Afrihost Uncapped ADSL Feedback

Not open for further replies.
I really need to do an online assessment for a job but cannot even get the international page to open. If I cannot get this completed it means I might miss out on getting a job, which sucks after 2,5years of unemployment. Have already lost one contract but not keen to lose the chance for a decent permanent expat job, just because our connections blows.

that took forever to give a result for download. the window is almost gone and I need to do this. Been forced to go elsewhere for bandwith right now.

If your line is with Afrihost ask them to reset/recreate the port.
If not then Telkom or the company where you adsl line rental goes too.

EDIT: past a tracert too www.google.com so we can see how your throe put looks like.
