AfriGents,

Please hereby accept my sincerest and humble apology for giving you stick yesterday and the day before. The reason for the high latency and bad download speeds on my network turned out to be due to no fault of yours. There seems to be a process on my W10 PC that is stuck on 62% of it's required download.

I have tried to cancel it, restart it, defer it and delete it, but nothing is working. I have asked the local MS guy working with us if he could have a look and he also admitted that it is polling for service at MS.com, causing the process to grab all the bandwidth it can to try and push the job through.

Again, sorry for taking it out on you and blaming the first scapegoat I saw.

To all the other guys on here who seem to be having issues, please check your local setup before taking to the forum to vent and point fingers. It's not nice feeling like a complete git and then having to apologise for being a dumbass.

Had the exact same issue whilst running windows updates on the previous preview build. Only solution was to completely wipe the update history and let windows re-initialize it.

a. Go to menu Start> All Programs> Accessories. Right click on the "command prompt" and select "Run as Administrator".
b. Copy/paste the below command:
c. net stop wuauserv
d. And select OK.
e. Wait until confirmation that the service is stopped.
f. To delete the file, copy the following command in the command prompt:
g. del %systemroot%\SoftwareDistribution\DataStore\Logs\edb.log
h. You can also delete it manually by going to the location in windows explorer.
i. you can restart the service with this command:
j. net start wuauserv

It's only fair - you guys have copped a lot of flack on these forums lately with me also climbing in and getting my 2c worth. Now, for once, the shoe is on the other foot and I can only empathize with you guys with what you have been through the past couple of months. Hats off to you okes for keeping your calm and staying so professional in dealing with arguably the most hostile and technically savvy people you will probably encounter.

We're here to help, sometimes a bit of friendly fire is par for the course. But ultimately we believe everyone has the same objective here - great internet, and that's what we're all about.

Appreciate the kudos :)
 
It's 10AM and I'm getting full speed on a game update. Damn I love this new network. I hope the network stays like this forever, it's been great so far.
 
Running flawlessly. :)

what exactly do you want
Click to expand...

If you're on Windows, grab a tool called WinMTR and run it to to a host - this will show packet loss.
Alternatively, you can run a traceroute to a site and a ping to bras.afrihost.com without anything running on the line.
