Afrihost Uncapped vs. MWEB Uncapped: Shaping and service

[Vrotappel]

I left Openweb Gold for Afrihost and so far so good. No complaints from my side. Saving more than R200 bucks a month.

What line speed were you on vbj?

50-70gb could fall in the throttle window.

mweb you can do about 200-300gb

Just a quick note, our throttle window is definitely NOT 50-70GB, and you can move 250GB+ on our 4Mbps before hitting throttle.

Thanks for the info guys- I think I'll give the Afrihost 4meg uncapped a try. I'll post information on the speed etc once I'm up and running.

4Mb

Mweb all they way, YouTube has never buffered for me on a 4meg line, 500GB seems to be the threshold on Mweb 4meg accounts, stay under 500GB and Mweb will play nice...

Is there no buffering for 720p youtube videos as well on your 4meg mweb account Hummercellc?

Youtube performance as per above, usenet at 100%, world of warcraft (EU) at 209ms.

I can definitely agree with this as I am on Afrihost 4mb uncapped (bundled) and sitting on over 100GB. I have yet to hit the threshold. Will probably see by end of the month :wtf:
