SEACOM is Down.... AGAIN

:( pfft finaly have a bit of time to play Black Prophecy online and international decides to act up lol.
 
Hi Everyone

We are aware of the problem and our failover routes via SAT-3 have kicked in, we'll post an update as soon as we get some confirmation as to the nature of the Seacom outage.
 
Weird, my OpenWeb Uncapped is working fine.

I was having problems earlier on WebAfrica at my Dad's house.
 
Just called wazzup support the seacom is down (again) and they asume that it won't be coming up before 9 pm tonight. Well we will just have to wait and see....

For real? FFS this is becoming extremely annoying. I'm getting off the seacom line, can't take this **** anymore.

Well wazzup and I would asume cybersmrt too has switched all users to local bandwidth. That's why we get the message even though we are on a uncapped scheme. A other error message would have been nice telling you why you are capped even though you don't have a cap. ***LOL***
 
Sigh forcing me to vpn in to work and use their net. At least I have international access again.

Cybersmart has gone down. No international at all.

lounger do you get the "no access" orange stop sign thing telling you to pay per mb as well? @smokey_sa are you on cybersmart? also getting the capextender message?

i'd rather it just didn't load rather than giving me a confusing message completely unrelated to the actual problem -.-

@ Fresh No I'm on wazzup but it's the same thing so yes I'm getting the same message... Afrihost seems to be down completely too, so nothing to so than wait and do some windows updates which are working ...

No it didn't but even the support line was confused by the message...
I wonder whether the tekkies will be able to get to the problem tonight due to the trouble they are having in egypt so I will not be holding my breath...

yeah i place no faith in cybersmart support o.O they tell me with absolute certainty it's telkoms problem when it's my router and things like that *sigh* -.- local interwebs are already getting boring D: at least i can get to take2... maybe i'll order a game o.O (just not anything that needs activation lulz)
 
There has been a Seacom cable break, traffic has been partially restored and we are using alternate routes as required.

Kind regards
