Location: North Shore, Auckland

 

Package: Home UFB 30/10

 

Problem: For the last couple of days, connectivity has degraded significantly to be point of being unusable. Here is what the current situation looks like to me:

 

- NZ Servers: No issue at all, stable performance

 

- US West Coast: Sometimes erratic, but I could generally get 10-15 Mbps throughput and decent ping (~150ms) during non-peak hours.

 

- Australia: Normal ping (<30ms) within VFAU's network but download speed is throttled to about 3 MBps whereas upload speed appears to be uncapped. Once outside their own network, speed deteriorates to about 1 Mbps down and 3 Mbps up with very high lantency (150ms+ for hosts in Sydney).

 

- Asia: Pure horror show. Throughput to various providers with good interconnection at HKIX, SGIX or JPIX has been consistently below 1 Mbps with high packet loss and lantency spikes up to 400ms as long as they transit through Australia.

 

Anyone experiencing the same issue?

Seems it might be coming back via an interconnect in the States.

There could be many reasons for this, one of which is traffic is being scrubbed of DDoS attacks. This may explain the poor performance to international destinations.
