Slow Internet

[Globetrotter]

Same here, everything is crawling on SAIX. I can't even log in on the SAIX noticeboard site, the guest account doesn't seem to work anymore.

serious issues here as well - Kenilworth - 4mb line, and i need to demo some software to some people in UK.... GREAT!!!

Local sites (including this one) are dead slow, sometimes timing out... but international is as fast as ever.

Spoke to axxess now.

They say there is a major problem on the whole telkom network!

Slow all over the place for me (local) - keep on pinging out on IRC and local sites takes forever to load. FF threw a 'Server not found' error for myadsl.co.za for me a few minutes ago as well...

(SAIX)

 

[AntiThesis]

Seems like peering links between Saix and IS are having issues.

 

[Globetrotter]

Everything seems to be up again. For me anyway.

Can anyone log on successfully at http://www.noticeboard.saix.net/ with a guest account? guest/guest doesn't work anymore.

 

[Crabby]

Well I have no problem getting to local sites, but I have yet to go international today.

That may just be my work firewall though. I will try things at home and see what I get

Nope - you never even needed that guest/guest in any case - used to work with just *blank*/*blank* as well.

Now would be the perfect time for Neotel to be around. We should be able to switch over to using them. Oh wait...we can't...

 

[davidpey]

all is back to normal for me now

I have a 4Mbps connection International via SAIX and Local via IS.

The past two days my connection has been having some serious speed issues.

Im downloading at 10kb per second now from kfm.co.za for example.. 30kb chached from IS News.

MyADSL and Facebook both take ages to open. Sometimes just times out. Cant be a problem on both the IS and SAIX networks?

haha, 10kb/s is really lucky for me

 

[PyN()XiM]

SAIX and IS still crawling for me *sigh*, 20Kb/s SAIX and 7Kb/s for IS
