Yes I can via my cell phone. My analogue modem is on the telkom line.

Unable to display page.

Ping to several vc sites & external sites, nslookup no response at all.

I can connect but there is no down traffic.

:cool:
 
I'm experiencing multiple 619 errors in Cape Town, 23:15-present, on PPDB.

Update: still down at 08:15 on 2007/09/24.

right woke up this morning. my vlive apn is not working. but i checked mxit on the internet apn and she is working! for how long im not sure. and im in port edward for a few days visiting the family. . . my problems started when i was driving down on saturday morning. lets just hoped you've fixed the bloody thing. being in port edward is enough without being able to mxit or mig.
 
Wierdapark , Centurion 3G still down, only GPRS every now or so.

common VC fix the damn problems!!!
 
i spoke too soon. mig not working. mxit not working. opera mini seems to be the only thing working. what gives?
 
@Vodacom3G: I really think you should check with your technical department. This is not an isolated thing. I think it affects most prepaid users with PPDB. Really unacceptable. haven't been able to get a steady connection on Vodacom the entire weekend.

I have just spoken to 155. They have confirmed that only the PREPAID users are affected. :mad::mad:

Could they not send an sms ??? indicating such.

:cool:
 
PREPAID System problems !!!

Just had a call from a support service guy at VC. The systems are up again. I am posting via the 3G service.

Apparently it was only the prepaid service that was affected. An overload on the back end systems. Can they not seperate the Prepaid Data Users from the Cell Phone users??? or are all the data users just dumped into the same bag as the voice users?

Why can the PPDU not run of the same systems as the CDU ??? that makes more sense, IMHO.

:cool:
 
@Csnoopy, how did you come to the dial up cost of 59,4c per minute?:confused: My reference to the pain threshold - due to the downtime some people may have started to pull their hair out;) I know that the downtime is really irritating but how do you expect them to carry out network upgrades without any downtime? When this process is complete everyone will be all smiles and our part timers on here will just disappear without so much as a thank you to V3g and the behind the scenes techies who had to work over this long weekend to bring better service to VCs 20 million+ subscribers.
 
Been unable to use Vodacom HSDPA for two days - first time I can connect again. VODACOM SUCKS.
