Morning. Quick update here - we picked up on major route issues throughout Europe yesterday, particularly on West to East routes originating in London heading through Dubai to Asia. North to South routes from London via West Africa seem to have also been affected, which saw traffic being re-routed along East Africa (which is always meh and induces terrible latency). We did try to make some adjustments on our end across our different providers, but it seems the EU issue was over-powering, with packet loss cropping up in the next hop from London throughout. I've requested an RFO from our vendors to ensure they're pushing for resolutions in this regardBack to 'normal' now

It's very easy to do, and cable is cheap. Do you need to run through the ceiling?

Visit our looking glass at lg.as328137.net and use the Traceroute tool - look at the last result (it will give you 5 as it runs the test). You can pick between Joburg, Durban and Cape Town Regions.

From which region are you testing? What's odd about the results?
No idea what the region was, I tested via mobile. They've introduced some sort of akami routing after some routes in telia, I never used to be the case and the latency jumps by close to 200 ms.
Using @Tinuva's SmokePing: https://netmon.heaven.za.net/smokeping/smokeping.cgi?target=GAME-SERVERS.Blizzard-EU2
You can see some funky things have happened.
Yep's that exactly what my PRTG it showing, and blizzard are so useless so them rectifying it is next to impossible.
Anyone else's international die? I'm having random throughput issues, cannot access origin, all traceroutes and pings resolve locally instead of internationally, twitch is unusable (front page doesn't load).
