Telephone support mentioned something to do with Microwave links... working hard to fix it and no commitment on when it will be up again.
Considering that this happened on Friday evening after business hours one may be forgiven to think this was a planned outage. One may then doubt one's conclusion thinking they would have let us know... haha!
The sad thing is that this is the second time the microwave's been down in less than a week... This outage affected the whole of JHB and Pretoria ....
Thankfully, with everyone having been offline - those of us connecting now have NICE speeds ;-) ... damn wish they'd all stay offline till monday - need to fetch the latest knoppix cd ;-)
Now that is what I expect as a minimum from a 128k
Back to sleep to dream some more

Finished my 750g Ricoffy, cut a hole in it, stuck it to the modem; 3 lights and 42% BER! []
For the first time since I got myWireless, I am seeing full speeds - I've been maxing 31K since about 01:30 (doing iso downloads). So, it seems I finally have my turn at the speed token.
