Afrihost Uncapped ADSL Feedback (Pt3)

That's interesting - I didn't think the issue was DNS related to be honest. Where did you change this? On your PC?

Yes, on my PC, for the wireless adapter.

I could ping 8.8.8.8, but DNS wasn't resolving at all. So I figured that it's a DNS issue, added 8.8.8.8 manually, and now DNS is working.

Note that this is for mobile only.

ADSL still is funky - dead as a doornail.
 
Thanks Bud, I'm up and running on Web Africa...

Is it also 1Gb free for life ?

don't know if it's free for life, but anyway can be backup before Afrihost can fix their problem. I'm on the free trial Mweb account, it works for 7days
 
Hey that sucks!

Sorry we didn't deliver for you today. I know we're experiencing some problems at the moment, but we should have this worked out soon - we have the top guys at MTN and from our side working on this. Once we're back up and running, you should be experiencing that 10Mbps lekkerness :)

Thanks man..I tested someone's 2mb afrihost on my account last night and worked better than my premuim Mweb 4 meg account. Twitch.tv didnt buffer on afrihost 2 meg, but every minute on Mweb.

That's awesome - great to hear that someone new is discovering Pure Internet Joy. Let me know when you're up and running on your account, once these issues are behind us :)
 
Hey Afri Social Media Reps,

I bought a 'turbocharge' for R29 earlier, just before the auth issue. I was not able to use it, as time ran up.

Is there any way i can get a refund on that?

Capped Account Details.

Morning to all that is off on this nice morning.
I have just something to ask this morning. I have moved over from uncapped to capped 4meg 200 gig yesterday. The account went active this morning 00:01. I use my networx proggie to check my data usage. This morning, 00:30 I played around with some downloads here and there to see the speed, and it is good!!!!!!, for a change since 20th April.
Can someone just tell me why does afrihost data allocation graph and my networx program differ in data. I have attached a pic of afri and my networx overlapping on one pic. The left graph shows afrihost, and according to them I used 1.4gig this morning. My graph shows me 600+-.
Why this big differencr??

Glad to hear that you're enjoying the capped experience.

Remember that your PC will report data usage in realtime. We get our usage reports from Telkom, sometimes delayed and sometimes they squashed together covering a period. They do generally line up in the big picture, if you see a period of no activity and then sudden usage in the graphs. There's not much we can do to change that, it's always been an issue with non-realtime data accounting we get :(
