Vuma Areal, West Rand/Roodepoort.
Thanks. Can you run a MTR to check for any obvious packet loss? Accelerator has also been back online since about 1pm (yesterday’s upgrade took a bit longer than hoped) - so should be smooth sailing, even with packet loss. Tried other streams as well?

@websquadza I’m starting to get huge buffering issues again. What’s happening here man? Nothing has changed on my side. What have you fiddled with? Whatever you did please undo it.

Edit: Ok I think it's better now.

I have a major issue, can't sign into Microsoft sites or access microsoft.com and my Xbox won't even sign into my Xbox Live account, happening since yesterday and can't resolve it. Something is seriously wrong

Buffering on streaming sites as well

No issues this side. Microsoft sites loading just fine. Check for packet loss- likely Evotel doing something weird, and submit a ticket. Just a reminder that Evotel don’t work Sundays.

I've already logged a ticket, the issue doesn't exist if I use 3G which points to my connection. This is a major problem for me as I work from home and rely on Outlook and Teams to work....

If the issue is isolated to you- it’s likely FNO/last mile related. Please send a MTR on to support to confirm.

So I think I found something that might be causing the issue, IPV6. I disabled IPV6 on my desktop and left only IPV4 and Microsoft page loads, as soon as I enable IPV6 stops loaded to the Microsoft website. On my wifi devices i.e. Xbox I cannot disable IPV6 so I have the problem on the console and phones etc. over wifi. Any ideas?

Could be that your delegated prefix has changed but your router is still holding onto the previous one. Try disabling IPv6 on your router and let me know if that helps?

Just asked the team to bump your v6 delegation. Please reboot your router - should work now.

Ok, tried rebooting router, still the same issue. Switched off IPV6 in the router and all of a sudden all works like butter on all devices

Good to know. Will investigate what it could be. You’re using the Tenda AC8?
