Vodacom problems frustrate users
Vodacom subscribers have been complaining about connectivity problems in various regions, with the complaints reaching a peak late yesterday and early today.
Vodacom informed MyADSL that they have been experiencing problems with their data services countrywide, caused by an authentication issue on their side.
According to Vodacom the problem has been solved as of around midday today, and the mobile provider said that they do not expect users to experience any further downtime due to this issue.
The reason for the problem is associated with the deployment and testing of new services and technologies on the Vodacom network.
“We’re busy deploying new technology on the network, to provide some new products and it caused instability. They’ve now rolled back so everything should be stable again,” a Vodacom spokesperson said.
