SAIX international crawling

[mancombseepgood]

Anyone else having trouble with a SAIX account today? Funny thing is that using cache.saix.net is fine - it's without proxy that it crawls.

Yesterday was like this too for me.

Why do you use SAIX ?

Answer : To slow the internet down to a manageble speed.

I use WA prepaid and cant get international or to my server on the Verizon network

slower than slow, can't access any international sites, they just all hang.

I just took 25min to downlad a 45KB file on a 4 Meg line.
Saix is effectivly dead even local is slow.

Local and int sucks, router is losing sync at times, it really sucks

 

[hawker]

I go through SAIX...no problems here, although it is a little slow...

Yeah, it's buggered ...if you can, just use a proxy as the OP mentioned.

I'm using: 196.25.253.13:8080 and it sorts it out.
