<p>We've been chasing AT&T on streaming upload failures on a Business Fiber setup for about 6 weeks now. </p>
<p>We've been streaming Sunday Morning services to Youtube for years on Comcast. </p>
<p>Switched to AT&T in March. And........ increasingly were having Youtube abort the stream. </p>
<p>We were sending 60fps video, which amounted to about 6mbps; this is on a 20mbps Fiber connection. </p>
<p>We dropped that to 30fps video, which is about 3.5mbps. </p>
<p>I ran the Speedtest CLI every 5 minutes from a script for several 24 hour periods, and found Max Upload Latency all over the highway, from 5ms to 528ms. (BTW, we understand the upload SLA to be 37ms) </p>
<p>Granted, the Speedtest test tries to shove 20mbps upload; whereas we are trying to get consistent 3.5mbps. this is to an AT&T Speedtest host in Atlanta. </p>
<p>I'm getting close to nowhere arguing with AT&T. I recently took the church completely offline, disconnected our Unifi router, connected directly to the AT&T Calex box, ran the same tests, had roughly the same results. </p>
<p>AT&T level 2 support is asking ME to tell THEM where in the hops from us to THEM that THEY are bottlenecked. Kinda hard, since MTR or TraceRoute gets 2 hops in, and then it's just stars with no data. 'cause their equipment isn't replying to me. </p>
<p>Anyone have ideas, either on troubleshooting, or finding anyone within AT&T that actually knows anything about testing their own equipment? I was wondering about iPerf3, if they had a server for it. It would be better to test a realistic 4mbps upload. </p>
<p>Anyone know the process to file a formal request for a failed SLA credit with AT&T? The minimal docs I have apparently are no longer correct? </p>
<p>regards, </p>
