Yip it sucks.

Lets see if everything turns to "normal" this coming week, when the schools reopen.

AH better sort their nonsense quickly, otherwise I will test their money back guarantee in the next 2 weeks.
 
Client zone says no shaping but testmy.net says 60kb/s. Switch to capped account and 105kb/s. Back to uncapped and 60 Kbps/s. I am being shaped before shaping is even applied? Come on afrihost, sort this out.

[-]Haha, likewise, on my 2Mb. No shaping applied, but a Microsoft download is coming down at 150KB/s :/ [/-]
NNTP is now running at max.

Mine too! :D

But... how do you strike through? Whenever I use those strike through things on the web, it comes out all jumbled on the site
 
Right, so I bought a 10gb capped account, and set my mikrotik router in such a way that the server goes over uncapped and rest of the house does capped account. Big difference.

So they were gooi-ing mielies on your uncapped? :D
 
Morning Afrihosters!

I think many have seen that we've managed to streamline our shaping policies to be a little less severe, but we've also seen demand slowly falling back within expected levels, as we've expected them to.

For the present moment, we're not shaping anyone except the very heaviest users, and still to a fairly light extent.

We'll still need to monitor throughout the weekend, but hopefully overall experience will be back to what we're used to :)

Awesome, thanks :)
(for the first time in almost a week I am not shaped ;))
Did you get my pm yesterday by any chance? The only feedback I require on that now is the bundle.

Hi Afriman,

This may be my local exchange but I can not be sure as it is very intermittent. Every 4th ping jumps to over 1000ms while the others are all 150ms. This is pinging bbc.co.uk
