    Good Luck if you need tech support from Mweb over the festive season

    19 Dec 9AM - (This is not a public holiday) Trying to phone Mweb for fibre support is a useless excersize. I quote the voice speaking while you wait on the phone: "You are currently caller number 1". Hanging on for 30 minutes results in some music and a continuous voice telling you that you are...

    Hi speed Mweb service

    My experiences with Mweb over the course of a decade or so have always led me the conclusion that this is an organization that you want to avoid having anything to do with at all costs.

    Migrating from Metrofibre to Afrihost

    I'm also moving away from Metrofibre... The price is not bad but the support is non-existent... That nokia router they give you is just rubbish... It's now after 7PM and I believe metrofibre is busy throttling my line because it is peak hour... Just wish I spent more time on this forum to know...

    Ebay International Shipping

    I'm looking at purchasing some second hand PC parts on Ebay.com. Has anyone used the 'eBay International Shipping' option from there before? I'm asking because if it is going to go through SAPO the stuff that I'm buying is probably going to disapear into thin air. :crying: Does it go through...

    MetroFibre Review

    That Nokia Router they supply you with is just rubbish... (banging head against the wall!?!) It boggles the mind how they supply high speed Internet with such a dumb router that has serious limits when it comes to the local network behind the router. C'mon!!! The days of Amateur Internet...

    Existing installation & router with another provider

    My contract is ending soon with my existing fibre ISP. I would like to move to another fibre provider. I already have the fiber installed and already have the router. Is there some sort of discount if I order fibre from Afrihost without the router and fiber installation because I already have these?

    Mail server, web server and some other Internet of things stuff... A dynamic DNS won't do.

    Slow downloads on Mweb 200mbps Fiber

    I’ve noticed that at times they throttle any kind of download http/torrent and some streams down to 50kbs… Anybody else having the same issue? The only thing that is working well is Youtube/Netflix. I’m sure I don’t come near their FUP when it comes to downloading. Also noticing that...
