Cool Ideas Fibre ISP – Feedback Thread 3

[AfricanTech]

Did the ONT first. The router reconnected and reestablished a PPPoE connection, but it couldn't ping or traceroute anything. So it got a reboot too and then everything worked.

Mine doesn't seem to have kicked in yet (just rebooted ONT and Router) - anyhow, no hurry, will check tomorrow

When does the new Openserve ip connect model come into effect.

When we sign their contracts which are at this point non-existent.

Did you need to reboot anything to get back up?

Edit: back up. Didn't reboot anything.

No, just fixed itself

 

[PBCool]

Yeah we pickup Vumatel in 2 locations in CPT this was specific to Vumatel, we would rather put up a notice to cover more people than less.
Upgrade done and successful, delays were down to Vumatel as we only managed to start at 8:40... So apologies for that.

 

[John Tempus]

All good now.

 

[leppie]

My fibre has been fixed. Ant infestation. They seem to like naked fibre strands.

77BEK010420 - OpenServe Reference. It's with them.

And this morning we're good on the pings from George to Cape Town.

Only the speeds that still not 100%, but internet is usable for today's WFH > https://www.speedtest.net/result/9223973290.png

so in your experience @PBCool Which of the fibre provider is the best? Has got the least amount of downtime and not congested?

Openserve so far, but also by far the most expensive as well.
