30-35ms in this site. Singapore ping used to be around 85-100ms, but nowadays stays mostly around 70-85ms.

Mumbai ping still sucks at 30-60ms.

Very bad experience before installation. No coordination between sales and installation team, bleaming each other. Totally wasteing my time. Only giving false reason(reedamsion nahi hua, raat ko installation nahi hota, sales walo ko maloom nahi hota hai lot ke bareme etc. Etc.).

Noticed that ping from third hop (as well as Jio Raipur) and later are now around 8ms, instead of 15-25ms. I see 15-25ms ping for Jio Bhopal too, so same ping for Jio Raipur was horrible, since I live like 300kms far from Raipur. I also noticed that instead of IPv4 address of Bhopal or Indore, I am getting IPv4 address of Raipur and Bhilai.

Ping is different each time I connect to them, except for Google DNS (being 40-70ms instead of 30-45ms) and Cloudflare DNS (being 28-35ms instead of 40-45ms).

For Valorant, it is similarly changing between 30ms to 70ms in each match session.

Kinda funny thing is, few days ago I asked for screenshots from my friend who is having Airtel Fiber. He was having 8ms ping to Airtel Raipur and 25-28ms ping to Mumbai servers. Being the ping-jealous type, I decided to complain to multiple email addresses of Reliance Jio employees including Mota bhai and his son. But I used my random Gmail address, so they don't raise another service request and cause issues for me.

So, maybe, this change could be due to that? I mentioned how we are getting so high ping compared to Airtel, so maybe, at least for sake of Speed Tests, they made the change.

I am sure they can. They probably just don't care about it, since they only care about less than 40ms ping to Mumbai.

Nah I'm from Chennai and they don't seem to care about the ping to Mumbai
My latency to Singapore is faster and stable!

Yeah, but I think they do want to keep ping around or less than 40ms to Mumbai. I heard some higher up saying that to the local engineer guy.

How is your ping to Mumbai BTW? For me, it is varying between 25ms to 70ms after recent changes. Airtel here gives around 25ms on average to Mumbai.
