Hello everyone.

I've been in contact with Sentech to help sort out the changes done on Tower 12 - Mintek.

If any of you have had a decrease/loss of signal quality lately, could you please give some feedback....

Has signal strength been restored ?
Have you found any problems with tower connections of late ?


As an aside did anyone loose connectivity to the tower for a short period around 20:50 on Friday evening (04/30) ?

Well I've just got back and it's 9:34pm. The tower must have gone down at about the time you mentioned. I know this because I use DC++, and I can see the Connection Timeouts during the last couple of hours. What has changed since I last checked which must have been just after their optimisations - my signal strength is back up to 36% from 25%. I have also pasted results from - http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/

230.8 kilobits per second

Communications 230.8 kilobits per second


Storage 28.2 kilobytes per second
1MB file download 36.3 seconds

And that is with DC++ running - actually someone is uploading from me...
