ADSL dead - anyone else?

Doh! I just did a reconnect on my one server that was not down. Now it's gone too >_<

This is the thing about remote diagnostics - Come check the forums first.
 
Mweb is just as clueless as the rest of us it seems:

"Investigating", mmmmm.

My first guess would be that someone accidentally coughed in the general direction of the Seacom cable again, leading to another 15 weeks of repairs. This is the time it normally happens, but even local is down this time.

Edit: Their tech support line is also boned. The subscriber you have dialed is not available.

Just died here in Northriding. ISP is Openweb. Line syncs fine but PPPoE Discovery is broken so cannot authenticate
 
Add me to that list. Cape town claremont.
 
Still down here in Honeydew, JHB. I wonder who tripped over the Radius Server cable or which techie was playing around with the wrong configs? *grin* 1 wrong move or device failure and the whole country can come to a standstill, lol. Gotta love the internet ;)
 
Everything seems to be working again, thanks Kyle :D

Just came back up in Sandton

EDIT: I just changed from MWEB account to Axxess, so cannot say if it was MWEB issue
