Anyone else having having problems connecting to international sites?

[Fudzy]

Connected via Cybersmart - haven't been able to connect to any international websites for the last 20 minutes now.

Nope... No issue here, I'm using Webafrica

Was slow for me earlier today, but seems to be ok now.

 

[Fudzy]

Odd, its only some sites. Facebook - slow. Digg - not slow.

Yip, me too, once again cybersmart is as slow as a donkey, sick of this now, been going on for almost 3 weeks.

 

[Jonno2343]

Yeah, I'm also out.
Quite irritating to say the least

Also on cybersmart i cant connect to international accounts, went on the website and there is no explanation or reason for this...getting pretty frustrated, has anyone maybe phoned them to ask what the problem is?

 

[Bartima3us]

Yup, cybersmart as well, having problems with almost everything except for Digg, very weird. Getting frustrating

 

[Briefs]

Me too

Me too, Cybersmart account.

This is only my first month with them - does this happen often? I'm online pretty much every evening and this is the first time I've noticed anything.

I tried a traceroute to a couple different sites and things seem to come unstuck at a Telkom server (why am I not surprised?!):

Tried hard rebooting my router incase it was something on my side but still no change ... off to bed and maybe it'll be fixed in the morning :-(

I'm emigrating in 3 months time so just trying to stick it out until then.

 

[Rocco1]

Yip me too.
Seems Cybersmart connection with most international websites is down, or horribly slow and timing out half the time (though some off-beat EU websites still avail

 

[elysian]

Same here. Yip, also with Cybersmart.

 

[Bartima3us]

Anybody know the cause ?
