Hi,

Is it just me or has the Internet come to a grinding halt - I'm getting no more than 2kB/sec on my 4MB line :(

Mine is also slow. With Axxess. I also can't get to some sites at all like Facebook and podtrac.com. Weird. Could this gave anything to do with the fibre cables that were cut up north?
 
Yup, something weird happened like 15 minutes to an hour ago. Just got really worse now. Cant access many sites.
 
Damn it. If it is guys hitting their caps then there is no way that they can offer uncapped because the network would be this clogged permanently...
 
Not that I have found much useful info here in the past (http://www.noticeboard.saix.net/), but maybe this is related?
