Was down on June 1, 2009 and on June 5-6, 2009. At least on June 1, 2009 it was less than a day (maybe about 12 hours). On June 5- 6, 2009 called them 6 times over a 24 hour period. Another case has bothered us for the past 4 days - no connectivity at all. The engineer based on that route said they do not work on Saturdays. He lied the whole of Friday that he would go as he also did today. A more reliable engineer who used to be on that route will be deployed there tomorrow morning. It will be 5 whole days without connectivity if they do not do something about it tomorrow. On Mon, Jun 29, 2009 at 10:25 PM, Gakuru Alex <alexgakuru.lists@gmail.com>wrote:
Folks,
It's always been very difficult, if not impossible, to convince someone how much 'down' one has been if their flat rate Internet has NOT been connecting... But some good news...
Linux users can review *all* their failed Internet connection attempts, and all other computer activities log. Serves as quite some incriminating evidence - both ways (e.g. if been visiting ...movie sites...) because every IP address visited is logged as well... and since e-evidence is now legal courtesy of KCA, 2008.
If you run Ubuntu( Linux) Operating System, have a have a look at your current /var/log/messages file. Once the file gets large it's archived and a new small one created. An e-record of all failed Internet connections/downtime register now exists.
Poor Internet Services Providers chungeni. Sasa ni kubaya sana!
