Looks like v6 is from Akamai directly and v4 from our cache.

Can you turn ipv6 off and see if streaming works? If it does I will log a ticket with Akamai to ask why ipv6 is not served from our caches.
 
Twitch has been buffering a lot lately for me lately. Anyone else have the problem?

Will do that and let you know. :thumbsup:
 
Hi. I am in WIlro Park Roodepoort. Currently on Vuma Aerial. At the moment, Openserve is now running fibre down my street, which is also going to be Aerial? When I look on the AH fibre packages for my street (to compare packages), Vuma is no longer listed as a provider in my area. Only pre-order for Openserve. Is there something I should know?

Nevermind: Small print at the bottom said: Multiple providers. One of those days...
But at least I see Vuma is cheaper for my package than Openserve (500/200 vs 500/250)

openserve>Vuma id rather pay more than be with a fno that has a fault every 2 days

Hi,

Did something just fall off a cliff - JHB - Openserve/Afrihost ?
Screen grabs below - I'm on 500/250 :

[Edit]
With Cloudflare, seems ok'eish but still not 500/250...

Connection crawling tonight, Metrofibre PE.

Clientzone barely loads, everything except google related sites acting slow too. So far it's only YouTube that works fine.

Seems good (was good about an hour or so after my last post), however latency has increased by 30-40ms for the last few days, including local servers.
I will check with Metrofibre if there are any backhaul issues for PE.
