I switched back to AH before shutting everything down. Even Tapatalk is now extremely slow.
 
Yeah using a VPN now and it seems to be working. Really ridiculous that we have to resort to these kinda things though :/

Seems to be back up now....
Hopefully we can get an explanation as to what happened....

Wish I could say the same. Everything still borked. Youtube, play store, google search, chrome, mybb android app (to list a few) - all dead.

To be honest, it was working about an hour ago, was streaming youtube just fine, it seems to be down again....So sad :(
 
Tried using my mobile data - same problems. I am with mtn so it seems it is an mtn issue??

I am glad its not just me. I was pulling my hair out trying to get Gmail + Google to work.

Maybe a DNS issue... my TelkomMobile data finished for the month so cant check it myself. Maybe someone can post us the IP addresses for google and gmail (that they can access) and post the IP addresses for us?
 
Sigh...

Can't even stream 240p youtube without issues.

This is really really getting pathetic...

You would think after the amount of time they have known about these issues that they would do something about it, but no it actually gets worse.

I post seldom. I have always recommended Afrihost. But... I'm typing this from a backup Web Africa account. I'm sorry guys... If I cant stream YouTube at 480p on a 8Mb uncappped account something is wrong.

This is my speedtest results :

But if youtube can't load and gmail says "Oops… the system encountered a problem (#007) - Retrying in 4:50" then surely something must be wrong with the speedtest result, speedtest whitelist, maybe????

Most websites aren't loading - including youtube, mybb, subscene.com and many many others. Connect to a vpn and all works fine. Yeah - like that's normal. Don't have time for this bulls**t.

My side Play store & youtube has not been working since the afternoon.

Looks like Afrihost has left the building to burn for the weekend. I cannot with good faith trust that they are doing their best to fix these issues.

I also couldn't load YouTube or the PlayStore last night. Wtf Afrihost really. :wtf:

I also struggle to stream 720p YouTube on the 4Mb business line these days. Is that what I should expect?
