Afrihost - Pure Fibre Feedback Thread Part 2

[William1102]

Lol, yeah. The stats for nerds report a network speed of +80mbps, but the network activity section doesn’t even reach 100kbps, so there is clearly something up between afrihost and youtube

100% my suspect is on the network caches and it is YouTube and Epic games (Akamai). As Warp would bypass their on network caches and use their own or a public one. I am using Afrihost DNS as well.

It could also be transit as Netflix and Cloudflare are in Dbn where I am located and YouTube and Epic are all JHB.

Anyone else having major youtube buffering issues (Frogfoot 1gb line Somerset West)? Can barely watch 10s before another 15s of buffering, and this happens every other night. Speed tests, latency tests are all fine, it's something else.

I really miss being on Vumatel, had 0 issues for years at my last house..

Good day!

Is YouTube buffering on afrihost a thing again? Asking for a friend.

Seems so i have been experiencing the same vuma/cpt for days everything else is fine. No use complaining then it's traceroute this, what dns, bypass the router not in the mood for all that sh*t.
