It's one of those some-do and some-dont scenarios.
Nothing on the bulletin board but apparently Joburg had a major outage this morning and that didnt get a mention either.

Oh dear.
as a rough, totally unscientific estimate, i guess i have experienced degraded or non-existent access (i.e. not being able to access local and/or international sites) at least 5 times in the last 2 months.
this might seem little but i think it is still unacceptable to be without internet for a few hours everytime, especially in comparison with international standards (and don't give me that 'but we're in africa crap')
firstly because i pay for it and i think sentech's customer service stinks like a dead fish left under the seat of a car parked in the sun and secondly, i need internet access for work.

Will see if TMN is playable.....
Even local is excrutiatingly slow.It took me almost 5 min to access this forum.I tried to download a 4M file from the Apache local mirror and my DL speed was 1KB/s and I'm on the 256k package.I'm connecting to some box with IP address 196.31.33.185.

Are we stuck with this speed for the weekend ?
If this is Sentech's idea of highest priority then words fail me for the prospect of them managing the 2010 communications.

You'll be amazed, they will actually do a good job because of the big money involved.
