Afrihost - Pure Fibre Feedback Thread Part 2

Hi Afrigirl, On Saturday we had no Internet due to a break in the Fiber at Raceway (Metro Fiber), After being down the entire day they managed to fix it but since then we had Issues at night during peak Hours where my latency would constantly be 100+ms, I have a 1000/500 line but its barely hits 15Mb at Night

I'm Hardwired running 1Gbs Directly to the router, Starts around 6pm and is much better after 10pm at night, Tried logging tickets with the helpdesk and all they do is ask me to reboot the router and ONT.

Please help as I'm doing remote work During this time and I'm not able to work
Hi.

We apologise for the inconvenience. I have logged a fault with MFN and will update you as soon as feedback is received.
 
Since the outage this afternoon (and for a bit before that), I've had abysmal performance from my 500mb line. Maybe I can squeeze 5mbs out of it with higher than usual latency.
Actual work, like pulling docker containers, apt/apk installs are extremely slow.

It feels like the line is throttled or there is extreme congestion.

EDIT: I have a router in front of the modem that can monitor bandwidth usage, it's always less than 10mbs, so it's not saturation from my side going unnoticed.
Just wanted to give a shout out to @Afrigirl who spent quite a bit of time helping me resolve this.
Again, thank you very much.
