And the clock strikes 5pm, boop, its back to 400ish..
 
Anyone wanna check on a saix shaped account what your latency is like? cause mine seems to go pear shaped during the day i notice.. like between 900-1300ms 9am-5pm :(
 
may i suggest using tracert. This way youll be able to see exactly where the problem is, its likely international peering at saix, theyre torrenting too much p0rn.
 
it is.. the traces when i have normalish 400ms and the day time 1kms pings are the same except the 500-750ms lag before it hops into the international..
