Rejoice.
Mine is dead... Farking dead!
Nada, pokol niks!

 

[LaraC]

You are on a capped account?

Yes, I am. It is unfair that business accounts are running below par.

 

[Dianysis]

Yes, I am. It is unfair that business accounts are running below par.

This is what speed I got after leaving the torrent for 5 minutes:

 

[Dianysis]

Something seems to happen between 6 and 6:30 pm each night - almost like a switch. Things come to a grinding halt.
Yet speedtest shows:

It starts little before that but after 6pm that's when it starts getting worse. Later it'll probably be even worse, especially after around 9pm.

Yeah...

Definitely should not be happening. Let me see what I can find out.

 

[Dianysis]

Yeah...

Definitely should not be happening. Let me see what I can find out.

Thank you for realising something else is happening too and not just blaming my exchange.

 

[Dianysis]

AfriGenie, does the network go through some kind of "change over" around this time of night?

 

[Dianysis]

Oh and AfriGenie, while I have your attention it is the second night around 6:15 that I can't connect to my vpn or if it does connect it is extremely slow. Any take on that?

 

[Dianysis]

For good measure:

That is one good looking speedtest but......you know the rest.

 

[AfriGenie]

Oh and AfriGenie, while I have your attention it is the second night around 6:15 that I can't connect to my vpn or if it does connect it is extremely slow. Any take on that?

Would you be able to quickly send me your ADSL username and the VPN server that you are connecting to? We need to do a bit of troubleshooting.

AfriGenie, some tracerts:

Are you using a Wi-Fi connection?

 

[Dianysis]

Are you using a Wi-Fi connection?

Yes. May I ask why?

 

[electrofreeze]

there is something that drops the internet speed every night at 6-7pm and recovers again at about 11pm
this has been going on for just over a month now
it happens on both normal and afrigreen and if it is not afrihost then it must be telkom as they have their new system running again for just over a month now as it was switched off because of too many problems

 

[Dianysis]

Got hold of a web africa test account.
Tried the ubuntu torrent that afriguy gave.
Got to 370KB/s within 3 seconds.
Wow. Haven't had p2p speeds line that in ages.

 

[LaraC]

Yes. May I ask why?

Your latency was more than 1 ms. I was just curious.

 

[Dianysis]

And now using my vpn on WA - connects no problem and runs the ubuntu torrent perfectly:



This was routing through UK.
