...2-3 minutes to load the Forum page, and after clicking a Thread title it took about 2 minutes for this thread page to appear - then after clicking "reply" about 45 seconds for the reply page to load.

Well, this time my CPU was idle. I did the speed test to the isp and I think 1.13kbps per second over 7 minutes was a sure indicator that my ISP is having issues. I've opened a ticket with them. Tried calling, got a little bit of a run around.

wow 40 minutes of jetlag I was lost for a bit!

S.L.O.W. for the past hour or so I've tried. @ 3:45 est it picked up the pace. Somethings 'fixed'

I know my server is running at idle. I'm wondering if the whole internet is slow, or if it's just my ISP. I question the whole internet cause of the traceroute I ran:

I Use dls.net, but you can see the elongated times are out side of the dls.net hops too.

I surfed other places flawlessly, went all over the place waiting for my signature to update, wasnt the whole internet.
