my stuff is running fine (Burgundy)...there was issues last night but it's fixed now...apparently it was an area wide problem on Telkom's side (according to Afrihost).

I did see 2 Telkom bakkies this morning in the area...they might be doing maintenance somewhere...

anyhow...keep us posted

Cabernet lines are dead! Hopefully vdsl installation that causes this downtime.

Telkom lines still down in Cabernet! Anyone online in Cabernet?

I'm online, but very intermittent. I was online whole night last night, it was down today between 9 and 3'ish and now it's now back online

Thanks for the update. Something strange is going on. I've got no dial tone nothing. And Telkom is ignoring me. Hopefully the technicians works over weekends.

Telkom just phoned me out of the blue and asked me whether my modem is on at home. Sounds like they are cutting us over from the old exchange to the new MSAN's for VDSL. He just phoned me and told me that my line shows as not active (hence why he asked me whether my router is on). He's on his way back to have a look at the exchange to ensure that my line is connected properly.

I'm assuming they've cut us over today. My ADSL worked fine this morning before going to work

This is good news :)
