I just got my speed stick last week and am super impressed with the speed although it has been a bit erratic today. That said, I can't see my websites which are hosted with hetzner ?!?!? Hetzner support are saying that Cell C are aware of this. Has anyone else had this problem, is it something that might be solved by using another DNS server etc. etc.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Example URL please?
 
Trouble accessing some websites - CellC 2GB p/m speedstick

Since yesterday there are several sites I can't seem to open for no particular reason, examples:

www.openweb.co.za
www.sybaritic.co.za

Anyone else experiencing this?

Same here - some sites I can access with no problem, others not at all, noticed it from early this morning. Pinging them results in timeout. Using CellC speedstick, based in Pretoria. Anyone else having trouble?
 
Haven't been able to access www.cellc.co.za (!) and mybroadband.co.za, amongst others, the whole day. Must be some routing problem.

Using the work VPN to access the forums to post this.
 
It works now. I'm able to access this site and the CellC site. Wait....nope, not the Gautrain site... :(
 
Sporadic access to this site, however the others are still problematic
www.daddysdeals.co.za
www.massage.co.za

CellC, instead of responding to posts about your promotions, etc why not respond to your customer queries????

As yet, they have not even acknowledged this thread or the problems listed therein. Incredible!
 
Able to access the site fine this morning. Must have been a temporary glitch....
 
I am having the same issue unable to visit sites such as bidorbuy.co.za and afrihost.co.za - I am able to ping the domains fine without any errors also tried Chrome,firefox and IE9
