either your network has collapsed or you are throttling half the country so the other half can work as our speed has gone completely

Excellent, playing 4 man Smite with about 220ms ping, which is the same as during the day.
First proper gaming session due to finishing my exams for this, having some relaxing time.

It is running very well, thank you. I'm not encountering any of the problems some of the testers are experiencing. I'm not playing online games or watching Netflix though. :)

Good to hear! It really does help us a lot to get an idea of where there are issues.

The latency to Europe is okay... But it looks like it is spiking at a few strange places. What do your speedtests look like at the moment?

Ok left WinMTR running while I had dinner these spikes are not promising.

Speedtests look good but the latency is still there in my MC instances and infact both my clients disconnected due to timeouts and commands are literally taking 10s to show on screen.

Thanks for the update!

Our Team has managed to replicate the latency spikes on our side, and we are now working on resolving the issue. Things should be back to normal shortly. ^E
 
YouTube struggles. P2P gets a 80kb/s and not the 200 kb/s I am used to.
Thought of updating my one system to Windows 10 as a test, but guess that will happen later on. Gives me time to do a bit more planning as well.
