I have a server hosted at the Beauharnois "BHS" datacenter, and I'm noticing some slow download speeds on my rCable connection. I currently have the 100/10 connection from Start.
The test files for the datacenter are hosted here:
http://bhs.proof.ovh.net/files/
I only get about 800-900 KB/sec from those test files, which matches the speeds I'm getting from the server. On the server, I've tested downloading other test files to make sure it wasn't on that side.
I've tested various test files using wget:
- Electronic Box's test file: http://lg.ebox.ca/25MB.test
- Digital Ocean's test file: http://speedtest-tor1.digitalocean.com/100mb.test
- OVH's BHS test file: http://bhs.proof.ovh.net/files/100Mio.dat
On remote server using wget:
Electronic Box's test file averaged 11.2 MB/sec.
Digital Ocean's test file averaged 11.1 MB/sec.
OVH's test file averaged 11.2 MB/sec (to be expected)
On my home connection using wget:
Electronic Box's test file averaged 9.91 MB/sec.
Digital Ocean's test file averaged 10.1 MB/sec.
OVH's test file averaged 950 KB/sec
Here's the trace route from me to the OVH BVS test server:

It appears that there are some peering issues between me and the OVH Quebec datacenter. Is it possible for someone at Start to look into it? It would be interesting to see if anyone else is also seeing the slow speeds from that datacenter.
