Appalling ADSL for entire region connecting to Xanadu

Hello everyone

Just to let you know, there is collosal problems at the Xanadu exchange. There is very little next to no traffic on the DSLAM. This was the same from the 6th to the 9th of September. And again its down since the 12th.

Telkom ADSL support which is useless as the persons can only ask what is on their screen. They WILL tell you the fault is on your side and will be charged a call-out fee. Fight back and tell them its on the Xanadu exchange and the entire region with the 259 prefix is effected.

I have reason to believe foul play is involved as normally these faults are fixed in 8 hours. Its the entire region. However we looking at 4 days....

AFC UMC1000

UMC1000

The Universal Modular Carrier (UMC) 1000 is a modern and flexible digital loop carrier system. The UMC 1000 is capable of economically serving from as few as six to more than six-hundred subscribers. It utilizes a modular building-block approach, supporting a variety of transmission media to provide service in a wide range of network topologies. The UMC 1000 uses state-of-the-art technologies to provide both traditional and forward-looking subscriber services.

The UMC 1000’s advanced, high-density architecture makes it the ideal loop carrier for current and future applications. The UMC 1000 is perfect for new growth deployments, or for upgrades to existing service in urban, suburban, and rural environments.

The UMC 1000 meets applicable ANSI requirements. The UMC 1000E (also available) meets ETSI/CCITT international requirements. The UMC 1000 is compatible with older electromechanical exchanges as well as the more modern electronic and digital exchanges.

This is what we need. I will soon post pictures of the one on the way to Brits.
