The Optus hamster finally died of old age.

I would suggest your SMS issues would be caused by whoever is issuing
the SMS using Optus - not so much by the Telstra end receiving it.

Anecdotally, Optus enterprise/wholesale appears to be still functional
- at least my link appears to be working fine - and my BGP
advertisements are still being seen overseas - seems to be only NBN
and mobile based services which are busted
