Why is my gmail working then, normally we can't get in?

I sent 2 emails off but have not heard back from the people but am getting emails in ok.
 
Will this affect their 8ta clients as well?

Just had a call from someone who cannot connect at all this morning.
 
I live in a town in the Free State. We have not had a stable ADSL connection since the 27 of September 2012. We have experienced that it does work during the night at stages, but during the day we have little to none internet connection. I do receive some e-mails & Skype also seems to work. We rely on the internet for work purposes and it has become duly frustrating. I have heard rumors of people struggling all over SA aswell. Guess we are going back to the primative ages...

Oops, major fail on TI. I dug out my 1GB free Afrihost account, no problems on international there...

Yeah afrihost uses IS as a back bone it will work. its only user's on SAIX backbone will have trouble.
 
i'll put it down to the higher speed connections being phased in at the moment. They've probably broken an old line to connect a new one. Probably a lot of wires and stuff and there are bound to be teething problems. i'll look at conspiracy theories when it takes more than a day to sort out.
 
This is probably the reason.

My monitoring of international sites picked this up at just about 04h10 this morning.

There is a SAIX notice regarding the outage too.

Note, it is not all international traffic that is affected, but HTTP and some P2P is affected.

Non-HTTP non-P2P should be working.
 
The outage began at around the same time of "Software - Planned maintenance to be perform on SAIX Caching Service." at rosebank exchange. its probably this that is causing the issue.
