Extra hops can be seen in Usindh traceroute (hop 6 and 7). For both of the nodes, it takes 36.105 ~ 36.4 ms to reach the hop khi77.pie.net.pk, however, as the hops are increased for accessing usindh , an increased RTT of 0.9 ms is observed. This is a small difference in RTT for the two nodes which is added due to two extra hops and it supports the results shown above in graphs.
It is observed that a bimodal pattern is seen in min RTT, that is for Pern POP min RTT was 35.87 ms till 6th of june and then it increased to 36.16 ms. Similar is the case for non PoP usindh node. However when we compared the traceroutes on 5th June and 8th June, it was found that there weren't any additional hops. The increase in min RTT was due to the hops of rwp44.pie.net.pk and khi77.pie.net.pk showing increased RTT. See below the traceroute results for 5th June from Pern PoP Islamabad to Pern PoP Jamshoro

And the traceroute results on 8th June were as below:

A slight increase in RTT is seen for the two above mentioned hops. So far we are unable to find out the reason for this increase in RTT for these two hops. A similar increase in RTT is seen for the same two hops for the non PoP node (pinger.usindh.edu.pk) as well.

As the results of jamshoro and university of sindh do not go with the theoretical analysis, we tried to find out the performance of other PoPs as compared to one other pern node in the same city.
