Being optimistic here, but does anyone have an idea of when the Bryanston Exchange issue will be sorted?

It has been dead from Tuesday afternoon 17:00 - the only response I am getting is that Telkom is attending to the problem... and this does not help me at all.

Hoping that someone here has friends who has friends that might have an indication on how long this problem is going to take to resolve.

Been having a bad month regarding ADSL. If it is not dead DSL - the ftp and nttp traffic gets shaped to hell and back.

Cheers in advance
 
i heard somewhere that it should be fixed tomorrow. have also been affected by it, you soon realise when you do not have internet access just how much you use it. feel lost without it!
 
Called Telkom for support??? They need the support

I also live in Bryanston and I called Telkom twice yesterday (mid-afternoon and again last night) to investigate my ADSL connection issues and not once did the person(s) I spoke with mention anything about the exchange in Bryanston having problems.

I mean, surely they would know that my issue is a symptom of this 'known' issue and that they'd have the sense to realize that no amount of re-creating my port nor adjusting the sync speed on the self same 'problematic' exchange was going to help. :mad:

C'mon Telkom, pull yourselves towards yourselves and provide some tangible service here! :(
 
I have been calling them every 2 hours... frustrating the hell out of me.

See the cellular-guys is also ***ing off now (Voda and MTN affected afaik). How long till my 3G dies? Guess I can grap a book and watch money run down the drain soon as being connected is a big part of my job.

Wish I could bring these okes to book somehow... grrrr.

Good luck guys - seriously I feel your pain
 
BTW I'm located just down the road from the Mountain Bike park (C/O Sloan and Libertas road)... just in case you were wondering if we might be on the same exchange.
 
i am by peter place shops. i too called telkom yesterday who said nothing about problems at the exchange. i then rang mweb who informed me of the problem, but they had no timescale for it being fixed. i gotthe date of tomorrow through someone else. they are not connected to telkom, so it might just be wishful thinking!
 
Thanks simonbee... wishful thinking is better than what I have been getting from anyone at Telkom so I'll cling onto that dream.

Keep me posted.
 
Quick update;

Got home, flicked on the router and to my surprise to see that I am back on.
