@AfriMan

Any news on the eu routing optimization? I realize that the VPN im using is unstable for some reason on apex legends, so im playing without it now and its not great. I'm getting 200ms on AH vs the 155-160ms i should be getting. Considering getting a cheap capped account from vox just so i can play apex with lower ping.

I know it's another expense, but I've had excellent results with Express VPN with regards to gaming stability. Definitely superior to NordVPN for EU gaming, until this latency situation is (hopefully) sorted out.
 
Had an email form Sreejith C - Afrihost Support and the good news is that my line is now with Afrihost. Thanks for your help AfriMan:thumbsup:

Great news.

I'm still waiting for any feedback whatsoever since I first logged my issue. Getting tired of the "fibre ops team" excuse they keep throwing back at me.
 
Gooday

I need to know what are the latencies to EU. Read a while ago they are battling.
 
Anyone know where to get an openserve service number? what does it look like? Need this to apply for Afrihost pure fibre. TIA

Who is your current ISP

Your service number will look like this: B**********

We are escalating this with Openserve, we've been in direct contact with a senior manager there. We really hope to have this sorted ASAP.

Everything is looking pretty normal on my side

That's pretty much max for me on download and upload.

I'd be pretty surprised if anyone is getting better speeds on 1Gbps.
 
Hi @AfriMan. Tried applying through website. All goes well until checkout. Click checkout and puts me back to log-in. Rinse , repeat. And then, potential stupid question, when I cancel with my current ISP, do I need to specify I am transferring to Afrihost, due to the fibre line pool?

That is pretty weird. Have you tried clearing your cache and cookies?

You don't need to say who you are transferring to. When your line goes into the holding pool, the first ISP to request it will take ownership.
