What changes would that be, considering that all business accounts are already unshaped?

I'm going to basically reset the entirety of the account itself, I want to see if there is perhaps something like the Business Optimization that has become stuck.

Thanks -- I'm anxiously waiting to see the result! I did turn the Business Optimization on and off in the CP the other day -- when it's on, NNTP throughput is literally 0 ...:(
 
Just another day of terrible latency :mad:

I'm glad someone is happy!

Trust me, I am actively looking at other ISP's.

But the price difference between Afrihost and Mweb/Internet Solutions is utter madness!

Leaning towards Mweb at this point in time... I have until the 25th to decide in any case....

I'm also investigating other options. Someone should start an "Afrihost refugees" thread where people can advise each other about feasible alternatives.
 
My Speedtest results are even better than that. But NNTP (and I believe P2P) is a joke.

Tried NNTP over HTTPS? I don't do regular N2TP or P2P on my line, so I'm not a good litmus test on those. That said, I'm able to get full speed on anything I do happen to try..
 
There seems to be a slight improvement now -- I'm getting around 30% of full speed, as opposed to 0-20%. I guess that could simply be because it's after 17:00...

Usage in the South is remaining more or less steady at the moment, so it is good to see the NNTP throughput increasing.
 
Well, the glimmer of hope was short-lived. It's back to the same old story.

:(

I've sent you a PM, this is entirely up to you, but would you mind switching to the test account and using that for the next few hours to see if there is any change in the consistency of the connection.
