I am connecting from Cape Town CBD and it seems like international sites are extremely slow or down. Local sites are fine though.

Anyone else have this problem?
 
Yes I was just about to post, WTF is going on?

BTW: You guys IS or SAIX? SAIX here..
 
Yes this is a SAIX problem my IS account works fine
 
Saix stuffed me thinks. Dead international except a few sites. Nothing on their notice board so far. European sites work..

IS here, Durban. Slower than Randy from My Name is Earl.. no wait, slower than that.

Then again, when is IS reliable?
 
Same here in Bloemfontein. I cant even authenticate with the EA Master Server to play some BF 2142 !!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
Must be something on the SAIX network, obviously :p . My IS local is flying....
 
It is weird -- all my clients' sites (hosted in the US) are working fine as usual, but google and yahoo are down, even microsoft is very slow.
 
East London here and int is dead as dead can be.

Thought maybe I'd been capped but connected with another uncapped SAIX account and same thing.
 
If there is a problem with SAIX intl, can it be possible for the "west" side or the "east" side to skip this? Only one cable or what?
