    Afrihost SIP Server

    Hi I wanted to find out if it is possible that Afrihost could maybe have blocked my IP address from accessing the SIP server. I can DM you my IP and can someone check as per the MTR below I am unable to access it. I have checked with my ISP and they said to check with Afrihost.

    Solar opinions

    I would go with the 2 x 5Kw as the others have said it give you more room for growth with adding panels to the 4 MPPT's, I have 1 x 5 Kw with 2 MPPT controllers and I am trying to find a way to add more panels.
