You're the joke for being so pathetic that you will assume I work for a company simply because I love their service and you don't?
What a man you are.

Did you look at Client Zone to see if you were shaped?
After all the hassles Absa have had I would not be surprised if they were done for fixes.
Please PM us a traceroute on your Afrihost account so that we can investigate.

ABSA was down last night, according to a few other clients. Not sure what the issues were

Realtime also. Last night I couldn't watch the Youtubes at all.
Time to upgrade the Cape Town IPC
Took 3 months just to get 1 IPC so ............ maybe next year! I like they way Afriman says only in EXTREME conditions.
100% REALTIME SPEED
Account Overview
Account Status: Account Active
Shaping Policy: 25% Download/ 6.5% P2P
Shaped again, we have EXTREME conditions every day. I don't mind the shaping, what I am objecting to is his flippant way he says only in EXTREME conditions in the EVENINGS 16:55 evening? Everyday this week EXTREME?
Tell them the truth the high users get shaped EVERYDAY till MAYBE midnight .......... and if you happen to be in Cape Town it is guaranteed

YT is crawling ... no, buffering, on 240p. Not only after hours, it was like this the whole day already.
Not sure what you're quoting me on. From the sounds of it I may have been referring to Business DSL accounts, which have still not been shaped to my knowledge.
We're only shaping Cape Town and regions routed on that IPC due to the increase in demand for torrents and file sharing that could potentially congest the network, and those are the only protocols being affected by shaping.
Services like YouTube should not be affected at all, so if they are, we need to look further into this to get some info about what might be happening in each individual instance.
Rather go to another ISP like I did after all these IPC excuses.
Internet is unusable on Afrihost capped account in the evening (CPT). Moved to another ISP and no problems (IS based). It's cheap for a reason (RE: double your cap for less).
If every other ISP performs 100% and Afrihost does not, then whose fault is it?

so glad for this thread .... was actually considering giving Afrihost a try again, as its been about 6 months since I left them after their move to MTN, and it seems that nothing has really changed ... still shaped/throttled to about 25% of the account you paid for ... guess I will just stay with mweb, unless anyone can recommend another decent ISP
