And again no support 18:30

Sorry, but please make a coherent post. Are you saying you have issues with slow iOS app updates? Do you have this issue while downloading other things? The new iOS update was just released, so the Apple servers might be having trouble catering for everyone.

Could you also post a speedtest and tracert with the package you are on?
 
No it is a afrihost problem
Telkom is fine and on vpn is fine to it started 2 days ago before the ios update

Apple servers are handling the load just fine, since the majority of it would have been last night when IOS 8.3 and IOS 10.10.3 went out.
 
Here go again.

Back to unwatchable bufferring 240p youtube on a 6mbit line tonight and general useless performance. Random 200-400ms latency spikes starting at the IPC hop. (I'm in Cape Town.)

Exactly the same story as with the last iOS release. Is this now "expected behaviour" when a new update drops, or is there something else wrong? Seems its not just me by the posts in this thread.

Thank you!
 
Damn my ping unstable again here in Cape Town seems every night at 8:30 you can't play play proper gaming.

 
Yep, another night of retarded Afrihost pings for me too. Have just submitted my cancellation.

Yeah I'm giving them until double data ends. Once it does there is no point paying for low cap AND a poor network. Quite tired of this too. I noticed that many of the older afrihost mybb clients have already left :/

Had to sign up for WA free account, I cannot deal with the performance being so bad as of late.
 
Hiya all,
I'm in CPT and did report packet loss and latency issues yesterday.
Interestingly I'm all good at the moment. Here's holding thumbs. Hope I haven't spoken too soon.
Rgds,
SD

PS: An Apple a Day - blech... Give me an Ice Cream Sandwich, Jellybeans and Lollipops any day ;). It's clear that Apples do nothing but 'constipate'. Muhaha....
