Afrihost New Network Feedback

[LaraC]

Actually it starts right now if you have a 100GB+100GB account or higher.
For those on the 50Gb+50GB account, it starts next month as they will be converted to 100GB accounts on the first of next month.

Oops, I misunderstood this post from AfriGenie.

Just keep reading from:

Wait. Do I not get unlimited data yet? (I am on the 75+75 account atm)

You don't need a VPN to use iTunes. But if you mean accessing US content on a US account:

1 - Login to VPN service
2 - Use iTunes

I'm not sure where you're going wrong? All VPN services explain how to use their VPN's.

The problem is the download stopped all the time and says can not downloaded

So I was right.

Not just yet, the benefit will be added on 1 December.

I just checked out Afrihost's new prices, and they're pretty insane. I might have to switch back to you guys once my fibre line is finally installed.

R599 for 300GB, R99 to turn that into 600GB with Afrihost Plus and R849 for 100Mbps line rental gives a total of R1547pm. That's by far the cheapest option for data hogs on Telkom fibre, especially with the uncapped data from midnight to 6am every day.

How are you Afrihost folk enjoying the network? It was working pretty well when I left last month.

vypr VPN

Weird. Vypr is a good VPN service. What 1.5GB file were you trying to download?

So far me I have a 4mb business line and seems anytime after 6 in the evening I cant download anything via news servers.

HTTP downloads are good get my full speed but I mainly use news servers.

So me not a happy customer at the moment.

Are torrents also nerfed after 6pm? I'm the opposite - Crystal Web gives me a free premium news server that I don't use, but torrents are handy for the movies and series I can't get via DSTV, Netflix or BBC iPlayer.

AH just died for me. My backup vox account flying. Anyone else?

 

[KoolDaffy]

Afrihost down? No internet access.

Here in JHB.

 

[tanka]

[killerbyte]

Dead. In Pretoria

But I have a friend in Durban who is currently online. And another who is with XDSL (Durban too) who is also not getting a PPPOE session.

Two ISPs, different locations.

 

[MonkeysUncle]

Dead here too

From I have been reading here for other users with business accounts that use torrents are saying that they have the same problem or similar at the moment. Looks like there is an issue with P2P.

I am able to stream netflix so the speed is stable just not with p2p.

Also it seems that its an issue that is happening with business account users only but I could be mistaken here.

Hopefully the issue can get sorted soon
