hi,
Well i come online this morning to find that no internation sites are working. Atfirst i think its my modem/router/hub but then i decided to get onto myadsl :) Anyone here also experiencing difficulties? Im in Cape Town and its been raining for ages...maybe thats why
 
I am in Durban..and i had this same problem yesterday...even last night when i went out it was still like this...but when i got home at about 1am and had a quick check on my line...it was back to its former glory.....nice and zippy...still holding steady this morning...hope it stays that same...

not sure anymore whether its IS..i am leaning more and more towards the fact that it apears to be a Telkom issue, regarding the strikes and vandalism....

As far as dialup accounts go, I haven't been able to use IS for 2 days. I can connect, but basically can't download any websites. I can't download my emails from a local server either.
I'm now on SAIX dialup - slow but at least it's working.
 
my local appears to be v. fast...when i load gMail, i get an error message

Thankfully back to its normal self here in PMB since 21h00 yesterday.
 
I got disconnected this morning at about 00:30, which it did the same thing one week ago, I phoned telkom,ask what is going on,they just say telkom internet is down,I ask what's wrong,they said they have no idea.

WTF,they even didn't know what is going on.sooo stupid!!
 
its not telkom...its Internet Solutions, unless you buy SAIX bandwidth then it is Telkom...
 
Having much slower speeds than usual on IS....Also had a lot of disconnects (Modem is Synced) Have to wait around 15 mins for it to log back in, did this 5 times in a row within 2 hours yesterday :(

Logging back in by me takes forever as well :(. Just during normal 24hr ip reset. Otherwise speeds have been fine really.
 
IS Uncapped in Randburg, JHB knackered this morning...

Edit: Int e-mail is fine, it just seems to be browsing and p2p, local also fine...
