Good to see it's not only Telecom NZ and Vodafone NZ having web site problems.

It's up for me, though it's loading slowly and the stylesheet isn't always loading.

I have seen the site loads once (without stylesheet) out of around ten attempts. Certainly struggling...
And I wanna see how much I have left of my cap to burn :-(

Certainly not loading for me at all, on TelstraClear cable.

Not things are clearer:

When isn't vodafone's website playing up! (Well, actually it's working for me right now! Go figure.)
It has often suffered timeouts and missing stylesheets.

Just got a major lag spike on WoW (600+ ms).

Local sites are OK but int'l connectivity seems munted.

re: intl traffic,

I agree, usually by splitting a DL into 5-8 parts I can get a constant 1200KB/s, but I only seem to be getting 400-480KB/s at the moment.

I'm pretty sick of TCL with their seemingly constant problems with their cable service, I'm seriously thinking of moving to snap some time soon.

Int'l connectivity seems to have stabilised now, and TCL's website is back on.

All services are running again.
Tonight's problem was nothing to do with the cable network, a server had issues (in Auckland I believe).
