There is currently an outage on one of our international links. Most traffic classes are unaffected as we have sufficient capacity on other international links to cover this. Peer-2-Peer traffic is, however, being heavily shaped. We don’t have an ETA yet as to when we expect this failure to be rectified. We will keep you posted.

Typical.. But it does coincide with the final splicing of the SEACOM cable to connect it directly to Europe, so it no longer needs to piggy back off SE-ME-WE 4 through India.

I get nothing to germany though, as my Teamviewer connects to there, and its kicking up a fuss. lol

Lets hope this does not take too long.

Thanks for the update MWeb
 
At least not down completely.
 
Would have expected this to occur tomorrow or Friday, just in time for the weekend.. [insert sarcasm]
 
Much better :p

So i switch to my IS backup and things are even worse, mybb does not even load :eek:. Not a great back up plan haha.
 
Yes, I got an email from Openweb too. Not sure if this affects both Mweb and I/S or Mweb only?
 
Plus we should start seeing the benefit of EASSy soon, innit?
 
well my HoN games all time out still, just like before the maintenance and COD is also not too bright....hope this fix this issues we have with mweb :(
 
Still very slow via SEACOM at 6pm, over 450ms latency to Europe.

SAT-3 is completely unaffected, but Mweb is using that only for 'high-priority' traffic...

No issues with p2p on my side...384 line.....Thanks MWEB :)
 
Sigh, maybe we should just start getting notices for when it *is* working properly instead.

(p2p definitely almost-dead my side.)
