Vumatel aren't aware of any outages in Linksfield. What makes you think it's an outage vs a line fault?

Sunday nights are normally crappy (50mbps on 100mbps line) but tonight things are so bad I'm having 90's flash backs.
If I ever manage to pull WinMTR, I'll send those too.

Eventually....
[EDIT Again]
Doing my best to reach the CoolZone… It's virtually impossible. Browser gives up loading. F5, wait and repeat.
@Fluttershy, I see you are in Durban too... some moron has broken something at Teraco I think...

Octotel's international throughput is now worse than I've ever seen it before:
Local is still flying:

Twitch is completely unusable at this point. Is there any news from Octotel PBcool?

Apologies for jumping to conlusions. Never had a break and a live line/PPP session before.
ECNS licensees should have to report outages in a central location.
Eventually found a report on Afrihost's site about Mitsol.

I usually check Tech5's website since they are based in the same area, so they usually have updates on Mitsol (Vumatel) outages in the Upper Highway area.
