i damn piss since late dec till today

Internet services in Qatar have been restored to full capacity following damage caused to three undersea cables last month, telecommunications operator Qatar Telecom (Qtel) announced on Monday.

In a report on the issue, the provider said safety measures it introduced in 2008 helped ensure disruption from the breach was kept to a minimum.

Internet services were disrupted on December 19 when damage was caused to three undersea cables located in the Mediterranean between Sicily and Tunisia, which are estimated to carry 75 percent of traffic between the Middle East, Europe and America.

But loss of capacity in Qatar was kept below 47 percent, Qtel said, because its network of alternative transmission routes and back-up cables ensured that Qatar remained connected. It said Qtel’s built-in safety margin of 20 percent spare capacity ensured the traffic impact overall was less than 27 percent.

During 2008 Qtel said it positioned itself so that there was an even split between data sent via Western-running cables, such as the affected cables in the Mediterranean, and via Eastern-running cables, through Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan.

The firm said this meant it was able to begin routing all data via the Eastern-running cables within six hours of the first break being reported.

In addition, Qtel maintained regular contact with the team
responsible for the cable ship charged with repairing the breach.

The first cable, Sea Me We 4, which carries a significant volume of data for Qatar, was repaired by France Télécom on December 25, restoring 70 percent of potential capacity to Qatar. The cable broke again in a different location on the same day, offshore from Alexandria, Egypt, and the team had to travel to repair the new break.

The second cable, FLAG, was fixed on December 31, restoring 81 percent of capacity to Qatar, while the second breach on Sea Me We 4 was repaired on January 4, restoring Qatar to 100 percent internet capacity.

The third and final cable, Sea Me We 3, was reported as being repaired on Monday, although this cable does not carry any data for Qatar.

PMFJI. While the cable may have been fixed, it seems TM has not yet re-routed back traffic to the "normal" routes as per before. Some US routes are still going through HK etc which causes lag.

If this is what they call as SELESAI....I think TM did something during this period...

cause I am having the same problem like a few of you here....certain IPs...works ok with certain international servers but not others and vice versa...

that means if i want to download a file from that server...i have to change ip...and i notice that i cant simply change ips...cause there is a time ban....ie lost signal from TM...due to the sudden ips change...>.<

the old ips before the cable problem...no longer good...for me T___T

Connection seems 'fine' now. I can access last.fm for some bossa nova tune.

THOUGH ACCESSING TO AO IS STILL f***ING SLOW AND GETTING DC!

And TM has not bothered to update the announcement on their website since it was posted on 20 Dec 2008. Even when the estimated completion was delayed from 31 Dec 2008 to 04 Jan 2009, there was no update on the website. One would think they would have the latest updates on their website for their Internet customers.

still the same =.=
i could dled in 150kb the whole darn year and after the mid of dec
everything snapped and dl goes up to 15kb is already a bless

I bet those baboons are flinging poo at each other to decide how to reroute the connection now...

That's why they are still flinging poos at us you know.

Think they are going to announce the connection will be fully restored before CNY.

Riot! Start the riot!
