Sorry.. I can't do this anymore.. I can't even have a decent Skype conversation with my SO.

AfriGuy, I want to cancel this account, but I do not want to pay for next month, even if it is past the 15th.

Can this be worked around? If not, I'd pretty much just reverse the debit order at the bank next month.

Woah, that latency to your exchange is terrible :( Looks like congestion, have you tested another ISP?

Sorry to hear that things aren't working out :(
You can cancel anytime before the 25th for it to take affect for month end.

Do you have a backup ISP to test, or run some tests on the Telkom guest account?
This looks exchange related :(
 
Well although the timeouts have stopped, the latency isn't looking so hot. Youtube can't load 480p.

Just a reminder that we're still working through some testing for now - things may be a little wonky/ see connection drops entirely. I'll update you guys here once we're done.

Updates are all done, please keep testing :)
One of the confirmed fixes was carbonite.co.za is now accessible.

We'll continue a few other changes later this evening.
 
So, its been 24hrs since I signed up to test. No details as yet. :(
 
I tried out the network today (I'm in Durban) and it was slower than the normal business uncapped. YouTube was almost totally broken. I'll try again sometime.

Downloading from http sites like mightyupload.com, 180upload.com, movreel.com, etc still going slow. Averaging now less than 100kbps.
 
Afrigreen is worse than my AH Business account.... only decent speeds are to JHB server (I am in CPT).

Latency is high...

http://speedof.me/show.php?img=150717040727-92774.png

Results are all over the place, constant buffering (at 480p), and most downloads are erratic to say the least.
The performance reminds me of the 20hr a day shaped AH Home Uncapped accounts....

Unfortunately, cant switch back to original account, as it now seems to be totally useless as well :(

here's another - just as pathetic
