International down again this morning.

Durbanville...

Anyone else?
 
Also fine here - D'ville. Its weird how 2 people can be in the same area - one works fine and other doesn't. Only telkom knows the answer to this???
 
Was a little slow earlier but right now there is no problem my side.

Plumstead area
 
Google seems to be down (google, gmail, blogspot), but everything else is up (Waterfront).
 
Thats weird as I've been busy with gmail for the past 30min or so and it's working fine my side.:confused:

EDIT: For those in CT try this DNS and see if it helps:

208.67.222.222

Well, I have 2 internet account. And it seems any international site (websites outside of South Africa, or any other peer) is unaccessible via Telkom (aka SAIX).

Welcome to LOCAL ONLY ADSL. This sucks!!!
 
Yes, it seems any international (peers outside South Africa) websites is unaccessible through SAIX

Almost completely kaput here, PE.
No google all day.
Very slow everything else.
PE

3G card works fine.
 
It's all back up, was down for around 2-3 hours..back up now
 
Without 3G you are sunk

Telkom seems to be having many connections problems at the moment. Thank heavens I have 3G otherwise my business would grind to a halt.
The broadband service is unreliable. Lets hope wireless will become cheaper!
