It is frightful.
Some sites do not even open at all for me - switch over to SAIX, and they open instantly.

It's been up and down since yesterday. Don't you just love South African service delivery

I allegedly have an uncapped account with IS - Downloads from hhtp are excellent, however p2p is blocked - yet IS still think the account is unshaped............

Also certain email addresses cannot be sent to with IS - their server rejects the address - saix has no such problem.............

My IS accounts are totally Eskomed today.
I can connect and authenticate, and that is it.
Cannot even ping IPs - let alone browse.

Well done IS!!!
