I am the first to complain when something is not working or not working properly so I thought it would be appropriate to mention when they actually do work.

For the last week I have noticed Afrihost speeds to be very reliable on a 4mbs line, I have not dipped under 3mb/s on a speedtest yet, and downloads are reaching 400kb/s at times.

Nice going!

Yeah speeds have been great but the latancy has jumped up by 100 in some games. Vids have also start buffering again in the night time...
 
Now I've experienced the opposite - the past week or so my Afrihost account has been very unreliable in the evenings. It disconnects for no apparent reason, and at times it slows down so much that I can't even load IOL. I'm not sure when it started; I might have switched over to my prepaid Gb around the same time, I don't know if that would be slower than a normal non-prepaid account? It might not even be related to Afrihost at all. I think I'm going to have to get a prepaid Gb from Axxess and switch between them and see if Afrihost is worse or not.
 
We have 2 x 3GB capped accounts with Afrihost... must say that speed has not dipped, getting +- 3.48mb/s constantly. Keep it up A/Host!!. Now looking at 3rd account.

Fixed.

Seriously though, I'm pretty sure the majority of ex-Afrihost uncapped subscribers would have stayed with them if only they had actually communicated... anything.
 
I guess we should be thanking the guys that left then :):)
