Hello, Since a month or two, I’m getting very bad scores (due to i/o timeouts) on my NTP server (see [https://www.ntppool.org/scores/81.83.23.34](https://www.ntppool.org/scores/81.83.23.34)). I’ve also registered my NTP server to the beta pool, where it’s monitoring from different monitoring stations, but I also get many i/o timeouts (see [https://web.beta.grundclock.com/scores/81.83.23.34](https://web.beta.grundclock.com/scores/81.83.23.34)). When I traceroute from and to the monitoring station, I get the following results: > sascha@kyle:~/monitor$ curl [http://trace.ntppool.org/traceroute/81.83.23.34](http://trace.ntppool.org/traceroute/81.83.23.34) > Traceroute to 81.83.23.34 > 1 (139.178.64.41) AS54825 19.007 18.967 > 2 (147.75.98.104) AS54825 16.526 > 2 [0.xe-0-0-17.dsr2.ewr1.packet.net](http://0.xe-0-0-17.dsr2.ewr1.packet.net) (147.75.98.106) AS54825 72.081 > 3 (198.16.4.84) AS54825 0.383 > 3 [0.ae21.bbr2.ewr1.packet.net](http://0.ae21.bbr2.ewr1.packet.net) (198.16.4.86) AS54825 0.744 > 4 [0.et-0-0-0.bbr1.ewr2.packet.net](http://0.et-0-0-0.bbr1.ewr2.packet.net) (198.16.7.207) AS54825 0.810 0.793 > 5 (198.16.7.207) AS54825 1.274 > 5 [nyk-b2-link.telia.net](http://nyk-b2-link.telia.net) (62.115.175.182) AS54825 0.994 > 6 (62.115.118.115) AS1299 82.289 > 6 [nyk-b2-link.telia.net](http://nyk-b2-link.telia.net) (62.115.175.182) AS1299 1.180 > 7 [be-zav01a-rb1-ae-21-0.aorta.net](http://be-zav01a-rb1-ae-21-0.aorta.net) (213.46.162.6) AS6830 82.503 82.732 > 8 [be-zav01a-rb1-ae-21-0.aorta.net](http://be-zav01a-rb1-ae-21-0.aorta.net) (213.46.162.6) AS6830 \* 82.666 > 9 \* \* > 10 \* \* > 11 \* \* > 12 \* \* > 13 \* \* > 14 \* \* > 15 \* \* > 16 \* \* > 17 \* \* > 18 \* \* > 19 \* \* > 20 \* \* > 21 \* \* > 22 \* \* > 23 \* \* > 24 \* \* > 25 \* \* > 26 \* \* > 27 \* \* > 28 \* \* > 29 \* \* > 30 \* \* > sascha@kyle:~/monitor$ traceroute 139.178.64.42 > traceroute to 139.178.64.42 (139.178.64.42), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets > 1 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 0.342 ms 0.228 ms 0.163 ms > 2 \* \* \* > 3 \* \* \* > 4 dd5e0fa73.access.telenet.be (213.224.250.115) 9.420 ms 8.829 ms 9.266 ms > 5 dd5e0fa24.access.telenet.be (213.224.250.36) 13.131 ms 13.015 ms 11.731 ms > 6 [be-zav01a-rb1-ae-19-0.aorta.net](http://be-zav01a-rb1-ae-19-0.aorta.net) (213.46.162.1) 12.913 ms 9.127 ms 14.194 ms > 7 213.46.162.5 (213.46.162.5) 14.322 ms 14.050 ms 13.901 ms > 8 [adm-bb3-link.telia.net](http://adm-bb3-link.telia.net) (62.115.118.114) 95.103 ms [adm-bb4-link.telia.net](http://adm-bb4-link.telia.net) (62.115.118.118) 91.297 ms [adm-bb3-link.telia.net](http://adm-bb3-link.telia.net) (62.115.118.114) 94.957 ms > 9 [ldn-bb3-link.telia.net](http://ldn-bb3-link.telia.net) (213.155.136.98) 99.586 ms [ldn-bb3-link.telia.net](http://ldn-bb3-link.telia.net) (62.115.113.211) 100.233 ms 100.833 ms > 10 \* [nyk-bb4-link.telia.net](http://nyk-bb4-link.telia.net) (62.115.113.20) 100.021 ms 99.932 ms > 11 [nyk-b2-link.telia.net](http://nyk-b2-link.telia.net) (62.115.137.99) 99.888 ms 96.998 ms [nyk-b2-link.telia.net](http://nyk-b2-link.telia.net) (213.155.130.28) 93.010 ms > 12 [packethost-ic-345229-nyk-b2.c.telia.net](http://packethost-ic-345229-nyk-b2.c.telia.net) (62.115.175.183) 163.113 ms 163.192 ms 162.980 ms > 13 [0.et-11-1-0.bbr2.ewr1.packet.net](http://0.et-11-1-0.bbr2.ewr1.packet.net) (198.16.7.206) 92.559 ms 93.536 ms 93.389 ms > 14 [0.ae21.dsr1.ewr1.packet.net](http://0.ae21.dsr1.ewr1.packet.net) (198.16.4.87) 106.817 ms 117.765 ms 117.682 ms > 15 147.75.98.107 (147.75.98.107) 96.748 ms 119.175 ms 147.75.98.105 (147.75.98.105) 96.846 ms > 16 [monewr1.ntppool.net](http://monewr1.ntppool.net) (139.178.64.42) 95.812 ms 99.941 ms 99.974 ms What can I do about this?

Can you run a **mtr** to see if there is any packet loss? ---

Hmmm, looks like it starts with 213.46.162.5 which is Chello Broadband in BE? But Telia seems to also have issues on both sides on the atlantic… Same hops too as the ones you posted above, so someone is actively dropping UDP packets and/or UDP/123 specifically… ☹ ---

Thanks for your answer. Do you have any solution for this? Can I reroute the traffic via another way in my router (TP-Link Archer C7)? Do I maybe have to contact Chello Broadband/Telia? Or maybe @ask can investigate in this problem? Thanks in advance for helping me out. ---

I’d suggest contacting your ISP and send them details of the mtr output to show where the traffic is trying to go and the problems you are seeing ---

Same here, it stops at [packet.net](http://packet.net) If I run the Curl command everything is fine, but mtr tells me it’s wrong: mtr -u 139.178.64.42 -r Then look at [packet.net](http://packet.net), the loss is near there or I eat my shoes 🙂 I contacted packet-dot-net and they contact NTP to solve the problem. ---

Enter your server in the beta-ntppool, see what happens. [http://web.beta.grundclock.com/](http://web.beta.grundclock.com/) My “bad” server with minus scores almost got 20 at the beta server. This means the monitor can’t be trusted, if you happen to follow a path that drops UDP-packages then your blue-line goes bad. Nothing you can do except enter your server in the beta-pool and see if it’s better there, as that monitor is in Amsterdam and thus may follow a different path. Mine is good in Amsterdam but bad in Newark. See the difference in monitors, so it’s not on my side. ![Normal-server](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/ntppool/original/1X/7c6a213b48de75f1c61e523332a1bff04ced24e6.png) Then the Beta-server, very different, but also not good. ![beta](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/ntppool/original/1X/dc31262643ab3ec934331959fb9aedcf98b319c1.png) Greetings Bas. ---

Hi Bas, thanks for your answer. My servers are listed in the beta-pool (see the CSV-log @ [https://web.beta.grundclock.com/scores/81.83.23.34/log?limit=200&monitor=\*](https://web.beta.grundclock.com/scores/81.83.23.34/log?limit=200&monitor=*)). Unfortunately, the other monitoring servers at the beta-pool have also many timeouts to my NTP-server… ---

Same here, except it’s only Newark that is giving problems, Amsterdam and LA seem to be fine. [https://web.beta.grundclock.com/scores/77.109.90.72/log?limit=200&monitor=\*](https://web.beta.grundclock.com/scores/77.109.90.72/log?limit=200&monitor=*) Yet my score it minus again, just because Newark has time-outs. However, I did a trace on your UDP port 123 and it seems to be closed. Did you open port 123 for UDP via My Telenet? Greetings Bas. ---

Hi Bas, thanks for your answer. I have a modem-only from Telenet, so I have forwarded the port (both UTP & TCP) in my router and in the iptables-firewall on the NTP-Server. If I do different UDP port scans online, I can see that port 123 UDP is open. See [https://check-host.net/check-report/b3a7175k2a7](https://check-host.net/check-report/b3a7175k2a7) for details. Also see [https://suip.biz/?act=report&id=4828b8885be3bf9b49b0a3711019e168](https://suip.biz/?act=report&id=4828b8885be3bf9b49b0a3711019e168) for an NMAP-scan from suip.biz. ---

You only need to open UDP, not TCP. The NTP server and it’s monitors only use UDP. See how it goes. ---

Edited in my router forwarding config & in iptables @ my NTP-Server, still the same problem though… ---

UDP is a bit of a problem as the protocol has no return check. As such it’s hard to check if it’s there or not. ---

I’ve emailed Telenet Business a couple of days ago, I hope they will/can solve the problem… Thankyou for helping me and I will keep you updated. [Next page](https://community.ntppool.org/t/i-o-timeout-from-different-monitoring-stations/1442.md?page=2)
