Telkom ADSL exchange and network problems: Your help needed

TheVeteran · Mar 25, 2017

Hi,

Having the same disconnection problems.
I am on a 20mb adsl line. Been on it for 4+ months with no problems with 18mb down and 0.8-1.0 up with 30ms local ping.
The last weeks has been hell for me. 50+ disconnects during the day. Line sync drops from 20mb to 9 and in between. I logged a fault,they say I'm too far from the exchange.
The problem is,my line was fine before at 20mb. What changed during the last month? Can't seem to get an answer from anyone.
No fibre in my area unfortunately.

Could anyone help out or maybe know what's the issue?

Thanks

Walmer Port Elizabeth frequent cut off of ADSL from the Adams Road exchange 041367 added to shocking speeds. My 10 Mbps line is only downloading at < 6. That's when it's operational. this started yesterday and has been at it all day today. Sent a PM to TelkomZA.

Been experiencing extreme latency, especially in the evenings.
Morning line good, 10ms latency / download 3.6 Mbps
From 6pm steadily degrading. Latency 300ms+ and download max .5 Mbps

Phone number (021 856)
ADSL line speed 4Mbps
ISP's capped Telkom + Afrihost + WebAfrica (all ISP accounts give similar problems, also tried Telkom guest account)
Line starts seriously degrading from 4pm. 8pm almost unusable until midnight when latency starts to improve again.

Hi, I seem to have issues with my adsl from 5PM every night till 8AM every morning. Then Link just drops and re-syncs at at lower speed. The link will then drop every 15sec with the internet being unusable. I have logged multiple calls with Telkom and they just close the calls with no real fix.

My Link sync speed in the day is 10239 kbps DownStream and 1023 kbps Upstream. This change after 5pm to anything from 2mbps to 9mbps.

I have changed out my router and ISP to assist with this issue but line issue still present.

The line tested at *5.768 (AEC-Message Metallic Noice) and im 2.729meters from the exchange.
Im on DSLAM PANORAMA MSAN5 Port3 Slot number 8

The following Ref numbers was logged with telkom in the past 5 days.

* 736CRK150617
* 427 CRK 230617
* 602 CRK 260617 (ACTIVE)

About three years ago when living in Somerset West (Golden Acre) and when there was still a local Telkom office I had the same problems. After a bit of effort showing them packet loss and tracert printouts they eventually moved me to a Stellenbosch exchange.

My Link sync speed in the day is 10239 kbps DownStream and 1023 kbps Upstream. This change after 5pm to anything from 2mbps to 9mbps.

I have changed out my router and ISP to assist with this issue but line issue still present.

The line tested at *5.768 (AEC-Message Metallic Noice) and im 2.729meters from the exchange.
Im on DSLAM PANORAMA MSAN5 Port3 Slot number 8

The following Ref numbers was logged with telkom in the past 5 days.

* 736CRK150617
* 427 CRK 230617
* 602 CRK 260617 (ACTIVE)

You didn't post line stats. If I remember correctly, sections of Panorama were upgraded a while ago, others are still on the old exchanges.
Have you tried swapping out the modem, plugging in the modem directly into the wall with all devices disconnected from the telephone sockets? Are those pings on Wireless or using Ethernet?

EDIT:

The line tested at *5.768 (AEC-Message Metallic Noice) and im 2.729meters from the exchange.

Noise I assume?
If I look at previous threads: https://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php/491944-Telkom-line-drops-with-bad-weather
It's probable that your line is exposed to the elements somewhere. What's your SNR? Do you have background noise noise when making a call?

Anyone battling on certain sites on Telkom?

I've never seen ping so low (19ms) and speed tests indicate fantastic speeds - but sites like www.netflix.com , http://www.avforums.co.za/ or evendownforeveryoneorjustme.com are down.

Other sites are quick!

Certain international sites went down for me too at around 14:02 today (Uncapped LTE, but could be the same as what you are experiencing)

Mine also went down about that time, was in an overwatch game, using the freeme data bundles on a sim. currently chatting with a telkom rep, will update if he says anything valuable.

Coolio. I was in Path of Exile and it dropped...hopefully I didn't lose too much loot

Where are you based by the way? I'm in Bellville region/western-cape. But then again, might just be another seacom cable or some ****, I dunno.

Aight, so chat agent couldn't confirm whether there are any problems currently (spoilers, there is) as they haven't received any word, but it's been escalated and they'll call me back as soon as they can confirm.

Northern Subs, many sites giving DNS issues and intermittent access even to those.

Adsl and LTE

Herr_Koos · Jul 22, 2017

Can confirm, something is seriously broken. No international sites are responding.
