Discord ping is crazy high
View attachment 1893086
It's not just discord, playing games my ping will shoot to 6000 and higher for few seconds then go back down to 20 for couple minutes and then shoot up again. @Afrigirl are you aware of any issue on the backbone ling from CPT to JHB as local speed test and pings seems fine, is just as soon as we go out side of CPT not even international, connecting to AWS in JHB and we have to deel with this kind of ping that makes gaming not possible.

Any update on this? It's been down awhile now. @Afrigirl
 
How long is this going to take? And why is my WhatsApp reporting that Frogfoot / Vox is working fine if this supposedly a big outage? Aad where is the notice I don't see it?
 
Down on Frogfoot in KZN since 13:45.

Got this response from WhatsApp support:
The issue has been marked as resolved however the issue is still on going as there is an issue with the VLAN.
 
Down on Frogfoot in KZN since 13:45.

Got this response from WhatsApp support:
Maybe don't mark the issue as resolved then Afrihost ffs.

Jesus talk about sticking your head in the sand.

Who is resolved for?
 
I see Afrihost has listed the issue again:
Western CapeHigh Impact • Frogfoot outage | Western Cape

16:06 • 14 Mar 2026

We are aware of connectivity problems in Western Cape affecting Frogfoot clients. Afrihost and Frogfoot engineers are working on resolving the problem as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
 
Quick question - not sure if I missed anything - my FF connection suddenly is connecting via PPPoE and not Dynamic IP anymore?
 
Good day all.

Please note that the fault is still currently ongoing.

Our technical team together with Afrihost is driving a resolution.

As soon as we receive progressive feedback, we will inform you.

Thank you for your patience in the matter.
 
KZN still down, what's the update Afrihost/Frogfoot?

The team is still in an active troubleshooting session. So far we have determined that our DHCP helper IP on the gateway is blackholed as no discover packets are reaching us.

An emergency change was done to add an additional IP and traffic is starting to restore now.

IPV6 is not affected this is only affecting IPv4.
