Afrihost Uncapped DSL Feedback

AfriMan said:
I guess the next step would be to run the same tests on another ISP backbone (not Axxess) so we can compare. Do you have another ISP account to test with? Maybe drop me a PM so we can co-ordinate. We must stick to the same conditions (time tested, length, etc).

Telkom gave me their login for their guest account and i got exactly the same info/ speed. 6.2 on my 10mb line.

Sounds like your issue might then be related to your local network or line. :(
 
Thats what ive been thinking from the start but yet telkom are saying its the other way around..

anyways thank you for your info and assistance.

Not sure how it can jump from 8 to 64 with no one on the line. PS just got the line upgraded to Fast path today, so that 64 would have been 100+
 
So what's happening with the speed? I'm barely hitting 1mbit on a 4mbit line in YouTube. The issue happens on both Uncapped and Free 1GB Afrihost account. Free 1GB atleast hits 2.5Mbit peak. My free WebAfrica account hits the full 4mbit. What's going on?

How'd you go about getting it back onto fast path?

There is an issue in the East at the moment affecting performance of the DSL accounts there. Did the drop in speed happen this afternoon?

Yup it did. Not the first day it drops in the afternoon though. Happened last week but I didn't bother testing accounts so didn't post properly.

Evening!

There is an issue in the East at the moment that our Team is working on with our Upstream providers. :( Your Connection's performance will be affected by this issue.
 
Hello again Guys!

Just an update, the issue in the East has been resolved, performance should be returning to normal.

Path of Exile stopped functioning on my 2MB business uncapped this morning, it would load and flatline 1500 ping.
Everything else is functioning correctly.
Switched to my Mobile 6 afrihost and while working was not great.
Now both are not working. Submitted a ticket with my Traceroute.
Still nothing, this is not my idea of fun.
I even tried both the Afrihost and Afrigreen logins.
