This didn't affect auth sessions, only slow connections.
If you're unable to connect now, drop me a PM :)

Ohk I'm sorry. Connection is slow. 10meg line running at less than 1meg.

Thanks for clearing than up and sorry for wrong accusations

Looking good - YouTube back to normal. I'll probably play a bit of quake tomorrow night and see if the latency issue on hop 3-4 in CT durbanville has subsided.

Youtube seems fine but getting these latency spikes every minute or two like its on a timer when playing quake.

Would you be able to paste a ping here showing these spikes up in latency?

I just caught one. Here is what it looks like in my ping trace when it occurs:

Here's a tracert to the quake live server I am connecting to:
Tracing route to my.spikey.ninja [196.44.45.98]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

1 1 ms <1 ms <1 ms 192.168.0.1
2 * * * Request timed out.
3 13 ms 12 ms 12 ms cpt-rx2.ip.adsl.co.za [169.1.5.82]
4 26 ms 22 ms 25 ms cpt-net1.ip.adsl.co.za [169.1.5.128]
5 13 ms 13 ms 11 ms adept.ct1.napafrica.net [196.10.140.72]
6 57 ms 53 ms 57 ms v498.pe0.adc.adept.za.net [196.44.40.193]
7 16 ms 18 ms 14 ms g0-9.bb3.adc.adept.za.net [196.44.40.118]
8 34 ms 38 ms 43 ms my.spikey.ninja [196.44.45.98]

Trace complete.

The latency is primarily focused between that 3rd and 4th hop though I have seen pings to cpt-rx2.ip.adsl.co.za climb into the 30s randomly from time to time from low 12s. bras seems to be like a fortress always pinging relatively low to it 10-13ms.

These pings are ran in parallel btw.

Haha, we ended playing shop keeper for over an hour while the devices reset. I was horribly overcharged as well :)

Best to channel all the via AfriGenie, becuase I don't have too much background on this issue.

He is pretty religious about answering his PM's as soon as he gets into the office :)

The fact that I have waited for more than 24 hours proves this to be a lie!!! :p
