Last time I checked was 01:00 this morning and I could not browse any sites at all. They only site I could get working was iburst.
 
Evening all

Looks like the fault has been discovered.

If you are having trouble with a web site please SMS me that detail.

Networks sre standing by to assist with re-routing.

Upstream providers and gateway partners are looking into the issue and should have it resolved shortly.

Thanks guys for your patience.

Cheers

Shaun

Latency is definitely much higher than before.

Speed much poorer as well - normally high 900 Kbps

Shaun for March Iburst has been a bit unstable and unreliable and we need to nail this problem, as I haven't experienced this for the time I have been with Iburst, I really need a stable latency connection to do what I need to do. It seems this problem get rectified and then it breaks again. What has changed since March that causing all these problems?
