Hey guys, tryna find out if it's just me? Internet crawling at ~0.1Mbps since this morning. Have tried 3 different ISPs - all similar results.

20Mbps line:


I'm not too clued up on all the technicalities, but does this maybe indicate a problem between my router and the exchange?
Code:
Tracing route to google.co.za [216.58.223.3]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

  1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  192.168.0.1
  2     *        *        *     Request timed out.

Trace complete.
 
Check your router stats, could be that you are set to 64kbps download... I had that a few times before :/ also on 20mbps.
 
Mines also dead slow, on a 20Mbps line and only getting 0.4Mbps and that's when the speed test doesn't timeout.
My father working in Kirstenhof is also having the same problem.
