Everything seems to have improved here in Cape Town :)

Is there a reason customers weren't informed of what was happening and told to expect some slowness during the process? Probably would've avoided a lot of confusion.

Great news, thanks for keeping me posted!
I agree though, would have been better to have up-front comms about it - it's something we're working on :)
 
Haha!
We need to recover a bit :)
No no no, no time to relax buddy. Throw it all at us. We can handle it :D

Btw dont know if you caught my post, i asked Telkom to recreate my port, and my torrents went from 56kb/s to 1.5mb/s

Streaming was also okay, and speed test went to around 8mbps on the download. Still not great the speeds, but an improvement

I think there might be one or two more things we have up our sleeves, not sure around dates though.
The biggest announcements were last week though.

Glad to hear your line's gotten a bit better, hope it stays nice and stable :)
 
We used to have WiFi options, however we recently moved away from this :(
Our Mobile options are quite a good alternative though.

I have the 5gb deal from Telkom. When I travel, etc the hotels mostly use AlwaysOn. I used to use it when I was with mweb. AlwaysOn on its own is so expensive :( really hope they lower their prices.

AG quick one before i go, as its our holy day of Eid.

But i had to downgrade my package to a 100 + 300GB package. Is that 400GB anytime incl my AfriPlus?

Sorry for downgrading, but im still sitting with around 700 gigs data lol, so for now going down a bit. :D

So just want to clear that up ie the 100 + 300GB package. Do you mind checking the package i have downgraded to?

Eid Mubarak dude!

Hehe, no need to apologise for downgrading :)
Your current account is 100+300 GB, so should be all good.
 
Routing hasn't changed :)
Some of those hop names are deceptive though, they aren't local.

Latency and speed seems perfect again today to European servers, sorry for overreacting a bit there. Keep up the good work Afrihost!
