5 of the 13 iBurst area's are down, whats up with that? I dont know about the others but Kempton has been down for like 8 hours. I had urgent work to do, all I can say is thank *** for 3G and bluetooth.

Did they say what was the problem with those B/S?

They said the problem was "Backhaul failure to CBD relay impacting 5 base stations". Too much is going on with iBurst at the moment, I just can't take it anymore, I shouldn't have a problem every 3 days and then no one knows whats going on untill its fixed 2 days later, I want my connection to just work. I switch it on and it works. I think I'm going back to ADSL

Give them until April and see what happens.
As I understand the backhaul they are using, there should be a lot of interferance when it rains or strong wind.
As for the Jabulani Basestation in Soweto, it linked to Roodepoort and Northcliff, then what's going to happen when some guy decided to build a skycrapper or they put up a bill board across the link?

Well if it's a microwave link maybe it'll fry the obstruction to smithereens, or perhaps Ellereens...


I am joking of course
