International dead again

[RogueRunner]

Just me or is international doing the zzzz thing?

 

[somedude]

Nope, here too. It seems to be a mix though - most sites are fine, except for sites hosted in London. I'm on Afrihost (IS).

[RogueRunner]

I've just spoken to the SEACOM NOC and they claim the Estimated Time to
Repair (ETR) is 5 hours from now at approximately 12:30pm.
There was no Reason for Outage (RFO) specified.

From our ISP. Fark!!!!! Again?!?!?

 

[CorneN]

Yay... I'll go fap or something in the meanwhile.

Err some of us actually need to access drivers / BIOS updates for work !!! Stupid SA internet

 

[PhireSide]

Err some of us actually need to access driver downloads ect for work !!!

Ditto...guess if we cannot do it, no one can so in a way that saves our behinds

 

[chakarinet]

International down

just when I decided to do some work for a change

 

[vaalpens]

and ofcourse this affects local peering when u sit other side of the local fence

 

[Snake Blisken]

seriously over this crap!!!

 

[lucifir]

so does everyone only use seacom now??
what happened to SAT3/SAFE?? surely there must be some backup onto those cables??

 

[Gtx Gaming]

sat-3 redundancy for isp cost allot, so mostly business packages will have access on certain isp.

 

[Easter Bunny]

front page on mybb: "SEACOM biting the hand that feeds it?" - with all this down time, it makes me think seacon is feeding itself.

also, is this the part where we say "seacom is like your mom - it goes down on me all the time"?

 

[The_Unbeliever]

Bah and humbug

 

[Nicko]

!!!!! not working for me either. But so odd, I cant browse but I can update my steam and my bittorrent works too

 

[medicnick83]

Twitter rumors have "it will be fixed by 12:30"

 

[Venomous]

my net is running fine,

ever so slightly slower than normal but otherwise no beeg problems. Busy with a big DL at the moment. (Behaving as a not over-shaped line)

that's why I don't mind paying for unshaped. When the poop hits the fan they make a plan to keep my net going with little or no interruptions.

 

[Niren_M]

Very slow. Afrihost website admits problems and their engineers are working on it.
