    Afrihost - Pure Fibre Feedback Thread

    @AfriNatic, I had my fibre conduit interfered with by contractors on my property (the junctions were separated in two places). Simultaneously, I lost service and broadband lights on ONT, but router lights are still on. I’m trying to get a technician in to test that everything is okay...

    True. It’s tricky, but you’d probably need ISPs to not support the FNO to incentivise another FNO to move in. Frogfoot is damaging Afrihost’s reputation, but they aren’t seemingly doing anything to force a change.

    I would jump at Openserve to get away from Frogfoot. They are the pits. ISPs should be forcing them to improve their network, but they won’t.

    Over a week with intermittent connectivity. By intermittent, it’s 99.9% up, but two or three times a day connection would drop for a minute. Plays havoc with connection to work VPN & extended data queries though. The most frustrating part is then the beige support, incapable of comprehending...

    Oi vey. This Frogfoot/Afrihost relationship I’m in is abusive.

    Completely unused bank card details stolen and used for online shopping - FNB explains how it happens

    You don’t seem to understand how the fraud works. It doesn’t matter who owns the card. Or whether it’s been printed yet. Fraudsters simply run procedurally generated card numbers against escalating MMYY and random CVV. Every bank is at equal risk. I reckon the fraud is more noticeable on...

    @AfriNatic Is the @Frogfoot Fibre still ongoing? Really poor connection consistency today: cannot maintain a Teams call at all - dropping once or twice an hour…

    Not seeing any network notification, but FF playing up again. Sketchy connection for the last 1-2 hours it seems.

    Everybody can be friends again. FFSFoot has sorted their stuff out, for now.

    Have you ever dealt with your billings guys? They’re awesome. I had >10 days with no uploads. They don’t consider that worthy of credit, because when it was up, it was at 0.1Mbps. So not an outage. And this FF issue: just an inconvenience, not an outage. They also don’t do anything without an...

    Biggest liability is being on @Frogfoot Fibre Second biggest liability would seem to combine that with an Afrihost account. @AfriNatic I’d recommend you guys review offering a “service” on their network. This is damaging your product.

    Sketchy, but noting that my mesh software doesn’t measure latency (I have to do that via WiFi). I think the line stability is messing with the latency measurement. I’m getting between 240ms & 11ms (to AH server).

    Something amok. DL only just came back up at this speed: no connection since around 11:20

    Very wobbly connectivity with FF in JHB today. Not sure if it’s just me…
