Anyone else notice this? It's driving me mad, often search results just don't get displayed or takes a good 10 seconds or so even after refreshing.

Everything else is fine.. including google.com

DNS is 196.43.34.190

We experienced the same thing with Google 3 days ago, but then suddenly 8ta went down. We still do not have access to the Internet.
 
Don't MWEB host the Google.co.za cache servers? Keeping that in mind: 8ta = Telkom. Telkom not part of the peering agreement with MWEB. So if you tracert your route, my guess is you are routed out of the country and back for google.co.za? Whats your latency from a ping?
 
Interesting, I have experienced exactly the same thing sporadically over recent weeks.... Yet Google elsewhere (USA,UK, NL) are all fine -- it's only access through 8ta to Google ZA which is an issue!
