Grooveshark

Recently my Grooveshark experience has been terrible. Streaming any song is unbearable. It helps to have some background noise on my headphones when doing work late at night.

Is there anything I can do to help the situation? The rest of my internet experience is perfect.

edit: 4mbps account.

http://live.twit.tv video streaming not working, slow/stuttering.

Never have problems before with 400Kbps stream on my 4Mib uncapped at 00h00.

* speedtest.net international tests > 3.3 Mib atm.

Actually, crap would be a major understatement. International is nearly non-existant.
 
Good morning everyone,

Our SAT-3 link went down early this morning due to an undersea cable failure near the UK.
This will unfortunately impact on our international capacity today as both our CPT and JHB customers will be routed via SEACOM.

This means that you will experience some degradation of international speeds and Peer to Peer traffic will be shaped back accordingly.

We will update you as soon as we have an indication of when SAT-3 service will be restored.

Kind Regards

Having problems streaming via Justin.tv, loading speedtest.net, also having delays loading Facebook (consider this bad). Not too bad otherwise. Can it be that bad on Seacom that we rely that much on the SAT3 link though?

Got about 8 hours use out of a my capped Telkom Internet account last night after the problems started. Was bliss. Can't wait to have backup next month. Note to self to save a bit for end month. ;)
 
I got a SMS this morning saying that the Exchange issue I was having at the Barrack Street exchange was 'fixed' but then of cause, this happens.
What a joke.

Hey, it's been said before "you get what you pay for" :(

Hi Ono'rach, it should affect gaming; however I cannot establish how much it will be affected this evening.
