6pm Friday a different port is cutover. Slowness has now disappeared. HaleNET would like to advise customers that the following Fault report has been received from Telstra today. This would explain why there has been degraded network performance over the last couple of days, from time to time. There was an intermittent circuit problem which progressively worsened.
Services are on a backup circuit now.
A further routing problem occurred and was resolved. Telstra staff are working with USA suppliers to restore service. This is affecting every router in northern NSW including the Lismore router we go through. We go via Lismore because it is a shorter distance and involves going through less routers to get to the international gateway. This makes it faster.
