Hi

I used to have a 10mb premium account with mweb running on a 10mb adsl line,

I have moved to a new area and unfortunately only have 4mb available,

I play a fair bit of games online, mostly dota2, I also download anything from 300 to 800 gigs a month from a dedicated box,


My question, regardless of cost, what or how can I get the best performance from a 4mb connection without going above 1K a month for an adsl account,

the Afrihost and Mweb business adsl looks promising but not too sure,

any advice :)

Lol, kinda contradicting yourself a little there. Erm, from what I have heard/read, Afrihost business accounts are solid. You will get full speeds all the time. Mweb Ive only heard bad things about, having said that it was not the business account. All in all, I would go Afri. They really have impressed me.

hehe kinda did, however going above 1k for a 4mb account is looking toward fibre and honestly thats a bit much

I'm on Afrihost 4mb standard uncapped and its been so brilliant so far I haven't even seen any reason to go for a business account and I'm quite a heavy user, about 500GB per month. Granted most of my downloads are between 11pm and 7am

You will get throttled if you use you uncapped - go rather with afrihost business its good internet and has a good price with an optional static IP for R50
