Afrihost New Network Feedback - Part 2

Status
Not open for further replies.
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.

There was an issue with international traffic on Friday night, but everything was back to normal late Friday/Saturday morning.

Did you run any tests I can take a look at?
 
My speed low speed this mornings yesterday I was getting 4.2 mb now 2.2 mb

The local results looks okay, I'll definitely need to check what's going on, can you please PM me your details.
 
I'm constantly getting internet dropouts for a minut or 2 at a time, can't get work done so I'm on mobile now.
 
Are you seeing a drop in throughput or was the actual session dropping?


Drop in throughput, I wasn't home the entire afternoon and just returned, but it's still the same,. It seams my line is dropping to below 1 MB download and sometimes completely.
 
Download Speed: 1437 kbps (179.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 678 kbps (84.8 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency: 44 ms

This on a 8 MB line, the actual line stats on the modem is normal, syncing at just over 8 MB down and around 750 Kb up.
