[stix]

Anyone else ?

* Cape Town !

Yup, also in CPT.

 

[Afrikane]

SAIX in CPT too

 

[Turbo_Aspiration]

No problems this side, running fine

 

[Inertia]

IS has been extremely slow the last few days - international and local

 

[JayM]

My Verizon international is slow too. It even went down completely for a few minutes earlier.

 

[RazorSA]

SAIX AND IS in CPT !!!!!!! Last night, and this AM!!!!

Am also browsing in agony. Even the telkom dsl speed test is as slow as dial up. During the weekend the speed was ok though. Also on IS, now the question remains, is it IS or Telkom?

depends on who you ask

Same here in Cape Town on the uncapped ISDSL service. Since yesterday local and international browsing were slow as hell.

IS - You owe us all an explanation of what is wrong. This is getting rediculous.

The SAT3 Cable is fubar by the looks of it!!!

This will affect ADSL users as welll

Im on IS, ran the local telkom test and US speakeasy test...

Telkom:

* Download time: 82.629 seconds
* Size of file: 500 KiloBytes
* Estimated line speed: 49.4 (kilobits/second)
* Estimated line speed: 6.1 (kiloBytes/second)

Speakeasy:

Download Speed: 158 kbps (19.8 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 57 kbps (7.1 KB/sec transfer rate)

So looks like the problem is Telkom

Yes crawling here as well?
Even MyADSL which normally loads quickly was briefly down a few moments ago.
I do not think it is the power as Koeberg is on-line again?
The last I heard.

 

[Phaff]

Yep, still on a go-slow. The technical guy said we must know that 15% of our bandwidth is lost because of a tunneling protocol used to assign our static IP...wow, 15% of 1024K, thats some heavy protocol..still does not explain why the other 85% is so slow..

 

[donaldza]

This is killing me what the hell is going on.
