For the last week or so during peak hours my line has been heavily limited especially in the afternoon/evening. Only downloading at 10-25kb/s. I have noticed that after 12pm at night and the early hours of the morning (till about 5am) the speed returns to about 60-70kb/s which is sort of fine but still well under the 90-100kb/s to be expected from a 1mb line which is the speed it used to run at once upon a time. This heavily affects games that i play online, giving me as much as 800ms delay to local servers most of the times
Also about a month back the line would continuously re-sync approximately every 2-3hours and that got very annoying. It wasn't the router settings and after phoning in i think they have sorted that out cause at least that problem has stopped. Sigh, Telkom...why!.
Right now at present the line seems to be working properly but for the whole month so far its has been bs to say the least.. Hope this is a permanent fix and not just temporary. Is it asking to much to get what you pay for?
