IB Data Feed Problems?

Fwiw, mine is fine now. 2 days back it was crappy.Today mine (in Ireland) is great but 2 friends (USA) were getting problems but ok now. One of them spoke to IB two days back and IB admitted they didn't know what the problem was. IB had added some new features and didn't know where the bugs were. They thought it was solved but had called everyone back in to get to the bottom of it. Seems to be a regional problem now as some post they are ok and others are wonky.

Things are OK here this morning but I did notice all my non-futures quotes blank off for about 10 seconds then re-appear.

Yeah same thing happened here.
 
I found astonishing that the datafeed for my Simulated Account, which feeds on a second computer into multicharts doenst have the problems while the main feed lags at the opening at 8.30.

Mine was okay this morning but then my internet connection went out. :D Sheesh!! I can tell it's doing it when we get the 0.00's in the P&L column like the picture above. I'm using the August 16 861.5 Version so it's not some new software glitch. Must be the servers.
 
It appears to me that IB's system capacity is being severely strained. During yesterday's plane crash incident the order system and quote system were moving extremely slowly. I am sure that IB realizes that they lose a lot in commissions when we cannot place orders properly.
