Afrihost Uncapped DSL Feedback

Yeah you guys aren't the only ones experiencing issues. Also had the Google Play store struggling to download app updates. Some web pages don't even load on my PC either.
 
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.

That's not good at all! :( How was the connection to Path to Exile on Sunday?
 
Afrihost throttling kicks in mid Super Rugby game.............thanks Afrihost...... now go and **** yourselves!!!!!!!

What package are you on with us? We will only ever throttle the Home Uncapped accounts.
 
That's not good at all! :( How was the connection to Path to Exile on Sunday?

Same - nothing worked with Path of Exile, regardless of connection.
As you can see from the packet loss it wasn't minor.
All other forms of internet media (although slow) were working.
Steam connected properly, youtube worked (a bit slow), websites, other games.
Path of exile will not work with Afrihost and prior to the weekend has worked fine for a long time.

Could you PM me your details quickly so that I can check what's going on.
 
Im at work, did you pick up anything regarding the non existent Google play updates?

I think so, we'll need to see if the issue re-occurs. I may need your account details if you notice it again please.
 
Curious about this, 8MB uncapped bundle, but syncing at 10?

You might be on an interleaved profile. :) The Uncapped account will limit you to 8Mbps. It would be interesting to see what result you get when testing with a Capped account, though. :)

Today is off to a great start, looks like there is an issue with international.

I'm not aware of any issues with international traffic.

When I try reach reddit, I get an error stating " all of our servers are busy right now please try again in a minute. " So the issue could be on their side. Are you experiencing issues with any other sites?

I was, it was a couple of international sites, ign.com cnn.com reddit.com all back to normal again, p2p, steam and speedtest were functioning as normal, very strange.
