I exist only in my own mind ...
Telkom's policy of not spending on infrastruture once again cripples web access.

These are some of the faults in the last few days.

Of concern are:

1. the incidents where the problem just disappears - this seems to happen quite often.

2. the spares holding. One would expect that swap out units are held on site for instant switch over, or am I being too harsh?

3. the affect of the transparent cache.
