    The Octotel Premium (Multi-gig fibre 2.5/5/10Gbit) Thread

    It's my understanding they'll keep the same ONT, so won't see SFP+ from the ONT. Would be nice, not a deal breaker for me.

    The Octotel Premium (Multi-gig fibre 2.5/5/10Gbit) Thread

    2.5Gbps up and running in Kenilworth, Cape Town on Atomic Access. Solid so far, can't wait for 5Gbps though! Also got a Halny ONT, model HLX-TGV. Runs 10Gbps RJ45 to my UDM Pro Max with a UniFi transceiver (UACC-CM-RJ45-MG), running pretty cool so far. Seems to have negotiated at 10Gbps with...

    Massive Internet outage in SA

    Jasis, WTF are you talking about with these conspiracies? You're probably seeing a badly configured infrastructure with Azure, who seem to be re-routing a bunch of traffic outside of ZA, so affected by cable breaks. Take off your tinfoil hat dude.

    Massive Internet outage in SA

    Huh? That's simply not true. If AWS customers host in a specific region, that's where the content goes. There are no "main servers" - AWS has presense in SA, if content is hosted within the region it doesn't go to Ireland.

    Cheapest dedicated server pricing roundup - February 2024

    What a poorly written article. Just looking at the first provider in the table, you say Xneelo has a 2TB SSD. With what RAID setup? Surely you can't just assume everyone will run RAID 0? The hardware is in fact 2x 1TB SSD's. Also, how on earth are providers still providing HDD's are a primary...
