Did Datek slow down about 2:15 or is it me? -Sailor

I noticed some problems. I believe it was network problems with their ISP IconNet through which most but not all of their servers are accessed. TRACERT demonstrated some problems there.

I wish they would put more of their servers on MCI which some of their servers use. MCI is much more reliable as a network provider.

I noticed a severe degradation of service in the afternoon as well. I could get the servers to respond but no data came down. It was flakey but at least 50% of the requests for data were never completed or only partially completed.
