:(

I don't think it's a capacity issue... We still need to figure out what's going on. Are you seeing the increase in latency to any other games?

Yes, League of Legends, Smite, Heroes of the Storm, and I fired up Warcraft 3 to play with a friend as well, that had about 290ms to Austria.
If it's a free game, I'll download any game you want and test it as well.

Going to check what the latency LoL EUW is right now, it's probably back down to 180-190ms. Last night I kept playing till 11pm, permanent 290-320ms ping.

EDIT: 190ms now.

Thanks! If we need anything specific I'll PM you the particulars.
 
for any potential afrihost hosting customers,

please don't sign up with with them any hosting package, they will use the domain name as hostage to avoid you to go.
that is terrible.

:mad: :mad: :mad:

PS: where is my back money back guarantee?

That's not cool to hear! :( We defintely wouldn't do that, the actual transfer may just go through on the cancellation date. PM me your details and I'll check what's going on.

Just to confirm that the domain has been cleared for transfer by our Team this morning and that the hosting space will be cancelled on the 30th of November as the cancellation was requested before the 23rd of November.

Hi AfriGenie,

Nothing changed still crappy.
Any idea when this will be resolved?

I'm going to have talk with our Team now to see if we can get a timeline.
 
Still crappy ping to EU west. Really not happy Afrihost. Is it still possible to cancel?
 
Any tests I can take a look at? What DNS settings are you using?

Using Google DNS, I now have 290-350ms ping LoL EUW, in comparison of the 190 earlier.

I really hope this Mweb problem gets sorted, it's been talked about for a number of weeks now with no result.

Mweb's own DSL network has fallen apart, I have Tested

Telkom to Mweb
Mweb to Mweb
IS to Mweb
VOX to Mweb
Afrihost to Mweb

Yes there are problems on Mweb's network, but for some reason Afrihost to Mweb seems to be the most constant.

I am running VoIP over DSL to talk.mweb.net, and it terrible on Mweb's own network!

Who knows when Mweb will take this problem seriously....
 
Don't worry guys, there hasn't been an issue since beginning November, this is only an anomaly for a select few clients. /sarcasm
