Other than the speeds being a bit low, the latency is looking really good.

The IPC is active!
The shaping priorities are still enforced, they will slack it now I presume.
 
very awesome!! :) 180-190ms pings to my server in germany from CPT - bit spikey but i guess as jannier says they are tweaking

pings to my server in newlands cpt are very spikey but the low points are between 11 and 30ms compared to a previous minimum of 70ms
 
Speedtests are maxing out at 0.7MBPS (local+int) on my 4MB uncapped (only 8.5GB usage this month so far) - not cool... kinda killing the excitement of the new IPC :(
 
My line used to speed test at 8.40mbs to a recommended server from Speedtest.net. I am from Cape town.
Ping used to be constant 34ms but since yesterday 22 Feb 2013 at around 7pm, its now as good as 12ms but my speedtest maxes out at 2.8mbs and sometimes the ping goes really bad (600ms) and line max speed of 1mbs.

My line is still synching at 10mbs though.
I have rebooted router, logged a call with afrihost and they have also reset my account their side, but no good.

Anyone also experiences problems? Afriman - can you perhaps help?
