Also had crazy ping this morning on international but my up/down speeds weren’t so bad considering I’m on a 20/2 line. View attachment 505981
My problem started on Wednesday, speeds just went down on SADV backbone, their service is pathetic, my emails went unanswered.I sent in cancellation, no one came back to me. I signed up with them last year, all was good "honeymoon" phase and suddenly they just don't even answer e-mails sent to support. Its been a week now.
Got an sms saying that there are some speed issues on the Vumatel network (if you're on it).
Its a bit here and there w.r.t speeds, two speedtest I did to Helsinki on 2 ISPs on a 20/20 line resulted in 20Mbs and 5Mbs respectively. So it seems its either intermittent on our side, or traffic routing is screwy somewhere.

Is anyone having issues with International this weekend? I've been with Rocketnet for 3 months and everything has been great but this weekend for the first time I've struggled to stream on Twitch and other international streaming services. I did speedtests for local and international, local is fine but international is terrible.
