    A comedyof incompetence at Afrihost

    Shortly after moving from MWEB to AH I get this call from AH saying that my line had been upgraded to 10Mbps and that they have automatically upgraded my line for me.

    DSLAM upgrades, line speed, and stability

    A question for all those marginal, far from the exchange ADSL connections. Now that Telkom is generously upgrading 384kbps users to 1 Mbps, what happens to those whose lines were stable at 384k, but now fall over at 1 Mbps? Does every such user need to ask for their line to be downgraded...

    Unexplained ADSL packet loss

    I've been running 4mbit ADSL for a while now but recently it started to give me problems. Most of the time the connection works fine but I frequently experience periods of severe packet loss.

    Speeds on 4mbps?

    Out of curiosity, what speeds to you guys generally get on 4mbps? After doing a speed test at www.speedtest.net I seem to download at peak speeds of approximately 2781kbps and upload at approximately 412kbps? Is that normal for a 4mbps line? I'm with IS, btw. Thanks!
