About half an hour ago, we lost access to the international Internet for reasons as yet unknown.
You will likely experience this outage as an ERR_DNS_FAIL or ERR_CONNECT_FAIL error when trying to access websites hosted outside South Africa (even those ending in .za). When accessing secure (https://) web sites, your browser may report that the connection has timed out or the site is unreachable.
The issue was reported to TENET's service desk shortly after it happened.
