If this was not so serious/sad I'd say this was a comedy thread.

what is going on guys...Cape Town here, hey our power is up, we need to get max pc time again before the lights go out again.

I can't get into MSN obviously so there goes my lovelife and social life, last thing I wanna do is see other people or go out for a drink :0

I can joke about this now, cause TELKOM is installing my ADSL tomorrow, so no more iburst for me...woooohoooooooooo...imagine, 24/7 internet broadband, can you guys smell it??? p~~~~~~

Looks like international is working again, but this forum is still loading very slowly for me.

 

[Ekhaatvensters]

Ja, international is back, slowly, and they've also screwed up everything in the process.

Its terrible, I was trying to play online and everything suddenly just went dead.. after which it was about the worst I have ever seen.

 

[MrH]

Looks like I spoke too soon as I'm downloading from RS at a max of 33kbps

 

[nocilah]

things still crap on this side

as in international i think

 

[Ekhaatvensters]

I think there's slightly different CPT and JHB problems.

Aah yes, its back to this. I am now getting very good international pings, 350-430 and pretty stable (never usually below 500), because the bandwidth is being routed through JHB I assume.. you guys have much better international pings than us. probably just a temporary fix, its happened before.

But things screw out all the time, pings die randomly etc..

 

[MrH]

crappy in CT both international as well as local, must be those spam invoices they are still trying to send out.

 

[Ekhaatvensters]

I wish we could keep the JHB international pings after this...

I can actually see how much faster it connects to websites before it dies out from actually trying to download anything..

 

[Jongi]

Ahh it did later degrade for me as well. Went to bed asking myself if i had inadvertently downloaded 1.6GB on Sunday. Checked this morning and the bandwidth was still there. Now it all makes sense.

 

[MrH]

Over the past hour or so international and to some extent local is becoming erratic similar to last night with timeouts and slow loading speeds.
I hope we are not in for a repeat of last night in CT.
