I see it....

"World's Toughest Fixes" on National Geographic Channel. Episode 704: SEACOM

"Adrenaline junkie and engineering enthusiast Sean Riley helps experts as they take on repairs of enormous proportions in World's Toughest Fixes on National Geographic Channel. In this episode he saves the mighty SEACOM cable. Living off nothing but oily sardines and fighting intense sea-sickness, our adventurer travels by ship on its way to haul the cable off the ocean floor and repair it."

Local is starting to get irritating.

Loving the "this isn't Mweb's fault" posts. It must be a happy little world you guys live in.

Facebook is local now.

Hey we can't access the outside world. What's left to do? We should make like the Americans and have a Troll Poking World Championships - except only South Africans compete.

Ha, nice! That just fills me with confidence.

International is back up (or at least some Google page are, which were not accessible earlier).

Caching servers most likely.

 

[Smiley_lauf]

change your login. Remove the "dsl" part.

Gmail working fine--but international is extremely slow--thanks

 

[SabreWolfy]

Caching servers most likely.

Possibly, although I don't know why it was not working earlier then. Either way, it's slow and erratic.

And is down again.

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Hmmm? Seems the test of your message was lost due to the bandwidth shortage ...

And is down again.

Cheer up, when you pay your full months internet subscription after geting a few gigs in at the end of the month you'd forget this ever happened.

*Blink* Thanks. Your maturity and compassio... no, no, don't feed them! Seriously, what's WRONG with you?

Dear MWEB Customer
Please note that with immediate effect the interim international capacity that we obtained from SAIX has been significantly reduced due to constraints on their own network. Most customers will not have access to international bandwidth at this point in time. Access to local web sites, Internet banking and e-mail will continue as per normal. We are urgently trying to secure alternative international capacity and we will keep you updated of any developments in this regard.

We apologise for any inconvenience that this may be causing you and thank you for your patience.

Kind regards
MWEB Operations

Just landed in my inbox from MWEB, eish wena!

 

[Seeyou]

Well, I guess Mweb's finally lived up to their assertion that Uncapped is for people who don't actually need to use the Internet.

 

[mR Yellow]

This is pathetic.
