Absolutely horrible at the moment. Can't even open Afrihost website

Frogs pulling the piss again? Good ol' Char-low. Nothing on their site but I can't get an IP address...

:mad::mad::mad: Going to be a long day... Load shedding, now no internet, and load shedding again tonight.

I played around last night with enabling DNSSEC (and the rest of the DNSSEC Stubby settings at default) but it seems A LOT slower than when it's not enabled - based on the "Reply" times listed in the PiHole Query log. 50/50mb On Frogfoot + Afrihost Pure Fibre. My issue with that route is...

First off, I'm a Linux and terminal NOOB so I've never got my hands dirty with any of cool stuff I've seen everyone else doing. I know I'm several years late to the party but I finally decided to pull the trigger and got around to: 1) installing Raspbian Buster Lite + PiHole (using LTT PiHole...

This sounds super dodge. R72/R52 for a twelve month license. That's cheaper than their 1 month license. Are you downloading the setup files from Nord or some other link as well?

Mine also went down, in Broadwood.

Yo, I can't help with freeware as I have a paid Malwarebytes Business license and don't have a need for VPN at this point. Most people don't really NEED a VPN. But, I can say is that everyone should, at a bare minimum, be using Privacy Badger on Firefox and Chrome - if they not using Brave...

They doing a lot of maintenance this weekend. I saw a few "planned maintenance" notices on their site yesterday

Dam. Looking at the planned maintenance on frogfootfibre, for the next 3 days, I think it will be better to switch back to SADV until the 19th.

I'll admit that my VDSL line with Openserve was rock solid for 2 straight years. I'm 3 houses from one of those huge white cabinets and had excellent latency. Days like this I really miss it...

Did it just go down after 11am? Mine went down at about 11:15 but I'm in Broadwood. I went live yesterday.

What did you change it to? My understanding from another thread was that Rev R1's v1.0.0 firmware is newer than the v3.0.x firmware. However, there is no v1.0.0 firmware on SA or Russia D-Link FTPs. @AfriMan is v1.0.0 a custom firmware for AH?
