Yeah, back again today also. Facing the issue at the moment. Seems like it happens daily around this time now, just depends if it gets fixed quick enough or takes time to be back to normal.
Quite annoying i'd say.

@Shivam255 It depends on what time u're checkin, i'm online basically 24x7 lol. The issue today was back to normal within 10 min or so.

Edit 2: Down again for me since last half an hour now. Anyone reading this around the time of me posting can check for themselves by going on either of these websites: twitch.tv, reddit.com, speedtest.net and github (though github is accessible but it's very slow and sometimes doesn't even load all elements of the webpage)

Edit 3: And, tada! After 3 hrs it's fine again.

Not working for me, it was working for a while after 2 hours from the start of the issue, but since last 6 hrs or so it hasn't been working.
I'm using my workaround for twitch atleast by connecting to it on a different ISP then swithcin back to Excitel, then as long as i don't refresh or click anything else it works atleast for that stream and basic chat.
