Almost an entire day of high latency, which still persists?
Is anyone at Afrihost taking this seriously?

You should have seen significant improvements. Are you still getting similar results to your previous traceroutes?

Hey afrihost. Having issues again today with youtube. 20 meg VDSL business uncapped, and extremely bad buffering on certain videos. Using 8.8.4.4 and 8.8.8.8 as DNS.

Those could be alternative Cache Servers, is there any difference in performance between the two accounts?

Strange... Did switching the DNS improve Youtube performance?
Its the exact same account, that's the problem.
Here is one via IS

Did not switch DNS at all. Using 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for months now.

BTW, youtube is still buffering like crazy. Probably due to me NOT watching a typical cached video. What are you guys doing to solve this?

We're seeing a significant increase in latency in the East and South, our Team is investigating the cause now.
I'm pretty sure this will be affecting your streaming as well.

Same here man, youtube now auto detects to 144p, that's how bad the service from Afrihost is today....
Come on guys, sort this out....

You will get the same response "Our experts are looking into this" odd thing is it never improves, and then when we get the speed we pay for a few times a month, we have to appear grateful.

There is definitely an issue at the moment, and our Team is working on getting everything back to normal. I'm not sure what else you expect me to say or do?
With regards to gratitude, that is entirely up to you, we provide you with a service, and it is our responsibility to provide you with the service that you need.
