Oh my word. Green has been so terrible since Friday 17:00! Tried to skype just now, my upload speed was perfect, but couldn't download anything or even load a website. Had to switch to 3G

We'll definitely to check this out. Skype was great for me this weekend, as well as downloads.

Any specific links or tests I can recreate here?

Seems like all the downloaders has moved to afrigreen. Speed here is terrible for downloads, but going back to the normal accounts things run fine.

I can promise you that we are definitely not congested or running out of capacity on Afrigreen. From what I understand, even with no shaping we are well below capacity at all times. We have to artificially induce shaping in order to test this at the moment.

We have seen a reduction in demand on our main MTN network thanks to the traffic moved to Afrigreen, so we do expect a better performance in general, especially over the weekend when businesses are quiet.

We'll definitely need to look at why you're not seeing good AfriGreen performance. Can you post any tests you ran?

Hey there

Any details on what specifically was slow? Downloads were pretty normal for me over the weekend when I tested on torrent, HTTP download YouTube.

Torrent came to a standstill on Afrigreen. If I switch back to the normal afrihost account, they run at full speed. Connect on Afrigreen, crawls, back on normal full speed. So, at the moment I'm back on the normal account.

I was definitely getting good throughput on my side. It could be that switching accounts paired you with a different seeder (s). Very hard to say. Happy to test that specific file link for you.

Is on my home pc. Will PM you when I get home and also check speeds again.
 
Yo Afripeeps - so, after getting frustrated with my pings spiking through the roof whenever my wife accesses FB applications I tried testing it with AfriVanilla. It does not happen on AfriNormal, only with AG. AfriMan, I am sure you still have my access details, or would you like me to send them again?

Hey Slaught3r,

Afrifella here, covering for Afriman. That sounds odd, I'd love to have a look at your account. :)

I can Ask Afriman for your details, but it may be quicker if you send me a PM. Thanks!

For some reason I cannot receive mails through my client. It says server has timed out.
Is other settings being used?

Hey Bashley,

Mail settings should remain the same while on Afrigreen. Is your domain hosted with us as well?
 
AfriGreen is running like a well oiled machine. :)

Don't touch anything. Even mine seems to be working nicely - faulty exchange and all.

No testing scheduled at this time. :) We're not touching anything at the moment.

Great to hear good feedback!
