Yeah, it seems to have fixed itself over night, steam was going at ~90KB/s from 12->5am so what ever it was seems fixed last night.

Apologies, we are experiencing issues with the local IP transit partner in Cape Town.

Sites routed via Cape Town, e.g. Google were also giving a problem (so these are now being routed via London)

WoW is beyond raidable tonight, I get instant 1 second lag in raids tonight, what is going on?

I have no problems on my Wimax.
