They dropped liquid on all routes. Telkom transit to EU via Level 3 it seems.

Well Liquid telecoms is the target so makes sense for Afrihost to move transit providers because it's not their IP ranges being targeted. Instantly resolves the issues. If like in the cool ideas case it's your IP ranges being targeted then changing transit providers won't fix anything.

last night yes, now, who knows, they've been dropped.

Yes it's Telkom Transit to HE I believe which uses Level 3 and Cogent co. Lower latency to EU but probably worse to Asia

Pretty please Afrihost keep the current routes with Telkom.....
@luckystrike
Latency to EU dropped significantly.
Before with Liquid Telecoms
Now with Telkom/HE

can you check wa and axxess? here wondering if it's echo that changed or ah that dropped echo?

Probably Echo because Afrihost gets their capacity from them but I get a feeling that EchoSP is actually Afrihost. That said here is trace of Webafrica.

WA also changed.
However, if you check inbound through something like https://eu-looking-glass.battle.net you will notice the return traffic is still through Liquid. Only outbound traffic changed this morning.

Liquid is horrible for all blizzard games, their inbound routing prefers Amsterdam instead of london, so adds extra latency not needed. I did escalate this but they weren't interested or could not fix it.

@AfriMan I am still no closer to a reason as to why my latency and speeds are all over the place....
In a perfect world I would have been able to cancel my VDSL line with Telkom before the 25th and not have to double pay for internet.
Please can you let me know how long I need to wait to get an answer? I know I am one out of many clients, but any sort of indication would be great.

Anyone know how to disable IPv6 on these d-link DIR-825 routers (got a russian RevR1 one)? Trying to help my uncle remotely; his DVR keeps getting an IPv6 IP and not an IPv4 and I don't want to have to drive over there to give it a fixed ip..
Hey Cavill
Sounds like we will need to log a fault with you with the provider. Please PM me so we can get this rolling
