    The worst combination, RSAWeb and Vumatel

    On Saturday the storm dumped water on my ONT via the ceiling. I logged a call with RSAweb to replace it. 4 days later, numerous requests to RSAweb and Vumatel, I am still waiting. 2 days ago I received an sms from Vumatel saying that a Technician would "shortly" be contacting me to arrange a...

    So you basically force these settings on everyone, without their knowledge to make support of a few easier? Sorry but that is still a sneaky thing to do. You do it via a firmware upgrade, without being transparent up front about it. My understanding is that you supply a line and a Router, The...

    You pay a grand or so for connectivity, you would hope it was a bit more professional.

    Thank you so much for your wishes. The problem for me isn't just the fact of privacy, but I have had to go do setups for Dynamic DNS etc, and when things don't seem to be working, I cant eliminate the possibility of someone else playing with my settings while I'm testing.

Don't exactly have a large router budget. Incidentally, Ive been hosting 2 websites through them for a while, and put in a...

    Well, thats a great question. The reason was that I trustedtoo much I guess, which I am sure is the same for most of their customers. How many people even know how to log into their router. The point is still that it is a breech of privacy from them without permission. And yes, I will get my own...

    My new router coming is an upgraded one, but the point is that I have a big problem with someone else having access to my settings without my permission!!

    Afrihost Firmare Settings

    After almost 2 years of Fibre Connectivity with Afrihost, and many unexplained glitches, I finally decided to migrate to RSAWeb. The cost was nothing and the subscription is cheaper, but that wasn’t the motivator. I do development and quite recently, while I was in my router configuration, I...

    Rate Afrihost

    In all fairness, I have had my issue resolved, and I received a very heartening call from Marius to apologise and offer his personal service in the future. 10 out of 10 Afrihost

    What is it with Afrihost?

    I have been with Afrihost for a while. I have 2 hosting packages as well as Fibre. I have been frustrated with their service as far as billing is concerned and been trying to get someone to take ownership of the problem for a week. It seems that one needs to get to speak to Gian personally, as...
