Streaming football game earlier on about 200kbps and was fine for the most part, stopped once or twice to buffer but other than that was fine. Haven't tried higher quality streaming today.

Direct downloading still slow.

mightyupload.com, 180upload.com, movreel.com etc, all averaging around 100kbps on 6mbps line.

Edit* 720p youtube is still struggling too.

Well whatever change you made has stopped the constant time-outs I was getting on Afrigreen :) At least I can use the account now.
 
Connection disasterously slow transferring files over OpenVPN ( UDP port 1194 )

41kB/s when I am used to getting my full line speed.

10MB Business uncapped.

Thanks for the feedback!
What's your P2P like?

Thanks for posting! I think we still need to look at VPN as a protocol, not too sure how much tweaking has gone into it. I'm sure it'll improve though.

I haven't tested that as yet today. Though around 3am torrents were going at good speed, averaging around 500kbps.

Will check peer to peer little later.

Was running 300-400 almost Full Speed for Afrigreen on my 4 Mbps DSL Uncapped ACC.

Fingers crossed! One week left before I'm going to have no choice but to ice my account until this is all sorted. Man's gotta have internet :)

Just doublechecked, hitting ~250k on the old @afrihost.co.za account, so it is probably something that needs looking at on Afrigreen. 250 is not 900+ but it's certainly better :)

I could probably get by like this, actually.

Meh, it's not the best - but it does sound better compared to the experience you've seen previously.
We've got a heap of feedback from you guys that's all being categorised and worked through, so progress is being made every day. Can only get better from here hey :)
 
Testing torrents now

Averaging around 200-250kbps on 6mbps line.

Not the best but better than my direct downloading.
 
Still haven't received a POC account. But the MTN network is slightly better since users have moved to AfriGreen...
 
Hey guys

Just a quick overall update, we're updating the official page with known and resolved issues. If you're using your Afrigreen account you can check it out here at the bottom of the page :)

The list will only be visible for views coming from the Afrigreen IP range.
 
From averaging around 200-25kbps, torrents have now just died. average 0.5kbps
 
I also haven't received my test account details yet.....and its not in ClientZone either

Maybe you will go onto AfriBlue, or you'll just go blue in the face asking? I know you're green with envy not being on AfriGreen yet :)
