Large ISP's are always in the problematic paths simply due to being so big. This weekend was Memorial weekend and the kids are all out of school. Problems with the Internet *always* happen this time of year. Always.
I rarely have internet problems. Basically a rock steady connection, as I work xtra hard to make sure my computer is "streamlined" s AH is the main thing it is used for (outside basid spreadsheet, office type stuff for work).
The one thing I can't stand about Savis, is when I get booted from AH (1-2 times a month) OR when I am having a particular poor aim night (I know I am hitting the planes, or should be, but it's just not happening) and I ping the MA, I see that Savis is changing my route every 3 seconds or so.
A route change every 2-3 seconds? (sigh)
how many cases of scotch will it take to get HTC to change the MA server to Dallas instead of St. Louis??? From where I sit, I would hit the AH servers in 3-4 hops max. (drool)
