We're implementing a solution to have the DNS issues resolved. Shouldn't be much longer now.
 
These DNS issues on the MTN network are making me sick. First Axxess had a bunch of issues every month for the last few months, now it's starting with Afrihost :mad:

Not cool :mad:

We're really sorry about the inconvenience, we know it's less than ideal.
Our top guys have implemented a fix which we're monitoring. I'll have further updates as soon as they're made available to me :)
 
For those guys still having issues, please reboot your router. We seemed to have implemented a work around which seems to be working.

I had problems and was out the office and unable to setup the router.

Is it not possible to keep the google dns or opendns configured permanently to avoid future problems?

It's not ideal. We recommend using our DNS for best performance on our network. Public DNS can be very intermiittent and sometimes performance is pretty awful :(

Sorry about this :( Could you please DM me your details so I can follow up on what's gone wrong?

All Afrihost clients can expect love at any time :)

I know what you mean. I don't know anything yet. It's been hard to ask the question with the Mobile Madness taking over. Will definitely get some Gian time soon to harass him about this :)
 
Hey Afriman/Afrielf

I understand that Christmas has come and gone this month. Boy I was super happy on what I found in my stocking :) Why I'm writing to you is I got a little to excited about my present and I never took the time to look if there was anything else in my stocking. Is there any chance you could check for me if I left a little something something in my stocking/capped account.

P.S.
Tell Santa he is doing brilliant job of bringing Christmas to us 12 months of the year

Hey, this post is so cryptic it would take the CIA months to decrypt it :D

Please drop me a PM so we can speak in non-code ;)

Hey Afriman

I understand that you have already given more than enough away this month. I must thank you for the delivery of my MiFi, its a cool little gadget :) I was just wondering if there is going to be a "Mystery Bonus" this month. If not I'll just top up my capped account as normal.

P.S.
Tell Gian he is doing a brilliant job and I can't wait to see what is going to happen next
