Anyone else in KZN having issues? Can't even ping anything outside KZN right now. Only traffic within like a 50Km radius is going through

Haha i just came to complain too, YouTube was just working awful as hell but it seems better now

Really slow connections to all Google services in KZN today

DNS server failure: 196.43.54.190 Telkom seem unable to troubleshoot this on 10210

Issues seems to be in Durban https://downdetector.co.za/status/google/map/

I have no connectivity at all. Router reports line is synced and the account is authenticated, but there's no internet. PMB

Oddly enough I can post here from tapatalk, but nothing else works. Can't even get Google's home page to load.

Absolutely broken here in Kzn again, every start/end month is like this here, this will be the last time I report a fault and if it happens again will be jumping ship.

This weekend and now again it is so choppy. Odd thing is some elements work and not others. Like on YouTube, the video plays but all the text and elements around it are blank. Twitter and even the Telkom website do not work. Mybb seems to be working fine.

How on earth is that possible?

You guys at trelkrom are the best!

Exactly my experience at this time. Last couple of months its an on and off issue especially at night from around 18:00.

Facebook for example might load some elements and others are missing. Do a speed test thereafter and the ping is low at 5ms and 20mbps. Video quality of streaming is up and down and p2p generally perform quite well.

Something isn't right you guys! it feels as if I'm being shaped starting from 6pm, 7pm for streaming only

Is this just me or everyone else is facing this issue?
Is telkom quietly restricting us?

I've got the opposite. Streaming works fine even at 1080p, but everything else feels shaped into the ground
