I'm also experiencing crap speeds to rapidshare all of a sudden...

local seems fine, but international is as dead as my will to stay on iburst any longer.

Been trying to get the jerk-offs at iburst IT to unblock an SMTP server of ours for the last week... and they requested a list of 'all outgoing email addresses' on our servers! Unbelievable... like we are gonna release a list of all client email addresses to them??

 

[wesleyfraser]

Yeah my local also seems ok...

 

[Kuga]

My international is so pomped. Sites don't load properly. Even mybb, it's just plain white background with some random buttons and text.

 

[wesleyfraser]

Spoke to Iburst apparently they are having problems in the johannesburg area, and it should sort itself out within the hour... Mmmm have to wait and see...

 

[jem]

Back up in PTA

 

[Jagtiger]

Looks like fixed:
Before:


After:

 

[iBurst]

jem,
Sorry about that. There was an upstream cable fault as has been mentioned in other posts.

 

[Rustum]

@Iburst: Perhaps post a sticky explaining such issues, so readers can see it in one place and you don't have to repeat it in every thread?

 

[nic777]

Is it broken again? It was fine an hour ago but now acting slow like last night.

 

[nic777]

Ok, false alarm, think it was either brief network issue or a problem on my side. Speeds are back to normal.

Ronald : Thanks for sorting out my smtp server unblock! You're the man, appreciate the help!
