Once you switch over to the new account your old details will be locked.
Did you get a mail with the details?

Haven't gotten it yet. Just asking the questions that have been niggling at the back of my mind.

That I'm not sure about. I think Gian said around 2 weeks? I stand to be corrected though.
We want to consume all the feedback that's available, tweak where we need to and leave what's running well. Once you guys are happy with the way things are running and we're happy with the way things look we'll hit the big green button to make things permanent.

So the @afrigreen realms will stay in place, and the @afrihost.co.za realms will fall away?

I'm pretty sure that we won't want to keep an additional realm around, so I think your older details will stay the same.
We'll confirm those details closer to the time of a cut over though :)
 
Just more updates on this Hummercellc

Ok, I am curious about the following.

1) Is this Afrihost's very own IPC or leased through a 3rd party?
2) Is Afrihost using Neotel on AfriGreen for all traffic or just local peering?

Neotel is one of the many providers involved in the POC.
I'm not 100% sure around local peering just yet.

We're peering with NAPAfrica.

Cool thanks,

So your equipment is now at Teraco? Which means 90% of local peering should be great!
Also I am guessing you guys now use Seacom?

So Afrihost will no longer be using MTN for DSL?

Did you check my posts above re latency?

Yeah, saw your posts above, while everything else works great, streaming sucks....I know, I know, all data is being routed from JHB to the East, still sucks.....

Details are being sent out at random, not everyone who signed up will get the details off the bat.
It's being done in batches, with the first one being sent out a few mins ago.

Ok, please bump me up the list.

Can't believe 2 hours later I am still struggling to download a 200MB file.

I know it does, but things need to be tested and implementations pushed out. This is exactly why we want you guys to test before we make our own decisions :)

Okay cool, aside from streaming everything else that I tested, worked great....

Great news! I'll let you know when we have any progress around streaming. I think the slightly higher latency may be a cause though.
