Have a question, I'm on a 100 GB capped account with Afrihost plus so getting another 100 GB added on per month. Since not having ADSL for a while last month and also for over a week this month, I'm now sitting with 180 GB of data which I'm definatly not going to use up.
My question is what will roll over to next month, will the original 100 GB as well as the Afrihost plus data be rolling over to next month? If it is the case, then I'll definatly change my package for next month to get less data otherwise I'll eventually come to a point where I'll be losing data.

You could donate it for a needy cause.

You could donate it for a needy cause.

And which cause would this be?
Look at it this way, if I actually had the 10 MB speeds which I'm paying for, then it would have gone towards my own cause.

Yes, all 180GB will roll over.

It would be up to you. You could make use of the 'Pay it forward thread'.

First hop latency? That usually indicates your local network... Mind posting a fresh traceroute?

Apparently you've missed my last few posts o.o

My apologies. Yes, this certainly still looks like congestion.

The latency is all over the place. What is the latency like if you switch to a mobile connection, and run a speed test?

I'm struggling to get my phone connected. Is there no other way to find the issues?

 

[DreamKing]

how possible I spent the money for certain speed and telkom can just cut it as much as they like without my notice?

so can I just pay the portion that I received?


interesting.

Who is managing your line? Can you try a test account with another isp?

interesting.

DSL is a best effort service. If your line isn't capable of sustaining your internet product you should consider changing to an alternative DSL product which matches your lines throughput. It would save you some money.

Morning - can one of the Afripeeps maybe help me with a port reset? My line dropped on Monday afternoon and since it reconnected I am seriously struggling with latency (even worse than before) - hoping a port reset will help.

Thanks
