Just wrote another message. I have the same problem

 

[KERU]

Google and most of the other international sites are not accessible
In fact I can only search using search.msn.com and going to the cached results.

Same problem here, maybe some irate MCI investor hacked through the SAT-3 cable.

Hardly a freakin week goes by without something breaking. Telkom sucks, and SA ADSL is a bloody joke.

Usual snafu for me too...

 

[telkomsuig]

What I don't get is why there is no redundency on the saix ADSL network. Especially with SAT3 only being half used anyway....

 

[guest2013-1]

i time out all the time, its a pity that they dont have more redundancy built in, the bastards

 

[jjtoymachine]

no international my side!
