Well, first of all, what TM Said is kinda BULL CRAP. There is a broken international link. But it affected only KL,PJ,USJ, Subang, Cyberjaya.

It affected the bulk of the users : SERVER FARMS.

It does not affect those not in the Lembah Klang Area.
It does little effect to Johor Baru (Since they piggy back to SINGTEL)
Little Lag is felt with PENANG and KEDAH (Since we kinda leech it from INTEL)

It affects BLOGSPOT!!

So, what steps to do?
Do a DNS CACHE FLUSH (ipconfig /flushdns )
Reset your routers. Linksys WAG54G is preferred as CISCO talks to the routers for best routes.
Reset yr PC.

Still no connection:?
Modify your proxy servers to the australian one
I suggest 132.10 port 3128

I have others..but you can test yr connection if it’s error …

Do a ping to SINGTEL ( DNSSEC1.SINGNET.COM.SG ) and STARHUB ( secdns.cyberway.com.sg /203.116.1.78 ) and see if you can get a 350ms hop.

If you do..then UR good to go..

Book mark this if you need more help.

Off record..someone working at JKR struck a fiber which they thought it was a waterpipe! Sources from friends up in TM.
