24-hour timeout absent???

[Flippit]

I just looked at my router status, and it shows a connected time of 89 hours, 25 minutes! This is on a TelkomInternet 3GB account, in Cape Town.

Has anyone else noticed this? Perhaps Telkom is starting to comply with the "no periodic resets" part of the ICASA regulations?

Did your IP's change or did it remain static?

 

[Ekhaatvensters]

Do all ADSL lines really still reset every 24 hours? It's a very common excuse with online games that disconnect very easily. I thought it was a "feature" in some Marconi routers.

Sorry about the noob question, but that seems a little ridiculous.

Is this a sign of things to come?

There was a problem on Saturday morning where some? Cape Town areas couldn't authenticate to ADSL network, so maybe this is as a resul of that, rather than a policy change?

This is in Bellville, so still looks like its being reset to me.

The router log indicates that it did not receive a new IP in the past 86 hours...strange indeed

 

[Kloon]

Okay so it seems my connection still resets, but the ip stayed the same.

My router indicates that my connection has not been reset in 109:37:50. The problem is that Telkom's Useless Tracker indicates that NO uploads or downloads have occured since the last reconnect.

 

[Flippit]

127:14:41, now. I have also, according to the SAIX user statistics, had the same IP since the 10th September. Strange! Never taken notice of how long I've had an IP for until now, so this could be common - has anyone else had this?

Also, is this only happening in Cape Town?

EDIT: Unfortunately, the SAIX usage tracker is working as normal. The Telkom tracker, however, is showing no usage since the 3rd! Does anyone know which is used for capping purposes?

I'm in Durban. Still on. Now 2 days 11 hours 39 min.

 

[Kloon]

Nah looks like i spoke to soon, ip changed during the coarse of the day.

 

[Gambit]

I run a saix international and a IS local account concurrently and after a reset of the router 26 hours ago the 2 pppoe session started together at the same time. Now my SAIX pppoe session says it has been active for 1 day 2 hours and my IS pppoe session says it has been active for 2 hours. So it looks like IS need to do something about their resets now.

 

[Ekhaatvensters]

So it looks like IS need to do something about their resets now.

Ahh, too bad its the IS local that I'd like to stay connected.
