Does anyone know which IP range; will place your traffic on the Verizon network?

A week ago it was the 196.46.64.xxx IP’s - noticed the IP’s have been shuffled around again.

Edit: OK, it seems it is back on 196.46.64.xxx

Many thanks

Ja, thats the one you want to try and be on :D

However today they had some SAIX peering problems, so those IP's were terrible..
 
I'd like to get any IP that gives me decent speed. Lost speed since yesterday
 
What would the best IP be in Pretoria. Sorry if has been posted before, but i did a search and only found a general IP for Joburg. Is there a verizon IP for PTA. What would the DNS be? Is the Verizon more reliable and/or faster?

Never seen download speed above 70KB/s (any time of day). Or should I be satisfied with that:)

Thanks!
 
You should be able to double 70KB/s, depending on your signal, tower load, MTU, Win XP configuration, etc.

As for IP's up North, sorry can't help - it is a trail by error process. I suggest you use your router to change your IP or search the forum for a script that was written by Seburn to change your IP manually and do a ping test to google.com - if it delivers an IP of 64.XXX.XXX.XXX you are on IS - The 72.XXX.XXX.XXX is generally via the Verizon infrastructure in Cape Town.

Another way to verify this is by changing your IP and having a look at the latency - generally the latency is much lower on the Verizon network than that of IS.

Best to do these tests after hours when the Network is not congested and when none of the service providers are experiencing any issues on their networks, as this will influence the outcome of the results.

Hope this helps.
