> 33 % loss...

Local seems OK, but international is exceeding 33%; have informed Joburg managers, however they passed the buck to Cape Town and will be investigating...

Does anyone actually have problems connecting to www.l.google.com or do they just have problems pinging it?

 

[limnos]

Ok it's DEFINITELY international. Can't facebook, can't google, can't wikipedia, can't rapidshare!!!!

I'm a grumpy man tonight...

Thanx iBust!

Is it not possible that they're shaping the pinging port?

Seems like iburst has been having major issues since end of last week sometime.

 

[frozt01100101]

Hey

Since Thursday, to be exact. And yes, it is in a sense international. Something at IS (Internet Solutions) blew and it kicked back into iBurst's system, as they are the people through whom iBurst does international link
