Which DNS servers are you using at the moment?

Any reason why DNS would make a difference? Because DNS just resolves host names, its got nothing to do with the content of a webpage.

So if the website is loading but is slow its not a DNS problem.

If you use different DNS you could see Facebook loading from a different geographical region instead of from the local servers. I've seen Facebook resolve from the Australia servers before with custom DNS in place.

Hi Afrigenie. Its like the other users said. It only happens between 19:00 and 22:00. It is actually so prevalent and obvious that my non-tech wife picked it up first because her pinterest and facebook is not usable.

Im currently using the borderless DNS details.
 
Placed the order for my ADSL line at 9:48 this morning, according to Telkom Afrihost took ownership of the line at 10:04, can you say quick out the blocks and good service? Though I see up and down stream on my router the internet is not working yet so I guess the transfer process is not quite completed yet, but still couple of hours promised by Afrihost vs 7 days promised by Telkom, so happy.

Thanks, money has been deducted now and I got a email that the transfer has been completed, so at least I know there's progress.

Yup! Looks like there is progress being made! Are you able to see if there is any throughput on your connection yet?
