Afrihost - Pure Fibre Feedback Thread Part 2

crxboy said:
It appears my ProtonVPN (using OpenVPN on my router) is either being throttled by AH, or ProtonVPN servers are very slow. I'm only getting 25% of my line speed when connected to the VPN.

I get the same result on all of Proton's South African servers. I get 100% line speed as soon as I disconnect OpenVPN.

Is there anything I can do to remedy the above?

TIA

Additional info:
If I use the ProtonVPN app (which I prefer not to, as I want VPN at router level) I get 50% of my AH line speed.

Try using them with Wireguard just to check what speed you get.

It is not about compatibility. The device is old, and I noticed that a previous client had the same issues but on Openserve and switching from a Dlink helped.
You can try to update to the lastest firmware of the dlink.

Indeed.

There are more changes to other FNO namely Zoom Fibre and MetroFibre and these changes are live on our website.

For MetroFibre there are now 2 offerings depending on the network in your area.

MetroFibre Nexus which is their existing network and MetroFibre Nova which are new areas MetroFibre are targeting.

Zoom Fibre clients get free double-speed upgrades and a new super low entry-level package.
