Having some odd problems here - I can't access https://imgur.com/ but I can access other international sites fine. On vumatel aerial in morningside, johannesburg - not sure what is up. There are some other sites with similar issues.
I tried getting some files from https://mirror.chpc.utah.edu/...
Thanks for all the details and the fix. It has been fine since I switched back about 3 hours ago:

It was better last night but the problem is back again now and it actually seems allot worse tonight (Vumatel Aerial in Morningside, Johannesburg):
$ traceroute 8.8.8.8

Terrible packet loss again after 1st hop with Vumatel aerial in Morningside:

It has been intermittent for me the whole day but seems worse now that earlier today. When it is up it is perfect - but then it gets packet loss for about a minute or so at a time.
When there is no packet loss the speed is what I expect it to be:
$ speedtest-cli --share --server 6591...
I'm getting insane packet loss at the moment with vumatel aerial:
