MWEB - Network status

[MWEBHelp]

We have lost one of our international links. In order to mantain a decent service to priority traffic we have disabled File Sharing for now. As soon as the link is back up and stable we'll open up file sharing again.

Kind regards

Regular as clockwork.

Mweb, could we please have someone investigate the possibility of allowing gaming traffic through on the redundant links. By all means slow the p2p and file-sharing but simple things like steam, ea game authentication don't eat large amounts of bandwidth and I'm positive you can priorities that traffic, especially as you would know the transmitting port and destination url.

This would go a long way to making your clients ecstatic.

Have Neotel broken stuff again?

I personally am not unhappy at all, when someone actually makes the effort to tell us, instead of the usual bs from telkom etc...

"Its your line sir.."
"Can i call you back sir?" (then they dont call)

thanks again!

The SEACOM traffic graph looks fine, so it must be a terrestrial link:

Thanks for letting us know. Although a bummer, I am glad not to be left in the dark. Here's to hoping it will get solved soon.
