I am in Amanzimtoti and I have found my latency has doubled from 250-350ms to 500-600ms in just 4 months dont know y its according to my ISP and Saix its withing the "norm" to have latency like that but am getting the same as a shaped account so y pay so much extra for an unshaped for nothing
 
According to Telscum the Sat3 cable is so overloaded that its causing these problems for us and there is nothing they can do about it also getting that same message from IS and Saix. I tried everything basically and got nowhere we will just have to wait this out and accept it
 
Typical poor planning from the lovely South Africa, they were probably bargaining on SEACOM and it blew up in there itty bitty faces.

Well how come its overloaded now, it was not like this 2 weeks ago..... I cant accept this cause I cant do anything or even play........

One question why is Verizon (MTN Business) not effected?
 
I have spoken to my ISP and Telkom which in turn spoke to SAIX and IS and thats the reason I was given and told there is nothing they can do about it (all parties). Quote "The Sat3 cable is overloaded and is causing our high latency" I for 1 dont accept this but there is nothing anyone can do if I again ask them to check into it SAIX - IS just throws out my complaint and says there is nothing wrong with my line and thats the "norm" to get such high latency's and I must accept it because other ppl are getting way higher. Nothing I can do futher have complained about it 5 times now and after the 3 complaint they just threw it out

Saix was lagging again last night, so i just switched to verizon and i had 280-340
 
I am with axxess and have also had my latency go from 300-350 to 750-900 in the last 2 weeks. I have been told it is a saix problem, and no-one seems to have a clue of how to fix this. i am from PE. last night we could not even run a few ppl through heroics.
i am a bit peed off atm.
 
Who knows what the problems are just that its been going on for 4 months and no 1 can give us an anwer to y
 
The guy at axxess told me a "node" was down and saix is working on it. I have no idea what he is talking about, i just know my latency sucs big time, and it was fine till 2 weeks ago.
I play a druid healer in a casual guild (Fortunately) otherwise i would have been kicked by now. We are 10/14 in uldar and it is a bitch to heal with bad latency.
