im on linux debian, using the openvpn configs, following the linux connection guide.

My network is all over the place, most of the time its really quick but every hour or so it starts to get gradually slower until it completly drops. then it gets back up and speeds back up to normal again.

And somtimes, i try to connect and it just doesent work. it looksa as if it works, but i cant load any websites or connect to anything.

Not sure if I am going through the same as you... still trying to get on... was ok earlier...

Is this still an issue for you guys? Is this behavior isolated to a particular node, or does it appear to be more widespread?

The first time, 2 nights ago was my fault. I had BOTH Iceland DNS addresses in my DNS entry points. So naturally, when Iceland went down, everything went down for me! So I swapped the addresses around.

The second time, last night. During the day was normal, went to connect in the evening and no dice. I had to swap DNS addresses around again, which solved the issue.

PS: one of the exit nodes does not resolve in Wireshark (swap from IP to Hostname <--- why the hell am I pointing THIS out to you guys... lol you know what resolve means... ugh). For the life of me, I cannot remember which one it was.

I will see how it goes tonight. Mind you, (I include custom DNS entries in both Router settings and Network Adapter settings...)

PPS: net has been crap in general for a week or so, due to Netflix opening up business on our shores. Lotsa' ISPs are shitting bricks due to congestion. That might've caused a ripple effect when it comes to gaining net access. Will keep an eye on it.
