This is the way I see it is

1. It's the weekend
2. It's late

This problem will be "fixed" but some users will continue to see poor results till the work week resumes.

 

[Wolfling]

Sorry about that, we're seeing a problem on our end

If you see the issue on your end, any ETR?

ETA: Looks like the AfriPeeps are not online anymore

Looks to be better. Fairly sure it was a Neotel issue though, so they more than likely fixed it... Or as others said... Made it better

Yeah, seems better now.

What is TV? Is it like Netflix?

Not quite - it is more like visiting the Dentist ............... only more painfull

 

[kohlhtor]

It looks it is better but on webafrica I was get 3.7 mb/s Afrihost 2.5

Morning Everyone

Our network team reported that the international issue was resolved late on Friday night and the team monitored through the night and the issue was removed from the website early the following morning.

To my knowledge there shouldn't have been any further general issues over the weekend, but going through your posts now

Definitely looks weird there. Can you please ping bras.afrihost.com so we can see the response from the exchange?

Yep, dropped too. *sigh*

Yip, dropped as well. Really getting tired of this BS...

Not sure what happened here. Did you guys see more occurrences of this issue over the weekend? Please PM me if you're still seeing this, and we'll have our guys

 

[HarryPotgieter]

Guys,WTF is going on with afrihost. I have been struggling to play destiny since Friday. Decided to sign up with Gridhost to test it and everything is fine on their network. I'm tired of this cyclical service afrihost has. They are currently Green status on their site meaning they dont even acknowledge that there are problems...

Anybody have any alternative ISPs they can recommend? Looking for about 200-300gb of capped data. Dont care much for the uncapped times.

EDIT: Cant ever reach amazon or twitter now lol

 

[electrofreeze]

speeds are terrible again this morning and it looks like even the capped accounts are throttled
