I don't use Windscribe, so I'm not sure what options you have for the free version. Is it the servers here that don't have a star next to them on the Windscribe website's Status page?

If so, try Turkey, Switzerland, Netherlands or Norway.

You say "none worked, despite using some bandwidth" means what exactly? Speedest showing sufficient up/down speeds but when browsing websites not loading?

i have 10GB free quota for Windscribe

so despite connecting non stop for the game (didn't manage to enter and got an connection error) ... my quota was reduced and became 9.98GB

well, that is expected.

we're metered by raw data up and down.
regardless what protocol and we actually use.


just like water meter.
it does not matter whether it's sirap, pepsi, teh, or just plain water that flows through.

Just added ProtonVPN Free vpn server to my smokeping. ProtonVPN Free Server Smokeping
Maybe u can try Protonvpn.

Hi, may I know connection to which server or website? I wanna to check if my connection also get worse.

How's the "weather" today?

No chance of optical light shining through the internet cloud?

*looks outside*

Evil TM Kaiju terrorizing our connections. Save us, Oltromen!!

Seriously, still terrible. SG unusable for me (VPN using m247 server). Half the time dropping packets. When no packet loss, they throttle download speeds.

[vomit blood emoji]

Lol i guess the spike start again

Edit:sorry,just now think wrongly.
Problem just started on 1PM

Can someone give me something to test? Cause I don't have any issue like slow surfing especially Facebook, Lowyat forum, Reddit, Twitch, Twitter.

But download speeds heavily throttled

mine looks fine

Hmmm.... maybe it was my IP prefix.
Tried disconnecting/reconnecting on router. Now on 210.187.xxx.xxx (previously on 115.135.xxx.xxx). Seems to be better now.
Means past couple of days I was on badly throttled IP pool?



Will continue to monitor. Night time peak hours still dunno how.

Thanks, chaps.

I noticed some of the IPs i can browse faster without lags. Probably TM only reroute certain IPs. Try your luck.

Yea i can confirm this 210 are the least laggy. But still kinda but tonight slightly better

to anyone still having latency or connectivity issue to HKG/JP/US West

pls provide MTR or pingplotter result and attach in here.

i will submit feedback to TM

Paid for Mullvad for the sake of playing Granblue Fantasy smoothly. Tried Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, the UK. Seems like Australia gives the best results, but even that's nothing to shout about. The game goes through menus and the loading times have been insufferable. I read someone used a VPN that had a Cambodia node and they were doing fine, but Mullvad's mostly European. Maybe I should have gone with ProtonVPN or ExpressVPN.

Thank you, sir.
Sent you a PM with some MTR output.
