Hi

Is it just me or is there a sudden increase in browsing speed this afternoon?
I feel pages are loading way faster than they were previously local and international.
I’m IS backbone, I see Telkom just stated that the maintenance on the SAT3 cable has just been completed,
Is it this? I noticed the speeds before the finally notification tho.
Has anybody else noticed this?

Regards
Keegan
 
Hi Keegan, when did the maintenance start btw? Thanks.
 
Notice Ref : NN0009337
Failure Type : Planned Work
Status : Cleared
Problem Description : Link - Further planned maintenance on its undersea cables will be carried out this coming weekend and Telkom is again confident that its innovative network design will automatically reroute traffic, resulting in little to no impact to its customers.

The planned maintenance will begin at 22:00 pm on Friday, 19 October and will be completed by latest 06:00 am on Saturday, 20 October.

Telkom cautions of possible increased latency during 10:00pm on Friday and 1:00 am on Saturday due to the normal high levels of traffic during this time period.

However Telkom is confident that its network?s self-healing capabilities and automatic traffic rerouting ability will keep any impact to a minimum.

Telkom wishes to thank customers for their patience during this time.
