SAIX problem result in connectivity issues

As usual... I must just accept this?
SAIX can go p*** off, I want internet this weekend.
 
It affected other ISP's more than SAIX. My Neotel fibre fell over badly when it was happening.
 
My multiplayer games have become unplayable with this kind of service .... Hope they sort it out soon!
 
Is this issue resolved now? Unable to connect to PSN network and international ping has HUGE packet loss.

They claim pretty much everything is fixed:

Looks like that's the big one. Was a pretty crazy downtime. Could only ping the local ESR (from home and office), regardless of what ISP I was dialing up on. Plus degraded speeds and irresponsive DNS. Great to see they fixed it pretty efficiently :]
