About 15 minutes ago we lost access to most of the Internet as a result of a problem affecting SANReN's Port Elizabeth point of presence.
You will likely experience this outage as an ERR_DNS_FAIL or ERR_CONNECT_FAIL error when trying to access websites. When accessing secure (https://) web sites, your browser may report that the connection has timed out or the site is unreachable. Sites that are directly connected to SANReN's PE pop are still reachable.
The problem has been reported to TENET's service desk.
