We're making a few changes to the network itself tonight.

How are your other services looking at the moment?

Browsing and streaming from youtube and supersport are smooth but my Facebook and Google + are quite slow too and the pictures are loading really slowly. Been a problem for a while now. Worst at night so I assume it may be congestion at my exchange. Not sure.

FB loads fine. streaming at 720p60 seems fine, no buffering.

Download Speed: 3156 kbps (394.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 373 kbps (46.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency: 66 ms
Jitter: 13 ms

ReadBull TV @720P buffers.

Connectivity gone for a loop over the last 2 hours or so, skype is loosing connection and sites are timing out.

I presume you guys are tinkering? The jitter is really bad.

giggity · Jul 23, 2015

Keep disconnecting every 2 minutes or so. Still can't access www.up.ac.za

Vorastra · Jul 23, 2015

Insane amount of connection drops ATM.

JesseG · Jul 23, 2015

It's really bad at the moment, webpages don't load, my RSS readers don't load....A warning would be nice....Maybe an email to the Afrigreen beta testers that changes will be rolled at a certain time....

Vulkyrie · Jul 23, 2015

Connectivity is fine here overall...but no fb at all.

Naks · Jul 23, 2015

speed is fine, but now Facebook does not load !?

Yes, Facebook not working for me either. CNN, Sky etc are all fine

After not being able to use mail or connect to some sites a couple days ago, tried afrigreen again. Mail is working but some sites don't connect. Can't believe I've had to pay for this lousy service and now to be a guinea pig.

All my services back to normal....no facebook or streaming problems...ping and throughput is stable too. Cant access www.up.ac.za either though.

Nirv · Jul 23, 2015

So I tried using Afrigreen tonight, got constant disconnects from Path of Exile Europe servers, but stable latency. More worrying was that, after I was unable to access any Bestmed-related site, I tried to report an Afrigreen issue on the Clientzone, but got an "Oops! Something went wrong!" error (thanks Afrihost, I love these types of error messages. About as useful as Battlefield Battlelog error messages, which have spawned new internet memes owing to their super-informative error reporting /s.).

Anyway, I tried to report this: "Unable to access www.bestmed.co.za and related pages. Receive a timeout error using Google Chrome. Website resolves successfully using standard Afrihost account and other ISP accounts, but not AfriGreen."

JesseG · Jul 23, 2015

www.bestmed.co.za doesn't load for me either using firefox, haven't tried any other browsers, kind of sure the result will be the same....

Line syncs but wont authenticate

KoolDaffy · Jul 23, 2015

Line dropping constantly again. Might be working on it but incredibly frustrating.

Brollocks · Jul 24, 2015

Same here... Disconnected once during the last hour

AfriMan · Jul 24, 2015

Morning All

I've seen the comments about disconnects. I would think it may be due to testing going on, I wasn't online at the time so did not see from my side.

At the moment Facebook is definitely working for me, so whatever may have been happening may not be happening any more.

I've tested some of the other sites mentioned and reported those I can confirm are also not working for me (I see a few people mentioned that they couldn't use the reporting feature)

Will give you feedback as we get info through the day.
