No issues here, TI Capped. First trace route had a similar result to yours (180ms), fine now.

Cloud flare has local servers, so shouldn't be a problem.

better to do a trace to telkom.co.za

:(:confused: since 9pm yesterday
 
Is anyone else experiencing crappy speeds? For the last 2 days my 4meg line have been looking more like a 1meg line......
 
Have not been online so far this week - work. But my Son is complaining of bad lag spikes ... , in game playing Dota2 or LoL.

Aaargghh. ADSL line is syncing, but it seems that it isn't authenticating my ISP account. Router status is stuck at connecting. Anyone else experiencing the same problem

Edit. Got through to the call centre. Area wide outage.

Is it just me or is the TiTracker broken?

I noticed a week ago that the usage bar stopped going up, and for the past two days I've been deliberately downloading some things in the day to make it move, but it still stays at the same spot. I'm not sure if I'm lucky or if all of a sudden it's going to bounce to where I think it should be, which is about 3 quarters of the way into the orange section instead only half way in the green where it is now.

EDIT: I tried checking userstats.adsl.saix.net but that doesn't seem to be working at all any more. Maybe I've gotten lucky and my account has disappeared into the limbo. :p

Mine is spiking like it is noboy's bussiness - been playing Guildwars 2, and I have "almost" DC'ed so many times it is not funny. You are running with the guild, and suddenly you are stuck and then the rest of the guild is 3/4 of the map away from you. :( :(
