Seems to come and go. And by the traceroutes it seems that MWEB is switching between different links at the moment. May be a while before everything is stable. Right now:

Seems they are using TENET's links.
 
Some international is working for me but most just times out, starting to consider other isp's atm :whistle:

AFAIK Google is cached on TENET, so that tracert may not be representative.

The primary TENET-SEACOM graph has been dead since 5.30am:

Seems this has changed. More route tweaking, likely.

MWEB -> London is now up, as hop #8 is registered to LINX (London Internet Exchange).
 
My guess is that traffic may be going via another cable such as SEA-ME-WE-3 (which only has 25% of the capacity). This would explain the severe congestion...
 
Wonder whose trying to hijack that Seacom cable again?
