Hehe, I mean from earlier this morning when I tested, so the improvement I'm talking about is the 850mbps vs 770mbps. I don't know what's going on with that PPPoE dialup result.

Looks like an issue on a LINX port this morning (not sure how widespread it was as we're not direct LINX peers). Upstream have confirmed that it's cleared. Will keep an eye on it.

I am experiencing very slow streaming today. Trying to stream using either CinemaHD or Syncler with RD and I’m getting buffering on a 1gb line. I’m actually not very impressed as I have been experiencing degrading streaming performance for a while now.
Yeah mine also been up **** creek of late. Definitely more buffering going on.

Check RD CDN settings again, sometimes it defaults back to "automatic", change it back to cloudflare.
Still getting packet loss?
Yep, shows up on an iperf, but not on MTR. However even local speed tests to CPT are still struggling to hit 800mbps.
We're combing through the network carefully to see if there's anything that could be affecting TCP streams. Personally use Hulu and it's been fine, so it seems more related to certain sources (not blaming the source yet, as there's more than one, rather how we reach that source and they reach us). We made some minor adjustments to advertisements in JHB on Tuesday and again last night; have you noticed any improvements here?
The new transit routes which were promised to us in September are finally going live in JHB next week. The vendor had capacity constraints and held back on service delivery until this was resolved (better than overselling I reckon).
I thought your issues were resolved when we resolved that Asynchronous issue last week?
