Zertop's "Is it my Line" Results
Basic Report:
Your average ping was 8ms
Your maximum ping was 11ms
Looking at your average ping, your line seems to be running perfectly
It seems that your maximum ping is also good. If there are any issues, they most probably lie with your ISP :-(

Yes. It is indeed
So they aren't going to be knobs like Ope_We_ and make my account unusable when I hit a certain amount per month?

Zertop doesn't actually have an account. He's the Afrihost shill.AH Business is completely unshaped... you'll love it

They don't call it shaped, but it sure feels the same.
Okay
Yes it is, its the way internet is supposed to be.
Telkom will not be blamed for everything.

Judging by these comments, Afrihost is the way to go? So far, this thread offers the only positive comments i've seen from any ISP.
I'm currently with MWEB and i've recently been MmmmWEBBED!
Raped my account this month, currently on about 600GB and badly throttled to a crawl as a result. My DSL is basically unusable. Can't even open the MWEB home page during the day
I run a one man business from home and obviously I need connectivity. I'm definitely divorcing MWEB but I'm not sure who I should marry.
Any advice about Afrihost would be appreciated.

Nice to hear that you're thinking of coming over to us. I won't take the divorce analogy further though - could get messy
You can drop me a PM if you'd like to chat about joining us
That's kinda uncool. Zertop is a client, just like anyone else in the forum, but he just happens to want to help other clients who run into problems - which I think makes him pretty awesome.
Our product is absolutely unshaped, and uncapped. We don't impose any rules on the product, except for a rate limit to the base line speed (like 4Mbps Business) and we restrict the account to one concurrent connection. Otherwise we don't touch it at all.

Bumping this in hopes of a solution. HTTP down to a trickle from what my brother tells me at the moment. Any idea what could be going on?
I think you'd better drop me a PM so I can get our guys to run full diagnostics here. Don't see anything popping out from the results I've seen
Just remember that Afrihost Business is a bit crappy when it comes to Hulu/Netflix streaming for some unknown reason compared to other Business accounts It's the only bad thing about them. For NZB or other types of access they cannot be beaten.
