    RAIN Fixed wireless throttled

    Hi, Is anyone else having issues with Afrihost fixed wireless being throttled? During peak times I get throttled to 1mbps. That was still useable, but lately it seems like they started balancing usage even more. Now I get 1mbps for 2 minutes, then it stops complety for 30 seconds. This continues...

    Afrihost theft and blatant ignorance.

    Dear Afrihost. Seeing as you steal money, I have decided to take legal action against you. https://www.hellopeter.com/afri-host-com/reviews/fraudulant-activities-2611882 Seeing as you don't care for your clients, and don't bother fixing this after 3 weeks, I have decided to return the favor.

    Fixed LTE wireless

    Can anyone recommend the best fixed LTE wireless provider to move to? I am completely done with Afrihost and Cell C, very poor service from them. Nothing costly too as I am a student.

    AFRIHOST 160ms to eu.battle.net -> 190-200ms eu.battle.net

    How does this actually happen? After 6 months of having perfect pings, now its gone to ****, with packet loss in certain situations. A friend who lives 3 units away using Cool Ideas still has perfect pings... how does this happen? Getting irritated.

    Afrihost, I wanted to believe in you...

    TL;DR Cannot login to ClientZone. Need to change +27 to a 0 on my cell number of my Afrihost account so that OTP can be obtained. In order to do so, they want me to produce a little less than my soul :P...

    Another Afrihost Exodus

    Its a sad day when you have to finally accept that it's time to move on. We have been having ongoing issues with being throttled during peak times to 10Mb download on a 100+ premium uncapped account on vumatel fibre. Off-Peak... no problems. After logging several tickets with all the test...
