Not sure about Neotel though...

Google fine for me. Only thing that give a problem is this particular website if I try to post via IE9 - it simply hangs for up to 45 seconds.
I find this 'auto-save' a real pain as well, whether using IE9 or Chrome.

I think it might be a problem with the akamai servers. The temporary fix is to change your DNS settings to opendns: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220
Google DNS servers won't work

[Aztech]

Same here (no Google) in Cape Town, via Neotel

No problem via MTN

 

[encrypted]

im running this in hosts atm to get search going:

209.85.229.99 www.google.com
209.85.229.99 google.com
209.85.229.99 google.co.za
209.85.229.99 www.google.co.za

I did this after repeatedly googling stuff and deciding I cant live till its working! I tried bing once... that thing is still epic fail.

Hi all..

Please update your DNS server to GTEI DNS (Verizon) on 4.2.2.2 through to 4.2.2.6. It seams as though CellC does not have routes to the 209.85.148.0/24 network. The GTEI server resolve all Google DNS queries to 74.125.39.0/24 range which is accessible from the CellC network.

PS - I'm not sure about the subnet masks...

Odd, working perfectly here. I can even connect to microsoft.com
What is your output of nslookup www.google.com 208.67.222.222?
Or dig -4 @208.67.222.222 www.google.com if you're on mac/linux

 

[ivanw]

All Google services are not working

Cant get anything google related - mail / accounts / Picasa / Talk
What did CellC do to Google

Very Frustrating
