I'm on cable broadband in Petone.
Sometime ago I noticed a decrease in speeds for Facebook - sometimes the page would load, others not at all (doing a refresh seemed to load it). Things appear to stall loading - I click on the messages icon and I'm sitting around waiting for the messages to appear. After about a minute I close the browser and try again.
This is an on and off issue, and has been noticed by all the devices used in the house - the PC connected directly to the router, and the laptop and iPad2 connected wireless. I work with Facebook in IE; however the users on the desktop use Firefox (up-to-date version at the time).
The recommended DNS servers are in use. Before (about 10 mins ago) the Facebook page wouldn't load, so I did a few tracert's, ~30 seconds between each one. The results:

I rang TelstraClear around 3.30pm today, and was told because the speed test done on their end was fine to call TP-Link and check router firewall settings. Having done that, TP-Link say things are as they should.
