is anyone noticing that the forums are really slow on their internet? it isnt a "overall forum issue", but it seems to be affecting bell canada / comcast users. I feel like im on dialup again. (currently visiting toronto). it might be an problem with global crossing or one of the other connections though.

The first hop after you leave your router is terrible.

64.230.197.220 (64.230.197.220) 357.022 ms 357.740 ms 358.577 ms

I think it is your local connection to your ISP.

Edit: try unpludding your modem for 2 minutes. They apply power again. What for it to reconnect. Then try your speed again. I know I sound like the stupid phone support person; however, give it a try. :)

seems like its still slow after all the stuff ive done to it. i bet someone dug up, or broke one of the level3 connection cables by accident or something, because only sites with bandwidth from level3 are slow.
