Rain is down

[backstreetboy]

The entire week I had slow speed in Sunnyside, Pretoria. We can get 5G coverage but have not applied yet.
At the expense of sounding like a conspiracy theorist would Rain throttle 4G in an effort to force one to switch to 5G

Damn I'll switch in a heartbeat. Will even take up a 4g uncapped service from them for R1k (Telkom Uncapped LTE is only R100 cheaper anyway). Not sure why it hasn't happened yet. Their CEO should be fired.

Rain currently down for me. Rebooted router, still nothing. Anyone else?

Yes my 5G is down too.

 

[Grouter]

Down here, southern Cape.

 

[kabusi]

Yes me too.

 

[oradba69]

And back up.

 

[cavedog]

And back up.

Yes we are back

Ditto. Thank goodness I have a wisp backup. Soon it will be my primary internet. I foresee rain here going to S%$t when all the holidaymakers come and swamp our one and only cell tower.

Its already like that now. No stability whatsoever.

Yes I am back to resorting to downloading my media where possible as streaming is the most painful experience ever.
This helps with the peak period data limits too.
At least I have something to watch during that time without getting another contract.
But it's like we back to the dark ages.
Rain support doesn't even respond to logged requests anymore if you are on 4G.

Call me an old f@rt, but I never got on the streaming train, so peak period data not important for me. Sonarr, SABNZBD & Kodi FTW!

[Dan C]

Re-booted, back now

 

[KamikaZe_88]

wtf mine still down. rebooted multiple times, was working fine last night. I have to use rain cause cool ideas having another ddos attack, and no I have not reached my cap, used 400MB/10GB

 

[kabusi]

mine went down again just now. Had to reboot since there was a red light on the router.

 

[KamikaZe_88]

Mine was working for a few minutes, then dead again. What the hell is going on? are they also getting ddos'ed?

It feels like every hour, on the hour the connection goes offline for about 10 minutes and then comes back again. This is annoying!

Mother-in-law had some choice words about rain downtime today. Not repeatable on a public forum...
