Question of the Day: Oldest working tech or appliance in your house that you refuse to replace?
*READ FIRST* iBurst Network Status & Issues (DNS, Throughput and Latency)

Yes, worth the effort to be down while everyone else have alternative routes! You proved your point - since the peering changes in December there've been more issues than any other similar period of time in the iBurst history!

Then why is MTN / Vodacom / etc working like clockwork?

This really cracked me up.
A bit like someone saying to a blind person: "Look, it says so on this flyer."
Because iBurst decided to choose peering provider without alternative routes. It's not a failure of the iBurst technology but a failure of management decisions at iBurst.

To quote Team America, "That was bad i.n.t.e.l.l.i.g.e.n.c.e. Very bad i.n.t.e.l.l.i.g.e.n.c.e."

Still can't log onto Rift or Aion. F.U.C.K.
Pretty please (with a cherry on top) sort this out. I'm getting highly annoyed here. Been 2 days and no word on the problem.

International outage 20th February 2011
Apologies for the international incident this morning. The SEA-ME-WE-3 cable experienced and outage 5 clicks off Alexandria in Egypt. This resulted in an outage on the east coast route. Our systems are configured to automatically fail-over and pick up traffic on the west coast. However, the cable operator placed a loop on the east coast cable which created a problem with our fail-over.
We dispatched a techie to London Telehouse to resolve the loop.
Going forward we will implement G.8032 to prevent loops from cable operators causing problems.

WoW latency is still not fine, at about 3000ms which makes it unplayable, any body else still having issues?
