That's good in one way: it means that your system is actually working perfectly well. Unfortunately it also implies that the problem is actually somewhere in the network downstream of you. Since it seems to affect all external users equally, the problem must be within your service provider's network. The only thing you can do is open a ticket with your support and pray that it gets looked at by someone with a clue. The on/off behaviour often means that you're interacting with a dual server system, which is possibly meant to provide redundancy, but one of the servers isn't working correctly and the load balance isn't cutting out the duff machine.
