Hi everyone

I transfered my adsl line to afrihost with the bundle
2meg option about 2 months back and everything was going smoothly
with speeds but when the IPC problem came my
speeds were very poor after the IPC problem was resolved
I was still getting poor speeds so I reported it to Afrihost and sent them
almost 15 emails to them about slow speeds but they could not figure
what it was so I canceled with them and transfered my adsl
line back to telkom just to see whether speeds will improve
but they are still poor even with using different ISPs like openweb
and Fnb. The thing is it is just international speeds that are very
poor but local speeds are fine.The amazing thing is when midnight
comes international speeds are full speed on my 2meg line with diferent ISPs
but during the day speeds are very poor even with diferent ISPs.I have even phoned
telkom to re-sync my line and stabilize it but speeds seem to not improve during the day.
Could It be because of the recent 384 - 1mb upgrades
that could have effected my line even though I am on a 2mb line.


Anyone experiencing similar problems as me and
anyone can tell what to do to resolve this It would really
be appreciated.

Experiencing exactly the same problem only affecting international traffic have already logged 3 faults with telkom, havn't found a solution telkom won't even acknowledge my problem and the one techie who came to my house told me my ISP was at fault.

Also of note pretty sure it's not a congested exchange, followed the instructions posted here...

To check and my pings are constant and pretty much what they have always been with no packet loss.
