I just got another of them emails. The graph shows a more or less gradually detoriating offset. While my GPS-18 doesn't have stellar reception due to its placement it is not working THAT bad... Only thing I see is the high jitter (100+ ms) for external clocks; this is caused by the (partially!) used ADSL line (torrents). The firewall labels the NTP traffic as low latency etc. Would a wondershaper have any extra benefit? _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
