Been reported, didn't help. Too many users, too few towers.
How's your connections running guys? Signal is back to normal, but they are throttling the **** out of us or something. Only time it's usable is between 5pm and 8pm for me. Daytime is bad and using the nightowl is impossible, it disconnects constantly and once connected downloads don't go above 50kb/s... Sigh
Also slow after 7pm Fourways

Yeah I also noticed horrible speeds after about 7pm. Im just behind the Leaping Frog shopping mall. Very good signal, close to 100% but speeds are horrible at some times during the evenings...
I'm experiencing exactly the same, great signal but horrible speeds. Been communicating with 8ta for a while now, apparently a temporary site was meant to go online at Broadacres shopping centre at the end of May but they ran into some complications. Sent another mail today and 8ta replied that they're hopeful of getting the site online within the next month.
Hi Guys
There is no throttling with 8ta. It may just be a bit of congestion which can be resolved if queries are reported and processes are put into motion to get issues like this resolved. We have just sent a follow up email to query the progress of the site Martian has mentioned and we will provide feedback.

Seems the whole Randburg area has gone to **** now. I can only get edge the last 2 days, tested in Northcliff, Fairlands, Ferndale and Linden as well.
Is their shaping? Like on port 2083? If I access my host's phpmyadmin, it uses this port and the delay is looooooonnng.
Hi there
No throttling or shaping is done on our network. We are currently busy with some upgrades which should resolve the congestion issues being experienced.
