The SEACOM network has been improved

SEACOM has already activated one of their routes across Egypt, improving latency by around 40ms

Curious to see if this actually affects the pings we get to the EU.

Good news after their early woes and teething problems. Look forward to seeing the effect.

You should already see a 40ms improvement on latency between SA and EU on providers who utilise SEACOM capacity. This was implemented some weeks ago.
