Facebook is loading pretty well for me, but this may have been an issue last night and been resolved or sorted itself out somehow. If I can get more info, will give you feedback.
Still can't access www.up.ac.za. Doesn't work on Afri mobile data either.
EDIT: refreshed DNS and it is working

Awesome - we did report it to the team. But it seems like it worked for some and not others so we'll keep testing as well

Well it's working on mobile, I'll have to check afrigreen again when I get home.

Just to confirm from my earlier post, the team were busy with changes last night which probably caused the disconnects a few people noticed.
At least you know you aren't crazy

Good morning AfriMan
Do you have any feedback on Apple music streaming. I find it impossible to stream during working hours even for a short while and downloading single 5Mb tracks can take up to 10 minutes. As far as I understand, music bandwidth is less demanding than video so it should surely work better than say YouTube? Is this something that could be optimised by the network team?

Hi AfriOkes,
If I recall, I was told that the AfriGreen account we are given will be the equivalent to whatever "normal" account you already have. I'm on Business Uncapped (which is unshaped).
This morning, I noticed that my SFTP downloads were going at about half the speed of HTTP downloads from the same server. This is a sure sign that there is port-shaping taking place. Can you please confirm the situation?

Also experienced certain slow international connections, started about 10am and now improving. Mail delivery seemed to be sporadic from Office365. Not sure if this is AfriGreen related or a general issue since my mobile mail (MTN) was also affected.
I'm not aware of a problem with Apple specifically, but it could be that Apple don't allow caching of their content locally (I know they don't allow any caching for their updates). We'll need to see where the traffic is coming from.
In terms of bandwidth, audio is pretty minimal. I'm usually using Simfy all the time and it doesn't even affect my traceroutes.
Business rules are the same, so it's more likely to be the server's ability to serve content. remember, we don't shape by port in any case, we use deep packet inspection to shape by packet signature.
...but NOT on Business Uncapped, right?
There is a very small chance that anything AfriGreen could have the same issue as the MTN network. The only common factor here would be the source, so that would be my initial reaction
Yes, NOT on Business - just wanting to stress the point that we don't shape or firewall ports.
Gotcha, thanks.
In any event, the source is not to blame. I guarantee it can serve far more than the mere 8mbps I am asking of it. Will give AfriGreen the benefit of the doubt for now and try my WebAfrica capped account this afternoon when I have a gap. If that's better, you can always switch me back to my "normal" Afrihost account right?
