Does SAIX International suck for anyone else? It's slower than gprs and believe me I used gprs for near to a month, pathetic, back to adsl woe's here we go :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:
 
Snorrie, moenie met my sukkel nie, ek gaan jou 'n oorvee gee :(
 
There will be problems.
There has been a problem with International since the 26th December. It was because of the earthquake that hit Asia.
It damaged some undersea cables, which affects links between New York and Hong Kong. A lot of countries in Asia especially are crippled because of this. :(

IIRC, repair of this break is estimated to be in the 3rd week of January.
They sent out a ship to go and do the repairs but in turn the ship had a problem and had to turn back, hence the additional 1 week delay. (Repair was supposed to be complete 2nd week of January)

Problem Description : New York - Links down between New York and Hong Kong Impact : Slow International Connectivity Time Down : 26 Dec, 2006 at 19:30:00 (SAT) Time Up : None Sites : New York Services Affected : International Update Description : Our International Provider is still attending to the cable breaks
 
Mine has been extremely slow even over the weekend...I can now clearly see why Telkom is hesitant to publish their International contention ratio - Probably 100:1 :D

Proff
 
Thanks for the feedback, thanks so much lilDeath, the site I'm struggling with is hosted in New York, and some other sites are slow, but the NY one I frequent is way slow ;)

Much appreciated :p
 
Im not quite sure if this is related so dont shoot me if it isn't:p

Has anyone else been having problems with certain international websites for the last few months?
I have ADSL384 at home (unshaped with axxess) and I have ADSL4MB at work with a different ISP(not sure) and when I try and access the wesites from EITHER connection Im getting gateway timeouts and extremely slow page loading.
The reason why i think it is specifically an ADSL issue is because when I use my phone's gprs to connect to the same websites it is about 3x faster and I get no timeouts?
It initially worked on both connections and then one day it just stopped, anyone else experience this or know whats wrong?
Thanx in advance for any help:)

BANG BANG BANG!! :D :D

Get timeouts here and there but not too much...
 
Its not really widespread.
The problem is its the specific website and I go there at least twice a day...so I have to use my cellphone twice a day to connect:(
