Why are you guys from joeys posting speedtests? AFAIK it's the Cape Town IPC with an issue, or am I missing something?Originally Posted by Sinbad
Uncapped
Or are you perhaps just pointing out that your lines are fine, and the rest of us are just dealing with the CT issue?
Just showing all the peeps that say their uncapped is crap, that it isn't an issue with there uncapped.. just the CT issue. If we where all getting *** speeds then we would know it was Afrihost telling stories
:: i7 920 :: CoolerMaster CM690 :: 12GB Corsair :: 7.5TB ::
:: Sammy 37" :: ATI6870 :: Win7 :: 4 meg uncapped
Exactly.
Gotcha, and agree. Definitely an exceptional situation. Hope its resolved soon.
Latency is normal for me this morning on my capped account...yesterday during the day it was ridiculous, almost unusable, peaking at 400ms to local sites. Lets wait until the uncapped guys wake up to see what impact it has, I'm expecting it to climb as the day goes on.
It is definitely NOT an exceptional situation! They have run out of capacity on their IPC links, the same reason some of the other uncapped providers suck, not enough IPC capacity, it is a common theme and seems like most of the uncapped providers fall foul to this at some point. Hopefully they can bring more online ASAP, or should I say hopefully Telkom can catch a wake up and provide more ASAP!
AfriMan... Any time-frames on the current work being done to fix the issues.
Could we expect this to be resolved in the next day, 2days, next week?
Do we start making plans to get data somewhere else that does not involve IS?
I noticed Openweb users seem to be having the same issues we are having.
I know this is no fault of Afrihost, and that your hands are tied, but what contingency plans are Afrihost taking so this does not happen in the future?
We are on a 100gig 4mb capped account and it's not OK

Congratulations!
You are no longer on our brand new MTN network!
We are following this up at the highest level, and putting major pressure to get this resolved. I totally understand that many people are frustrated right now, once this is resolved it should never occur again.
I can say that major plans are in process to make sure that we are not in this position again, and we expect much better performance from Afrihost accounts on all levels.
If AfriMan says it, it is so!
Learning curve
So far I'm not disappointed.
It just is the demand for cheap uncapped accounts which caught a lot of people unawares.

My speed looks better today but still not close to what I usually get.

I spoke to fast. Running at 2.5mbit/s now. Last night from about 18:30 until this morning sometime, don't know exactly when because I was not at my computer, my downloads was running at 8.8mbit/s.My speed looks better today but still not close to what I usually get.

No point posting speed reports until Afriman comes back and says the IPC upgrade has been completed. The IPC link is clearly way over capacity during office hours and no amount of speedtest results will change the fact that Afrihost can't do a damn thing till IS finishes the work
