Come to think of it, this could be a possibility given the way tmnut treats the home users in the past. No wonder US links were suddenly superbly slow after the holidays. Can't even download from rapidshyt since it can dc less than 300KB, with the long cooldown timer in between regardless of whether you could actually download anything in the first place.

In the meantime, internet connections in the UAE are working largely as normal, with internet providers redirecting traffic on lines through Asia and the US. Some download-intensive services, like video streaming and online gaming, have been temporarily blocked to ensure basic internet services remain available.

WTH... since when does online gaming is download intensive?

i think my connection still crazy.. I'm able to RS download speed up to 140KBps but my MU download is like 1KBps and most of the time connection timeout after few hundred KB download..
guess have to wait for few more days for things to be bck to normal.
