Frogfoot Port Elizabeth

Good day all,

Please be advised after an extensive troubleshooting session with ME and Core department, Teams fixed some small issues with light levels and ensuring traffic was routing correctly, and we confirmed traffic was back within normal usage, comparing to previous traffic patterns at the same time.

We tested our network extensively, running ping tests from our bridge in CPT to the OLT's in PLZ, with minimal to no loss seen with over 5000 packets sent, with an aggressive MTU and and interval set.

plz-walmer-olt-1

ping x.x.x.x size=1500 do-not-fragment interval=0.04 count=5000

sent=5000 received=4990 packet-loss=0% min-rtt=9ms810us avg-rtt=10ms210us max-rtt=28ms738us

plz-lorraine-olt-1

ping x.x.x.x size=1500 do-not-fragment interval=0.04 count=5000

sent=5000 received=5000 packet-loss=0% min-rtt=9ms839us avg-rtt=10ms125us max-rtt=22ms567us.

Do note that our teams are still further investigating the matter and feedback will be provided once we have feedback.

Thank you kindly.

Yes. I've had intermittent connectivity all day. Dead annoying. I've now procured 4G from Telkom and an LTE router as a backup. I'll have to think about whether LTE might not be a better solution. Fibre seems very unstable.
 
Internet seems slow but speed test is fine. Ping is good. Still, videos are buffering like crazy and some games just aren't connecting via launcher.
