Everything goes slow after 18H00.
I just stated my game PC for the first time in weeks. Will check my steam downloads...

Okay, checked... Not downloading anything on P2P at the moment. The torrent avg speed was less than 2kb/s with 5 seeders left so I stopped the download. Using uTorrent for Windows on the NUC,
No torrent ware on my MacBook at the moment as I am testing Mac OSX 10.11 Beta.

Steam running full speed at the moment. Downloading updates for Flight Sim as well as COD AW. Will check if it still runs full speed after 18H00. A small 1.8 GB update

Please paste some test results that I can take a look at.
A few good examples to pinpoint the issue are:

Torrents
HTTP downloads
FTP download
Speedtest to local and international destinations
Ping over 50 requests
Traceroutes/ MTR
 
I send an issue but the website need to be update to give you a reference number I get no mail the last times it was take 3 days to get reply

All the feedback queries get looked at in depth. :)
 
Alright so as reported yesterday. Told Afriman/guy that I was going to check properly today.

P2P is basically dead but HTTP downloads are full speed. I've tried torrenting on 2 PC's and both have the same result. I even did a fresh install of uTorrent and tried, same thing.
I used a p2p testing file with a ~30:1 ratio and it just sat on "downloading metadata".

Tried with the free 1GB with Web Africa and it instantly completed metadata download and then started downloading at max speed. I changed back to Afrigreen again to make sure and it was back to sitting on "connecting to peers".

Very interesting! Thank you for your testing... I'll ask Afriman to send through your Afrigreen username to our networking team. Incidentally, do you have a Capped or an Uncapped account?

Hmm that second ping test doesn't look good! :( Which accounts were you using to do the different ping tests?
 
Alright so as reported yesterday. Told Afriman/guy that I was going to check properly today.

P2P is basically dead but HTTP downloads are full speed. I've tried torrenting on 2 PC's and both have the same result. I even did a fresh install of uTorrent and tried, same thing.
I used a p2p testing file with a ~30:1 ratio and it just sat on "downloading metadata".

Tried with the free 1GB with Web Africa and it instantly completed metadata download and then started downloading at max speed. I changed back to Afrigreen again to make sure and it was back to sitting on "connecting to peers".
Would you mind posting the p2p link and I'll test if I have the same result as you do.
