Are you still in Bellville CT? What kind of Afrihost account do you have?

From my side I don't have problems with bandwidth but I'm only on a 2mbit line. The latency is absolutely trash though 400ms+ when I hop over to a WA account that latency comes down to 13ms.

Jip tygerfalls, it's a 82gb plus 82gb capped account.

I'll let you know as soon as the latency picks up
 
Wow. Had a horrendous YouTube experience tonight. Pity my tablet can't do PPPoE, otherwise I'd be using my backup account.

Afrihost, please pull up your socks...
 
Yes... Please... Sort yourselves out

350 local ping on Afrihost... 11 on another ISP

Its 100% afrihosts issue, switch to another ISP and all is well.
 
I have an account from RSAWEB, but it's also MTN in the back. Same terrible latency. On 40Mbps VDSL. Speeds are good, just the lag.
 
Morning!

I hope you guys had a pleasant Youth Day!

I've been reading through the Capped Thread, and it definitely looks like latencies were nowhere close to being within a decent range. Our Team is investigating why the latencies were as high as they were, as it seems to have spiked around midday in all regions.

This is a top priority for us and we'll find out why this happened.

If being the canary in the coalmine resolves the problem I'm thrilled. I have to however ask - did none of this trigger a system alert?

So we've established it's widespread. Yet still the status board showed everything was running like a bomb?
That does not compute. Here we have a real widespread problem and the status board is green.
The perception created is that AH views the status board as a detractor rather than adding value.

Yup. Reminds me of OpenWeb and iBurst... DENY DENY DENY...
Willing to bet they took the international link down to install another optical fiber tapper for the NSA.

It was a crappy one, thanks to your company's lack of service. We went out to catch a movie at the cinema
 
Yeah, why is it always being investigated/attended to afterwards??

The same story again, lack of IPC!

The international was not the problem, the local was.
