Down in Fernglen. Random packet loss today as well.

Sigh. We can’t win can we.

Best effort service.

Seems to be down in Mount Pleasant also..

18:00 back online in Mount Pleasant

Rowallan park too

 

[Groggyme]

Yeah in Lorraine as well. Why did I not move to Fixed LTE or 5g ?

 

[Convex]

All fine in Linton Grange

Same here, running on back up too, airmobile 5G, performs better and is more reliable than FrogFoot fibre

Yes, but one resents having to pay the extra cost. Fibre is the service that's supposed to be reliable!

How in the living hell do they go down with nothing being done on their network. Is their hardware that poor that it simply breaks?

 

[Sig_ZA]

I'm up. Latency could be better.

Openserve is installing in my area. Anyone know what experience with them is like? Hard to imagine it wouldn't be better than FrogFoot, but it is more expensive.

With Openserve you can expect to go down 3x a year, instead of 3x a week.

If I could switch, I would do it in a heartbeat.

 

[MeTsU]

We've been on Openserve for 3 months shy of 7 years, and can count on a single hand how many outages we've had - we've been very happy.
