Just wondering how the interweb is going for people ? It just seems slow, today and yesterday. Yep the weekend, coincidence...I think not.

 

Anyway lots of things are slow, pages are slow, I can watch images slowly load, but checking speed seems fine - 500mbps plus. I'm on MyRepublic (for now), use the Cloudflare 1.1.1.3 DNS plus a certain other DNS service. Ta.

i thought the same thing , sites that were instant were taking a few seconds to load, it seems to be getting better now.

Guess I'll be 2Degrees soon as well. Hopefully it fixes itself, but so many variables I suppose.

Thanks, bit slower here but still decent. Weird how I try the Speedtest app and it says I'm 450 miles away from Auckland when I'm in Whakatane though. But my routers test says, as mentioned 700ish500ish.

In Chch, but Speedtest puts me 3 miles from Wellington?

 

Bunnings usually loads my local store as Wellington, but saying Mt Maunganui today and Harvey says Tauranga.

I’ve noticed it on One last couple days. Wellington. Pages not loading and streaming freezes.

I've been feeling similar, speed test etc all work fine, websites just taking that extra second or two to load compared to normal though

If the certain other dns services are what I think then they seem to have been having issues over the weekend. We've had a lot of page not found issues that went away when turning that off.
