This is weird...
I'm currently surfing my Gmail account on my axxess local account, google works as well, actually I can surf most sites.

Can any one else confirm this for me? maybe I'm doing something wrong here because I cant find any other connection active except my local only connection. :confused:

Edit:

Well looks like it's over now, sorry to those who missed the free international on local ;)

Its wierd, but when my international goes down (happened alot the last week or 2) i can still get into my gmail account
 
I imagine Google might have local servers replicating from the global ones, hence it continuing to work.

Just a thought.
 
gmail does not have local servers (as far as I know) .... it is possibly ur ISP that is allowing gmail through as an added benefit to its customers

You are wrong. ;) Read the news. They announced that they will have Local servers by the end of Dec 2007. Christmas must have come a bit late though :D :D
I'll check at home of it's really local ... in a few hours.
 
:D:D I seem to be able to browse any international site with axxess local bandwidth:):rolleyes::eek::cool::p

? Sorry if you're being sarcastic, but uhh he's absolutely right. the 165. range (capped) was uncapped for a while a few days ago. obviously a little glitch in telkom's routing. they fixed it within a few hours though.
