I think there is a problem in CT town generally. I don't think it is ISP related. Am running +- 1/8th speed on my line with my Vox account and my TI account is worse. Think the the storm this morning has knocked something out somewhere...

Thing is, it was absolutely fine in the morning and afternoon.

Gaming latency is piss poor and my P2P is ridiculously low as well ...


If I was not 2 houses out of LTE range I would jump ship right now to get rid of this POS network

Agreed. It's been two months of patience. I'm cancelling my account before end of November.

Are you also in Cape Town?

It was the first time I played a video on Twitch and it played at high quality.

FYI for when someone at AH wakes up tomorrow, I just used a test account from a different ISP and everything is 100%. So. Yeah. Definitely AH's stuff-up.

I know that it shouldn’t matter but, there were posts that points to network problems in Cape Town. Yesterday several complaints came from KZN.

@LaraC

Seems your connection keeps a stable state with AH as your ISP.

Others seem to have issues dependent on location in the Southern region with AH as their ISP as well. I saw you keep posting JUST speed test results and YouTube info a few times, which seems stable, but speed tests/video statistics aren't always a good indicator depending on network load and time frames.

So, can you post some MTR / Traceroutes info to local servers & Int locations, if you don't mind?.

In this way we can see where the routes go & compare with other AH users in the relative same demographics.

If you can provide statistics to google.jhb/ct // thinkbroadband[.]com with MTR and traces, some other AH users might get a better picture for troubleshooting. Core dumping of raw output packets (ipv4) will be of great value.

You're are under no obligation to do this on an open forum post, but it will help others on AH network.

Below a basic output with the local lan (19 devices) under 47% utilization.

Hope this is helpful. You'll have to explain how to do a core dumping of raw output packets. :o

I get better results than you in most of those tests you ran with the same tools :p

Are you able to stream on Twitch.tv and Vessel.com?

I don't subscribe to Twitch but I tested a video earlier and it played without buffering. No idea what Vessel.com is.

Vessel.com is basically YouTube but behind a paywall, I was able to stream about 2 hours of content off of Twitch today and that is it nothing more nothing less.

I would just like to know if there are other users experiencing the same issues.
 
Seems with the new network they can't get their billing right:
I was charged R976 for a 4Mbps Business Bundle today!?!?!?!
