Thank you afriguy and afrigenie and all the other bots, my line speeds are going more then less etc indicating they are indeed finally working on my line.

Thank you all so much for enduring all my ).( comments and threadjacks.

Atleast I can watch stuff without the buffer effect ;)

Cool beans, I know it's been a pretty bleak wait :(
Once Telkom have finalised things I'm sure it'll be awesome.

Could you please check to see if something could be done software wise my side as streaming is bad but downloads are ok.

While the SAIX tests are not great, the AH tests are vile.

AH used to be my primary account and TI was backup. Sadly over the last month or two TI has become primary account and AH backup account.

Looks like I will have to ditch AH for a new primary provider. Will make decision Thursday / Friday to avoid billing cycle issues.

Sorry AH, was good while it lasted, but if you guys don't pull your finger out before then, then our relationship will come to a rather ignominious end. :(

All streaming was bad last night. YouTube included was buffering every 5 seconds and that was on low settings

And to add for comparison to show that it's not my line:

Afrihost - http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3916085692
Webafrica - http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3916101778
Openweb - http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3916108312
FNB - http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/3916113713

I'm pretty damn surprised how well the FNB 1 performs >.<

(Apologies for posting other ISP stuff in this thread. I know it's meant for Afrihost support. Purely here for comparison to show it's an Afrihost network problem)
 
Pings have even got worse for gaming. Not by much but AH used to have the best pings out of all the ISP's I tried. Now they're consistently 10-15ms above my backups. Sigh.

Probably making a mountain out of a molehill here but it just personifies how things have slipped at AH.
 
Youtube for me is being served by this ip 173.194.128.88

This is not normal is it? It means it being served by a US server and its buffering non stop even on low quality.
 
I got servers in the range 74.125.233.0/24 when querying using google dns, opendns and AH dns.
