Either that or JumboNet gateway..

How would you know for sure?

I am a KDN client, they have assured me of no DOWNTIME. See below.

"Our circuits on TEAMS are predominantly going towards singapore/Mumbai with PCCW Global and hence will not be affected."

@Sospeter...I doubt if it would be as easy. "During the maintenance the ship has to locate the cable, make the adjustment and drop it back into sea.",and that is just a tip of the iceberg!

I've gotten a similar notice from our provider. They say they'll arrange for a re-route though we should expect to get slower speeds.

I guess that means traffic is back on jumboNet Gateway right?

If I were a Somali pirate I would hijack a piece of fiber cable and demand a ransom or threaten to cut it.(:-)=)

Any one else got this notice? ---

*Subject:* FW: Fault on Major International Gateway

Dear Client,

We’ve received communication from our backbone providers, *TEAMS* and*Seacom *, that there currently is a fault with the *South East Asia-Middle-West Europe 4* *(SMW4)* cable used to connect our internet communication into Europe, North and South America (SMW4) between Alexandria & Marseilles.

This requires urgent maintenance by SMW4 consortium to be carried out *between 24th *April 2010* and 28th *April 2010 During the maintenance the ship has to locate the cable, make the adjustment and drop it back into sea. As all ship related work is highly dependent on the environment (Wind, Rain, Snow etc.) there may be deviation from the above planned maintenance window.

*Map of SEA-ME-WE-4 Fibre Undersea Cable*

Throughout this exercise, there will be disruption of *Internet traffic for the entire East Africa region*.

Please find below the details of the maintenance exercise:

*Date:* Saturday 24th April to Wednesday 28th April 2010

*Time:* 0700 UTC/GMT *1000hrs (Local time)*

*Service Outage:* Significantly slow speeds and latencies during the entire maintenance period _______________________________________________ Skunkworks mailing list Skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke http://lists.my.co.ke/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/skunkworks ------------ Skunkworks Server donations spreadsheet
