Telkom Internet Capped/Uncapped User Feedback (Pt2)

PMB and on dsl. Same here thing here. Just happened again about 5 minutes ago.

It's more like about two minutes. I just suddenly get kicked off whatever I'm playing and see that nothing else internet related works. Line doesn't lose sync or anything, everything just stops working for a few minutes.
Yip, still experiencing this, PPPoE session stays up, DSL Line stays Synced.
But all traffic stalls, then starts passing again.

LTE has the same problem, full signal, no drop on PPP connection, traffic just stalls.

It happens on both DSL and LTE at the exact same time.
 
Not sure wtf is going on. Had about 20 minutes of this just now. It came right again, but there's a crapload of jitter.
 
Some piece of hardward must be faultly on the Telkom Internet side after IPC.
Mweb and Afrihost accounts don't have this problem, which means the ME and DSL network is fine
 
Has anyone else noticed random drops for a few seconds every few hours, on both DSL and LTE?
Seems to happen at the exact same time across both.
This is in KZN.

Same here on Fibre TElkom as isp and in Pretoria area

You're right. On DSL too. Speedtests to local servers are quite crappy, but completely fails when trying American or European servers. Something is definitely broken.

EDIT: and now its suddenly fine again

Anyone in KZN noticing adsl dropping with Telkom? Sometimes several hours a day it's 404.
 
Again, no internet this morning, went off at 5am came back at 7am.
Drops are starting to get longer and longer.
Could not use DSL or LTE.
But Mweb account worked fine on DSL.
