Telkom international connectivity problems ongoing

Absolutely ridiculous. One or two days I can live with, but this...
 
My Telkom account has been fine the whole weekend (besides Friday for 30mins)
 
My internet is currently entirely unusable. TI/WA/OW/AH doesn't matter which ISP - the browsing is roughly equivalent to dial-up.

google.co.za has 200+ ping and some sites I can't ping at all. Phone Telkom tech support & those guys are pretty clueless (Step 1: Port reset doesn't fix it Step 2: eish I don't know) so I'm hoping my crap line is connected to this issue, else I'll have to fight another valiant but hopeless battle against the chops at Telkom ADSL tech support.

Been having having huge problems with download speeds. From last week Tuesday up until Saturday night it eventually mange to pick up to what aim paying for ( 10 meg :confused: :P ) but ja have been some really weird stuff going on.
 
Checked last night again. Couldn't even run the MyBB speedtest for international speeds. It pings 270+ms, but then you wait for the file to download... and wait... and wait. I gave up
 
Appart from latency issues I am not having much problems with SAIX at the moment. Downloads running at full speed. Gaming to the UK sucks a bit though. Hope they fix it soon.
