Afrihost CAPPED ADSL Feedback (MTN)

[AfriGuy]

Yup, Bryanston.

Hhhmm OK.
The North has looked pretty good today. Have you seen the slower results all day today?

 

[Mariuspay]

Yip. Pretoria
No. Fast this morning until abot 2 this afternnon, the 1 Mb until about 1630. Then up & down like a honeymoon panty.

 

[MelvinBOT]

I still have some latency issues but the speed is perfect.

 

[i.got~issues]

Hmmmm ... will this last longer than the previous tweak?

Hope so.



So nice to be able to use the account again.

What's your latency looking like? Does it fluctuate at random times throughout the day?

Generally very good but what is it with the Jhb Link?
I tested it 3 times and posted the best result.
Is JHB being routed via international?
I guess not as even that would be faster.

Will be streaming soon so I can test it under real world conditions.

 

[Masik3R]

Looking much better. Keep it up...PLEASE.

 

[Kido]

@Afriguy - Issue has started again with Destiny on ps3 constant in game disconnects please investigate and resolve very irritating at the moment

 

[tanka]

Getting 2mb/s International FTP downloads on a 20mb. Looking much better at the moment

 

[Prof.Merlin]

Right, so im giving up on this whole afrihost thing, but sadly i cant find another ISP with good prices like afrihost. Getting full speed on speedtest, but netflix constantly buffers making it useless :/

Just wait until end of Desember for their double data promotion to end. Then you will find more ISP's with good prices.

Nice test. Here is mine:

I find the MyBB speedtests sometimes don't run long enough (especially on the international test) so the numbers aren't very reliable.

Seems better?

 

[i.got~issues]

Seems better?

Yes... tonight is delivering what is being paid for.

Time will tell if it is sustainable tho'... before the "tweaking" begins again.

.tick .tock

 

[Ivork]

Well its 8:45pm and it's looking a LOT better from Cape Town streaming http wise.
Not perfect - the odd buffering top of XBMC but nothing like the last two weeks atrocious mess this time of night.

 

[Nuro]

My connection seems solid tonight. Please keep this up

 

[ECape]

Yes yes yes, must say that tonight its back to the old AH again. Getting full speed on my 20mbps line.
Last night was realy bad.
I'm not with AH any more, but if this good performance continues, I'll be back.
Currently using some gigs from #datasteal

 

[avr-rulez]

CT line speed is still not MAX - climbs up to near line speed and then fluctuates...

9:30 PM and Streaming a 720P Video:


I am in great danger of experiencing Pure Internet Joy again.

Please confiscate the Passports from your overseas guests, revoke the security access to your Outside Software house and keep you Network Managers out of the server room for a week

Lets see if this holds for a week before you tweak anything else.

Or not?!
