Ill update in 30mins how experiance is.
 
My upload speeds on the test are spot on with no issue. Its the download speeds that hang around 15Mbps on most tests.

Edit: still very inconsistent speeds so not getting that 15Mbps all the time, just when the line is good I guess.

Still having the same issue, any word from Frogfoot about finding the issue yet? I'm trying to download the Speedtest app for windows, but the way it's going it will probably take me the whole day to get it.

Edit: Looks like things have stabilized from about 4:30am, I've had 10mins so far of nearly full line speed. Hopefully it stays that way.

Edit2: Been about 45mins, line is still going fine, much less packet loss but the speeds are very sluggish.

Soon as it hit 6am everything has gone down the drain once again.

This is pretty much the standard test result whenever I do one no matter which server I choose, even to AH in Joburg.
