My line speed has been upgraded, so maybe that was the reason for the poor performance lately. I surely hope so.
It's possible if you're line is not really coping with the higher speeds (due to cable quality or distance from the exchange). Have you done any testing? Maybe download our network test app and run it so we can see the results

It feels much better so far though, still above 30ms but at least no hop in the 200 and 300ms range.
I'm in Mac, can't use the test app.

Your second hop should never really be above 30ms. Definitely concerning there
I see, well, I will keep on checking and see if it changes.
@AfriMan
I stay in Gauteng.
My question to you?
Why when using tracert the IP addresse go due Halfway to Capetown and then back to Gauteng. (Dauglas comes to mind.)
This is a long way to the south then back to the north.
So latency becomes a issue.

Never mind the 2nd hop, something is wrong from the first, which should indicate a problem with your router

Why do you think that? I could possibly try with a different adsl modem.
Are you testing over wireless or LAN cable. If it's cable then the results should usually be sub 1ms if there are no other services running like downloads
I answered on another thread, but please post that trace so I can see what you actually mean here

No, I'm testing over wifi
Hmm... could you try a LAN cable, but I doubt it would make thhhaaatt much of a difference
Also - do you have POTS filters on all your phone lines/alarms?PurSpyk!!

My Speeds seems fine:
CPT to CPT
CPT to JHB
CPT to International - New York
CPT to International - London
International is a bit slower, but still operates fine.
