Afriman, Im now down from 50 download/37.5 P2P shaping policy ratio to 25% download/25% P2P and i havent used the internet last night and today so far, just logged on clientzone now :( This is so upsetting and sad, what is happening in the KZN (Hillcrest area) The network is congested or something :( What a terrible experience so far
 
Everything seems pretty normal on our side. KZN is running pretty smoothly though we close to peak at the moment.

KZN is being shaped to 25% download/25% P2P, please something has to be wrong in the Hillcrest area. Havent used the internet much, i was on a fair 50 %/37.5% but now its almost halved :(

Can't download anything from microsoft windows store.
 
Let it run overnight. I do that with my *cough cough* Linux distros and I always find they're all green when I wake up ;)

By seeing how much you're busy here. you sleep at work.... so by that account you download Linux distro's on Gian's dime? :wtf: :D
 
Not to jinx myself, but my line has been working perfectly and unshaped for 3 weeks now:

That's awesome!! Cape Town is seeing some very light shaping but nothing that will affect the majority of users. Clearly everyone is either on the beach or on the mountain ;)
 
@Afriguy please refer back to my previous posts... why am i being shaped so much :( from 50%/37.5% to 25% download/25% P2P

Great best so far was 75%/75% didn't last long now back to the magic mark 18.8%/6.25%.....Will see later though

Well on the upside Hulu was good last night though
 
it's those top downloaders again. If you are one of them, reading this post, I despise you...

Sorry we missed your post.
Our East IPC region is being shaped at the moment, however it is still nearing the end of peak time now so the shaping should ease soon.

Yes, East IPC, Kwazulu Natal? What is that :(

:D, so maybe we are all getting shape due to afriman downloading all the new Linux distros directly from the IPC, 1 Gbps... :P

I'll have to have words with him, PM me any love notes that I can pass on ;) I hope he's gone home, and not to the backbone link to download those Linux ISOs!
