For the third time in three months, a cable fault on the Southern Cross cable is causing slow speeds for Australian broadband users.

ISPs affected include Optus, Westnet, iiNet and Internode, with users reporting slow speeds and timeouts from international sites.

According to reports from ISPs, the fault lies in Calfornia and involves a faulty line card. It was initially thought the repair would take a few hours, but the latest reports indicate the repair may be some time away yet.

The frequency of these outages and the resulting impact has highlighted the issue of network redundancy, with some ISPs able to cope better than others.
