[sand_man]

My own tests on Business are showing pretty solid. Are you running any trace routes?

Been hammering Rapidgator this am. Hardly stellar results...

 

[Stillie]

LOL - if it ain't broke .....


Are you having issues on your side?

Protocol Prioritisation: Deactivated, yet Youtube is sucking serious gorilla gonads today as are some forum posts with pics which sometimes do not even load.

Nowhere near 6Mb either:

100% Realtime Speed? Um.... nope.

Looks like your ADSL line. Your FNB speeds are also down the crapper.
Look outside. It's wet.

That's likely half of your problem.

 

[koosbeer]

@froot: the fnb speed is closer to what I usually get where afrihost is half that. So the wetness results in my line being a little worse on fnb and a lot worse on afrihost? Intelegent wetness?

 

[Bursty-dude]

Rebooted the router - 1.61Mb.

Dear Hellscum.

Your line issues are pissing me off.

Sorry I'm only getting back to you now
The latency isn't looking great, possibly pointing to a line/ exchange issue. Could you paste the results of a traceroute here?

Afriman, please explain this:

I rebooted and am getting this:


But.........


And then I got this in an email just now:



The line was originally 10Mb, then degraded to crap, then synced down to 6Mb.
Or am I missing something here?

Can I now change to the 10Mb Business Uncapped package at no extra monthly fee as it says in the email?

Because as soon as your congestion is sorted, your account is going to be blazing again.

So much for Hellscum "upgrading" the infrastructure in my area and me supposedly having a better line. Pffffft, you ain't fooling anyone Telkom.

My current line of 4mb business account, don't think this weather has done anything to help...ADSL works but telephone line is down...fault reported let's hope this is related to that
