It depends on a couple of things. Firstly, if you're submitting the command from the same DSL line you're tweaking, it will fail everytime because it loses the connection, so it can't get the complete confirmation.

If the issue is on the exchange itself, we are sometimes unable to complete the action, and get an error for the action.

You can always PM us if you need help. I'd also recommend rather submitting the Tweak My Line command off your Mobile Data if you have it :)

This actually makes a lot of sense. Next time I have issues I will pull out my Afrihost MiFi and then tweak the line through that connection.
 
Tried to watch NetFlix last night on 10Mb business uncapped and was stuck in SD. Watched Hulu and it kept dropping back to SD.
Speedtest was 100% doing 1000+kB/s as were NZB downloads when started up. Apple TV could not stream in HD, only SD as well.

This account has gone backwards for streaming, if this isn't sorted by November then I'll have to start looking at going back to Telkom ISP.

Ah, so understood. What was weird was that sometimes it would go green, and sometimes go yellow. Probably depends if it can connect the internet again before the app requests an update to the website.
 
I'm at home on leave, my line would be tested properly over the next week or do. However I doubt I would have any complaints, my Business account has been totally awesome from the ISP of the year 2013 :D (for the third time)

Yes, which is actually pretty unlikely that it wouldn't time out, becuase you are actually offline for a minute or so.

Ok, since 12am 16/10/2013 to this very minute I've consumed 34gigs (1 absolute BRay movie around 8gigs - don't ask 'cos I may have to kill you :whistle:) :D. Purchased a VPN to see what all the fuss is about online streaming :).

So tried to Tweak my home line from the office and I still get an error message.

I have tried the new and old clientzones with no success on either.

Hope one of those BR movies is a (legal) copy of Man of Steel. Love the fight scene in Smallville ;)

Time to stock up on those HDDs dude!

I have too Legend, can the number 1 ISP come with some specials please?

Haha, digging the edit there! I wouldn't have replied otherwise ;)
Honestly, we'd love to stock on some HDDs - we need to keep the market open for some people though!

Have a look at Mako and Matrix computers though, they're running specials at the moment. http://www.makro.co.za/p/39052/seagate-3tb-hard-drive-plus-avg-internet-security-2013/ That's madly cheap if you ask me.
Must resist the urge to spend!!
