Browsing through treacle again
[AOL] Me too [/AOL] 
It's been bad all evening - since around 1900 anyway and I just about managed to get this tracert
before it ground to a complete halt about 1/2 hour ago. I had no data transfer whatsoever to anywhere at all for around 10/15 mins followed by several minutes of sometimes it sort-of works sometimes it doesn't. It's working again at the mo but v...e...r...y.......s...l...o...w...l...y so am posting this real quick in case it all goes totally t*tsup again real soon !!
PS: Same gateway as you it would appear so maybe a reboot is called for
PPS: May or may not be related but eBay in particular has been virtually unusable every evening this week 1900-2300 (ish) as well but fine during the day and reasonably OK during the night. V.strange.

Erhm .... what exactly is going on in PN Towers at the mo ? This week seems to be following on from where last week left off so far as strange and unexplained problems are concerned
Evening performance is pretty dire. DNS frequently taking a dogs age to respond, a number of several minute periods of no data transfer whatsoever, generally slow and unresponsive browsing for perhaps the majority of the time (although by no means all of the time), intermittent problems accessing mail, ftp and PN home page, PN homepages apparently not reliably accessible from other networks either and now I find that webspace logfiles don't appear to have been generated overnight for yesterday as well
Is this a BW or internal routing style problem or is something somewhere perhaps about to go completely t*tsup fairly soon ?
Absolutely no changes here: same connection, same gateway and same settings (incl DNS) as I've been using for several weeks if not months now. No exchange, line or router problems either, everything is just fine at this end but the service is becoming next to useless at peak(ish) times. I'm on pte-ag2 and using 212.159.13.49/50 as usual for DNS.
Everything is mostly fine right now, as it was yesterday daytime, but I expect that come tonight it will be more than a bit of a challenge to do anything remotely useful again.

Have raised an internal problem so we can get some investigation underway (ref: 58439).
Not convinced it's a DNS issue especially in light of Steve's comments and some of the traceroute which seem to be timing out at the hop where the traffic management switches are. We did a quick health check on these yesterday and couldn't spot anything glaringly obvious but I guess we may have missed something.
There seems to be a few too many reports of problems here for something not to be wrong
Can you point me in the direction of that post Steve?
