My connection is not working properly, using it right now but it's intermittent, like it will only load half a web page?

Everything should be working as normal. Are you in the same location?

Local sites are loading up quickly as normal, speed test is good but many international sites are helluva slow to load.

Same location, had a guy on live chat refresh my connection and then powered down my router for 15 minutes. Still not right, can't even run a speed test it says network errors. I'm using the connection now but it can't load web pages with pics properly.

I've been without internet on my Afrihost mobile sim yesterday, and it only made a working connection today. Yet, it is much slower than normal. Pages load, but it frequently takes up to 10 seconds.

Three days now without proper connection. Plugged in another MTN sim and loaded a 100mb hour bundle and changed to Internet apn and everything's running fine. This is getting bloody frustrating.

Just took 30 minutes to download an update on the play store. This would normally be done in about a minute at my current location. Something is still not right.

The guy on live chat said there seems to be problems in the Western cape.

My hour bundle is about to run out of time, no sign of Afriman or Afriguy? Would like to no what's going on.

Cannot even do a speedtest. The app just tells me "Network communication error".
Ok, retried 1 minute later and got a ping of 38ms, down speed of 9Mbps and up of 1.9Mbps.
Seems fine now :confused:

Cool will try my Afrihost sim now.

Working my side also for now but it also worked a bit yesterday and the previous day. I must say the last three days have sucked eggs. Weird latency like there's been big packet loss.

So what is afrihost going to do for 3 days I have been off. I have never seen this or experience this extended downtime.

CellC Giga 100 LTE for R1k works well. As ever with cell network, your coverage may vary
