Afrihost Uncapped DSL Feedback

Good luck with that refund! I've been trying for years!

Can't even open my email at this stage. Jippee. Another peerfect night of pure internet bliss...

It's night and day switching to a different Isp, 30th June can't come fast enough.
 
Evening Guys!

My apologies for not posting an update sooner. The issue in the East has been resolved, but it there is now a separate, unrelated problem in the South. :(

This may be causing slow or intermittent connectivity. Our Team is working with our Upstream providers to resolve this as quickly as possible. I've updated the Network Status Page.

Thanks AfrigGenie, hope it get resolved quickly. If it painful!

MegaSurf WiFi?

I tried to do a search, but came up empty handed.

What are the feelings, good or bad about this service provider?

I think it's probably best to start a new discussion thread if you want to talk about other service providers. Let's leave this thread for Afrihost Support related queries. :)

Is Steam still slow for you? Hope you're taking advantage of Payday 2 being free!
Seemed to be fine but I did dip to 70KBs prior the post, now that our office has 300/300 fibre I do most of my downloads here.

That's a decent line... ;) Keep us posted with feedback on your home connection.

Shameful. It must be the moisture from the beatific drooling that issues forth whenever the Afrihost idiots are faced with router blinkenlights that causes the problem.

Not sure what you're saying here?

This looks like a normal international result. Let me know if you have any other test results to show me. :)
 
Anyone else having issues streaming anything to watch?

I can't watch anything right now.

Sorry to hear that? Do you perhaps have any specific information for me such as what services you were trying to access such as Youtube, Netflix, Showmax, Twitch or any other swashbuckling site?
