This is the problem I have with AH. Stream perfectly all day streaming Twitch at source but now I can't even stream at high.
We need consistency especially when we are playing for unshaped.
100mb fibre: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4837385865
However twitch is lucky to see 4mb throughput right now.

Are you seeing poor performance on all Twitch streams? How is Youtube looking?

Anyone here able to log into Dota 2 and check the Frankfurt Major match, curious to see what your ping is ?... Mind is just under 400ms
:::EDIT:::
Dota 2 is now a slideshow for me ... can't even watch that ... sigh

I love the new network - but since the weekend, I cannot seem to get any speed out of Steam.
I've been downloading a 4.4 GB game from Steam for the last 26 hours and it is still not complete
My speedtest results : http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/4838624134
I am on 4mb Uncapped - I got 3Mb/s down but Steam insists on being between 20 and 40Kb/s all the time - this started about Friday night / Saturday
I am connecting to the Johannesburg Steam server (Cape Town did the same) and I live in Blairgowrie. All other downloads and services are at full speed.... anyone else have this problem?

Were you watching that in-game or via Twitch?

In game
Afrihost is down again for me
That's horrible. I'm not aware of any general auth issues last night, my connection definitely didn't seem to go down.
Can you drop me a PM so I can check your account?
A couple of people here in the office were also watching the same match in-game and report that it was streaming well. This would also be in the North.
Were general stats poor on your connection?

No, that is the strange thing. Everything was running great except Dota and Twitch.
Even YT stopped acting up and 1080p wasn't an issue
We're definitely seeing better performance overall and this is improving day by day as we implement better measures and policies to make the network more efficient.
Always best to judge from your own experience.
Can you keep an eye on this and report if you see this happening again? We'll need to test with you.
Are you running this non-standard, like custom DNS or anything like that?
