Vpn's are also an issue - as shown last night with tests I posted.

I just lost a huge chunk of my afrihost and afrithanks data because i was unable to use it thanks to the bad performance.

Firstly, we are paying for AfriRed which is a joke at the moment ... so whether I refer to red green or friggin purple the bottom line is that I am pointing @ the network Afrihost is supposed to be giving me.
Stop regurgitating sales BS to me, I am a salesman and I am offended by it
Secondly: You say the accounts are working but there are problems with P2P ... ... Dude are you reading what you typing ... if there are problems then it means IT ISN'T WORKING.
Sort this crap out ... call a spade a spade and give us our REMUNERATION !!!!

Only capped clients get some kind of compensation via the AfriThanks data.
Oh and I really don't care how many times this has been discussed - nothing has been given back to the uncapped users.
No amount of saying "we have always given back" has changed that fact yet.

How does that help me now ? ... How does that help me with the thousands we are throwing @ Afrihost just to get financially raped by the company
For those experiences issues on the account, please include the following info in your posts. This will help us pass consolidated info onto our network team.
Account type:
Services performing poorly:
Services performing normally:
A speedtest from the MyBB server http://speedtest.mybroadband.co.za/
Once posted, we can consolidate the day's results and pass on what is and what isn't working. Example as follows:

Once posted, we can consolidate the day's results and pass on what is and what isn't working. Example as follows:
EXAMPLE FEEDBACK said:Account type: 10Mbps Business Uncapped
Services performing poorly: P2P, specifically torrents.
Services performing normally: Browsing, streaming.
Compensation has been discussed multiple times before. This is something that's a management decision, so not something I can get directly involved in, sorry.

I have been logging a few calls since October last year that usenet services is not working at certain times during the day. Afrigreen did not even exist then.
Currently I cannot use any AfriColour to play games like Diablo. This has been an ongoing issue as well.
So no, It is not just AfriGreen having a problem. It is Afrihost having problems
I don't think Usenet in general has been an issue - I use it extensively across both network and haven't noticed any problems there.
Please complete some tests, specifically for Afrigreen, so I can have this passed onto our team.

@the guys that are constantly experiencing issues every night:
Why don't you just move?
Surely the money you save on being with a cheap ISP is not worth the pain and misery you have to go through every day?

Calls logged October, November, April and june. Exact same issue every single time. During evening cannot access on AfriRed.
It is fine for a while on Afrigreen not anymore, still not not on AfriRed.
Maybe drop me a PM with some references numbers that I can chase up for you.
Hey guys
The network guys have given us an update on the Afrigreen POC.
The feedback and participation of everyone here is vital to everything that has got us this far, and both the network team and all the reps are supremely grateful for everyone’s contribution.
We’ve now come to the end of the POC phase and are preparing to move into production. We have already started implementing the infrastructure required to have points of presence (IPC) in 3 regions (North, South & East).
We believe that LAB simulations aren’t always a true reflection of how we use the internet so part of the POC required that we simulate a constrained network.
Due to physical limitations on the physical Network Core Equipment we cannot upgrade the POC IPC capacity but we’re very excited that the new Network Core Equipment is being deployed and will soon be ready for use.
We’ll keep Afrigreen running and we’ll migrate it to the new production network over the next few weeks (in October). We’ll be sending out official communications early next week (from Gian, our CEO) with more accurate dates.
Till then, our team will continue running tests on Afrigreen with intentions of making the migrations as smooth as possible.
You can still use your afrihost.co.za ADSL username on the MTN network and we’ll let you know once we’ve migrated Afrigreen to the new network.
We’re very grateful to have had the opportunity to drive demand on the POC as high as possible to simulate conditions in the real world, like if we experience a major loss of IPC capacity. This has been extremely valuable to the team to be able to test scenarios and network policies that will ensure that we provide the best experience we can under difficult conditions.
Again, we’d like to thank everyone for testing, providing feedback and just being part of this awesome new phase of Afrihost’s development as a service provider. We’re honoured that so many have been so diligent in their feedback both here and via ClientZone, you’ve made a huge contribution to the new network!

since when does afrihost decide what to delete and what not this is an open forum and people should be able to express themselves and not have the power to delete things they dont like
shows you corruption is everywhere
shows you corruption is everywhere
We're here to engage with our clients, not see abuse posted towards us.
Those are the forum rules, you can follow up with the mods about what is deleted.
Hi! Just one thing,
Your DNS servers are taking forever to update. Changed my domain's nameservers about 3 days ago, and it still points to the old IP :/ (Google DNS is pointing correctly).
Other than that, everything's perfect!

Odd, an NS update usually takes 24 hours or so.
Drop me a PM with the domain name and I can check out where the delays are coming in.

I did not "abuse" you, whatever that means. But anyway, I no longer care.
