[ShaunSA]

Have you clicked on my link yet?

My interwebs is down

Maybe ICASA will approve Starlink now

Yes, for their offices

However, if your service provider is Rain, the bad days cannot even be properly distinguished from the good days.

I think it should state that all companies using Azure have an outage instead.

When will we get Stinkbeaver's ForSure Azure Outage Map downloadable?

 

[Dups!]

Vodacom is the worst with my lines. MTN is not that bad.

Someone in Abidjan apparently closed the WACS valve.

Now all we need is the houties to kill the EASSy and Seacom links, and we are back in 1980.

I am probably late to this, but here is what I can see from the perspective of the TENET network.
The primary link to London, WACS went down at 12:30 today.
the SAT-3 backup link went down today at 07:30 AM

all international traffic for tenet is being directed through SEACOM

Tender now out

 

[Lupus]

Okay everything works via my mobile data, seems Vumatel just needs to catch a wakeup

 

[longboy]

No wonder I had a team from Telkom knocking on my door this morning. They were offering "Free fiebah for 1 month just for you Sir, we have your name in our list of adresses that service impoverished communities."

Shhhh! don't let the facts get in the way of the conspiracy theories...

 

[DapperDanMan]

High latency and timeouts on international traffic. Probably a cable break somewhere...

Oh, most definitely!

As confirmed by @cAv:

MS Azure outage > 12:30pm 14/03/2024

Duckduckgo has just bellied up too.

I need to go for that HAM licence to keep up with times.

 

[mpdjhb]

One of the few instances the use of the word "massive" is actually true on Mybb.

That still a thing? Still need to learn Morse code?

Yes, for their offices

Pfft, for lootfreely house or it's satellite offices elsewhere in SA.

 

[dontcryforme]

The whole internet runs on Azure now?

Standard Bank is and its failing badly
