So yesterday everything is working perfectly. This morning I wake up and on two seperate android devices and a windows pc I get the above error when trying to access some sites. The most notable of these being google.com. Anyone have any idea as to what it might be? nothing has changed between yesterday and today so I am at a bit of a loss here.

edit - I also cannot open google play store on the android devices. Have tried a router reset already with no effect.

Same here, google.com youtube.com gmail not accessible as of this morning.

Work perfectly last night.

All other sites are reachable except the above.

Also on Telkom ADSL.

Downdetector.co.za has a listing of possible issues at Telkom. just using Duckduckgo as my search engine for now. Will see if it comes right during the day, but I am happy its not just me.

I have seen 4 separate threads about TI international downtime, specifically to Google site. Seems like there is a issue with their side, now just to see how long it takes to resolve.

I'm not sure if the issue is still there for you guys. This issue started at 1am this morning.

I changed my DNS to 8.8.8.8 , I disconnected and reconnected my internet connection and everything was resolved. Didn't have an issue since then. Try the above and see if it resolves.
