So still no feedback on the issue? In terms of what caused it.

From an Openserve tech:

"Good day Mr. *****,

We have solved the issue whereby rats were chewing our main links and causing disruptions to our network.

Connectivity should be fully restored shortly. Thank you for your patience.

they haven't even taken the notice off their website and the AH reps are MIA on the forum. I guess the kak is still hitting the fan from a PR perspective now.

I had to attend to one of these not too long ago...they get through the smallest gaps. happens more often then you think. More so on the last mile leg to the client.

I understand it was a complex issue. I am still trying to piece together what happened, and I don't want to add to the confusion.

We have a Deco...it should just work. I haven't changed any settings on it. Granted I haven't even tried to reboot the unit yet either...

Reboot probably a good idea

10/10 on https://test-ipv6.com/. Seems to have fixed itself....just got home so haven't had time to reboot.

What the heck is going on with the routing?

Every single traceroute I do from JHB goes to Durban and then back on hop #2 and #3 and to servers in the USA it is routed via Mauritius (Liquid Telecom).

Last seen this weird routing when the cables went down last year on Supersonic's network.

Openserve's remained unchanged at that stage, but since last week's outage it also seems to have changed now.
