Where are you again?
I'm not pausing my downloads now, but I'm getting 19ms to afrihost.com.

Where are you again?

If latency is inconsistent there may be congestion on the exchange somewhere. Are the response times from hop 2 fairly stable?
Hop 2 was the erratic one along with 3.
Anyway, looking a lot better now but speed on the capped account is about 0.5Mbps off where it should be.
Will see how things evolve during the day.

Afriguy, sent you a pm this morning, still waiting for a reply
Could you PM me two or three traceroutes so I can check it out?
I'm actually out now. If things are still iffy when I get back then I'll send them.

Sorry, I'll get through my PM's eventuallyMy inbox overflowed last night.
PM's suck for this kinda thing, we should get something that has more of a threaded/conversation view, that just groups by subject, like the forum, and doesn't rely on being "quoted"
I'll be on the lookout for em
Just remind me in the PM that we chatted, my mind is everywhere today.I'll be on the lookout for em
AfriMan just PM'd me now with regard to the traces I sent him. He is looking into it as I type this.
Ah OK, thanks for keep me posted on this. You're in good hands with Mr rep of the year
Just ran through my inbox now, don't have anything from you.
Did you maybe PM AfriMan instead?

We shouldn't be seeing increased latencies in any regions today. Could you maybe post a traceroute here to so we can see where the latency is being introduced.
Here you go... It's being introduced on the now famous MTN IPC hop. When things are running smoothly for me that hop is sub 15ms...

Just activated the business uncapped account in seconds after ordering
One question, is the account linked to my land line? I.e. will I be able to use it when visiting a friend or my parents?
*Ah I see now it's not possible. At least there's the payment holiday option!

Hi,
Checking my usage on the new version of the client zone, I noticed 2 phone numbers listed, 1 is an unknown number? Is this a glitch or has my account been hacked, the odd number only used 5MB, and this happened yesterday.

Unfortunately linked to your landline.
Using it on another line/number would entail phoning Afrihost support to have it actioned there. Pity. Highly inconvenient. Would be awesome if it could be used on any number provided one concurrent connection at a time!
