Rocketnet - feedback?

Thank you for your responses. It is much clearer now.
 
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.

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. IMG_2403.JPG

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.

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.

I have been communicating with Michael Ruddy, who decided no longer to address my issue. SADV are telling me that I must deal with you guys. I will PM you my e-mail address.

Perfect I will sort this out for you
 
RocketNet speeds tested from my home account in Dainfern over an Ethernet cable directly plugged into the ONT, my MacBook Pro dialled up the PPPoE connection

So after 5 months on RocketNet, the only thing I can be really critical about is PlayStation Network (PSN).

Downloads I can walk away from and don’t really care how long they take...but being unable to watch game videos (video overview before you purchase a game off PSN) is pretty disappointing on a 100/100 line.

I’m not sure if this is a RocketNet issue or just Vumatel / SA fibre sucking at international. It’s been like this pretty much from the beginning. Every other service is stellar, including Steam downloads.
