Had another 30-second 'disconnect'. Still connected, PPP still up, but traceroute ends inside MTN's network again with a 'network unreachable' ICMP reply.

everytime that happens, WoW lags out and disconnects from the server... annoying as trying to get stuff finished and its taking 3hrs longer than normal
 
lol @ "Medium Impact" on the website for Uncapped clients but when you open a ticket it's allways states "High" so then i am sure the Uncapped Clients should have it as a "High Impact" service from Afrihost?

OTOH, ping times are now messed up again. As normal, these are supposed to be 11-12ms:
$ ping -c 10 105.236.3.129

I am now getting a weird thing on afrihost where pptp traffic is being oddly shaped. L2tp to the same destination is fine, just pptp is being shaped, so much that not even 100k is allowed though at a time. Afrihost is causing me a real headache now for business, and this business account I have sucks piles.
 
NNTP currently flying at 5.5 Mbps. More than advertised. :)

I tried to play Diablo 3 at 11H30 this morning. I was disconnected twice within the space of 20 mins and then switched to the FNB account which was rock solid.
 
this is off a trail account with another ISP (uncapped 4mb package)

Speeds back to down indeed. 4MB. This is a new low for me. FS.
