Was just thinking yesterday that my uncapped Mweb account has been super fast lately. Hope the new WACS cable will provide some redundancy for SEACOM.

Mweb uses Seacom as its main supplier.

looks more like a DNS problem.

Hi All

We are currently experiencing an international bandwidth outage and are operating on failover capacity so you will experience slow and potentially intermittent browsing on international sites and other international services will be affected. Our engineers are working urgently to isolate the cause and we will update you on the situation as soon as possible.

That message does not (yet) appear on the Cape Town version of the MWeb Network Notices page, which is a mirror of the Jhb site:
http://www.mweb.co.za/helpcentre/NetworkStatus/tabid/1765/Default.aspx

The problem was first reported on the other Mweb thread just after 9.30am:

Down/slow for 1.5 hours so far...
