fine.
Each ISP is unique on what servers your requests are sent. When you connect to anything on the internet your request is sent to multiple destinations until it reaches what your going for. An example would be to open a "cmd" window and type "tracert pnwmas.org". It shows the hopes between servers and how long it takes. Sounds like most everyone having issues is using Comcast or a sister company (on same servers). It could be a DNS issue amoung a few ISPs. Im sure someone else can explain this better... i just know these things, just not good at explaining them. I ran game servers for years and delt with these issues first hand many times.
