Okay now that is strange... Are you using our DNS at the moment?

Domain Name Server 196.7.7.7
196.7.8.9

Just did a double check and no VPN or IP switchers are running.

"BBC iPlayer TV programmes are available to play in the UK only. Find out why.
If you are in the UK and see this message please read this advice."

We can only tweak and massage the current network, we're opting for a new implementation as it offers us significant benefits in being able to monitor, upgrade and control the new network to a degree that we were not able to in the past.

Sorry but you said the exact same thing when moving to MTN, the EXACT same thing! I know it's not your fault but my wife has been trying to study for her finals and she has given up.

R50000k plus to go write in Austria in less than 20 days and she can't study.

Huh... Now that is definitely very very strange... Our DNS should be resolving to the local cache.

Can you please send me a PM with your ADSL username quickly.

That's definitely not an ideal situation... Can you drop me a PM please with your username, I've got a Test Account - on our current network - that I want you to switch to see if that helps at all.
 
Definitely something dodgy going on. Just switched back to my CW account and hey, P2P works again. Browsing and everything else a little slower mind you. @AfriGenie - any thoughts?

Are you in the North, South or East?
 
P2P Blocking? What's up Afrihost?

Tander said:
As I say, everything else is super fast. P2P is dead. My profile is also incorrect. I am now in the North.

Any further news on the P2P issue? I can tracert to the server, but nothing happens. Let's not pretend that this is accidental.

As you were... Just after my post, I'm seeing activity again. Feedback please!

It looks like something went a bit haywire on the network management side, we resetting a few things now, and that should get everyone back to full speed.

Nope!

Thank you. I have sent you a pm with the details.

Please reply to my pm so that I have something in writing that this is the agreement.

Perhaps we can do business again in the future.

Thanks.

@AfriGenie @moron51

P2P seems to be back. Also speeds are around 3 times higher than on my CW account. Let's hope it holds out. :D
