Afrihost - Pure Fibre Feedback Thread Part 2

I have to agree, 1Gbps is feeling slow now. 2Gbps + would be nice

 

[Bliksis]

When will we be getting 2.5Gbps speeds, my 1Gbps starting to feel slow

What are you using the bandwidth for? I also had 1Gbps, but then I went back down to 200mbps. Even that I never max out but it's no real saving going down to 100.

Haha OK. I've tried to justify having 1gbps at home, but I'm just not using that.

It is overkill, but it's a nice to have with 50+GB file sizes

What does the back look like though?

@AfriNatic
Do you supposedly know when we will be getting over 1Gbps speeds?

What speed do you get from Steam, if I may ask? Close to line speed?

I have my Mikrotik ready for 2.5 Gbps, and my PC already has a 10 Gbps NIC Alas, the ONT is stuck on 1 Gbps. The bigger question is, will my CPU and hard drive be able to handle those speeds

Fastest I have seen was 93MB/s

I've been bumped from 200/200 to 250/250.. However my upload speed is in the 140 range and never changed since the upgrade. @Afrigirl can you assist




as you can see from the history below, the upload speed never moved compared to the download speed as from 16 Feb

It's looking clear now. Might have been rerouted.
