Good Morning Guys

Due to a Telkom cable break in the Gauteng Region , browsing will be affected as there are a few 3G sites down in the area.

I will keep this thread updated ,Vodacom currently investigating

Edit: UPDATE

We are routing our traffic from Gauteng via Silverton, Cape Town and Durban, there will however be a wide spread slow through put in browsing via various devices 3G and Blackberry e.t.c.


Update:19:00

Spoke to Network Management some of the sites are being restored i . e WASP and a few 3G cells
Also keeping in mind this will affect some of the call centres as well when calling in.

Update:07:15

Everything up and running? as per information received all services should be up and running as from 21:21 SAIX link has been restored.

Thanks for that...

I have a DSL line with Cybersmart, been down since around 6pm last night and a data bundle with Vodacom which is running but with little or no throughput resulting in timeouts, disconnections etc etc

I'm in Norwood, Johannesburg...
 
Yep Primrose Hill. DOWN... Have now switched to MTN... Hope they get this orted out quick as my whole business is internet based.
 
Telkom technician came past my house and was able to connect using his laptop and modem on my "faulty" line.

That would suggest my router is faulty as my ISP already claims everything is fine their side..
 
Internet Solutions Rosebank and Bryanston diginet lines down. Winet still running fine for now.
 
Damn, someone is going to pay!! The damaged 144 fibre optic cannot be spliced and repaired, it must be replaced - probably 200m length. Plus loss of revenue, etc...
 
Thanks

After I re installed 3 browsers, lost all my passwords, tried 8 proxies...
Atleast one works...
