International Down?

great start to the world cup

Yeah, if this is a huge national outtage which it looks like, I'm wondering what all the foreign guys are thinking and experiencing now. So many news, sport, technology etc companies must be cut off to their international head offices to some degree and not to mention all the visitors...
 
im on afrihost very slow 4mb feels like 384 mw2 very unstable /me thinks bandwidth hijacked for world cup
 
Cybersmart issues in London - my adsl is down so using 3G

If you're with Cybersmart, the following is from their support page. *sigh* Do you think we'll get a discount for the time we're down? Not.

Update: 08:08:54

Our international provider is having network peering issues in London. They are currently re-routing traffic.

We have scheduled a maintenance window between 6am - 8am Friday morning.
There is a very low risk of downtime, however, with all network changes the possibility exists.
We are introducing redundancy to our network in the UK so that we can provide you the customer
with better response times and reliability.

Cybersmart
 
No problem at all, been on the net since 4am.

EDIT: Also on support this week and no notifications on dropped bandwidth to our Amazon servers.
 
Hmmm is it just me or is it down right now? Can't access anything international on Afrihost uncapped PTA/Garsfontein?
 
Afrihost international down all morning

haven't been able to acces afrihost uncapped international all morning. Anyone know where I can get a status update?
 
MWEB uncapped still working.

I'm actually getting suprisingly good speeds this morning...almost as if you guys having problems has freed up bandwidth for us. It's like full shaping hasn't kicked in today.
 
For vark sakes, this is getting old. On a holiday as well!!
 
I had no international on my Mweb 384kbps Uncapped until I reconnected the PPPoE connection.

Edit: I was speaking too soon. The international connectivity is very intermittent now
