So in Windows you need to run ping -n50 <ip> to send 50 packets.

When connected to the ONT direct run ipconfig and note down the gateway and do the same to the gateway.

<ip> is this to the router ip?
 
Afrihost please can you advise on a eta for the openserv fiber outage in the Lenasia area

Hi All
I am on AH PureFibre with Octotel
I am in the Kraaifotein area, WC.

Is anyone experiencing the constant issue whereby the internet dies multiple times a day and the only way to get it back it to reboot the router a couple of times?

What could be the issue here?


Thanks

Hi,

Sorry for the delay. The outage is still ongoing unfortunately and Openserve have techs on site.
This seems like a major outage and I'm afraid I don't have much info on it.
 
so since next month is party time for openserve customers let's look at pricing for a second.

200mbps @ R1117
- costs:
-- ofc @ R828 (on sa's best fno)
-- leaves R289 for:
--- support/retentions expense
--- the actual internet part
--- margin
(ignoring the sign-up incentives completely, those might go away soon)

#1 isp soon? :oops::popcorn:
 
Some sites are dead this morning, Openserve Durban. Can't even connect to my broadband, Site not found :/
 
Is there a problem with Vumatel in East London (Beacon Bay) - connection dropped about 20 minutes ago. Have restarted ONT and router and my Asus router gives a " your ISP's DHCP does not function properly " error
 
Hey all. Is there some sort of weird outage at the moment. I cannot access certain services like discord, mybroadband, escape from tarkov servers. Yet YouTube, twitch etc is perfectly fine. Typing this message from my phone on MTN and the services are fine there.

UPDATE: Mine just came back as I finished typing this.
