DSL connect issues

Mine also went down.

At first it was anger; resting the router cursing it for going offline during an EVE online OP and Google drive going poof with the documents being worked on.
Then came disbelief; checking banking statements to see if I have paid...no problem there.
After that came sadness; feeling bad for missing the Wormhole exploration OP.
Now it's acceptance; time to work further on the application code I have been putting off for later.

Ooh well it's coding for tonight ...

I'm online again too on WA. Switching to Mweb to check that...

Edit: Switched to Mweb and authenticated in seconds. All sorted now, it looks like.

Yeah, the voice line seems to be completely dead. If I plug the line directly into the router, the adsl line works. If I plug it directly into the phone, the phone stays dead. If I run it through the splitter, neither the adsl or voice line works.

I think some part of the infrastructure here in Melkbosstrand is just completely broken. I'll log a fault on Telkom's website, but knowing them we'll probably be waiting another 4 or 5 days for a resolution.

Afrihost account went down about 20min ago... All green and connected on the router, but all is dead
 
I am having weird disconnects too. Haven't yet checked if I am losing sync but the pppoe connections drops and I am able to reconnect fine but on every reconnect I find my ip address has changed.

Normally if I get disconnected my ip address usually stays the same for a while afterwards which is why I find these recent disconnects strange.

Anybody else also notice this?
