Just tried loading some .au sites... Wow. Either won't load or a page takes up to a minute to load, including smh.com.au, theage.com.au and bom.gov.au.
Anyone seeing terrible times when accessing Australian content on the Vodafone cable network?

This is also working fine for me.
One thing to note is that I have been having a few issues lately that have been fixed by flushing the DNS cache on my machine (ipconfig /flushdns) so possibly there currently is a DNS issue with cable but not the normal issue.

Thanks, seems to have worked, ipconfig /flushdns, wish I had known this months ago.
Cheers

Even after flushing your DNS cache?
