:(
Has your latency changed from the last tests you PM'ed me at all?

I'm on the capped account at the moment, so I can't check. But latency hasn't been an issue during this period - just the dismal throughput.

From the IS capped account:

Download Speed: 8416 kbps (1052 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 847 kbps (105.9 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency: 15 ms

No problems with line, or exchange..
 
You guys really need to get more support staff, paying customers should not have to continually wait for responses.

More staff are on the way :) We're on a bit of a hiring spree at the moment.
I know things are far from ideal now - but please give it a bit of time, I promise you things will only get awesome-erer from here!

Could I delay me paying Afrihost, while we wait, I doubt it?
 
Something is up in cape town, random dead internets :(

There is most definitely something up in the Southern Cape including PE. Speeds are erratic and streaming is poor.

My only conclusion is that Afrihost has run out of IPC capacity on these IPC links !

It is therefore in my opinion that this will not improve until more IPC capacity is brought online...maybe 3 weeks
 
Yeah but it should not affect business accounts

Why not ? If there is not enough capacity everyone will suffer...QOS is only so good...I'm getting 2Mbps max on my 6Mbps business account at the moment.
 
The Business accounts are definitely unshaped.
Have you had any comparative tests submitted to our Support team around this?

So - are business accounts unshaped?
 
Can you guys paste a few traceroutes up so we can see where these slow downs are coming in please?
 
I have lost authentication on my adsl. My modem syncs but does not authenticate. AfriGuy/AfriMan, please fix ASAP.
