International seems deadish or superslow. Can't log on league either. Strangly my skype call with someone is still holding when it happened. Anyone else having problems?

Yes, also with MWEB
International is dead in the water... yet again...
Getting quite tired of it now!

I'd throw a speedtest in there too, but I can't get the site to load.

So yeah, ****s dead son.
 
Again... down at least once every f(*&)(*^)ing week.
Time to really put some effort into finding an ISP that is NOT on Seacom.
 
Also for me in Pinetown, international is baaaaad. Also can barely load local websites. It has been like this for a few days now, always from morning to afternoon I can forget browsing. Please fix it or prepare to receive a cancellation letter as the performance is becoming laughable now.
 
Telkom seemed to have fixed whatever was wrong, but I still get horrible international. Local is fine, international is dead.

at least this time mweb posted a reference to their notices page.

Jitte, we should put up a thread counting the Seacom downtimes.

How do they stay in business with all these breakages and downtimes?
 
Hi everybody.

We are currently investigating the slow international browsing and as soon as I receive more information, I will provide an update.
