Anyone else experiencing terribly slow internet right now?

If so who is your ISP and where are you based.

Axxess / Port Elizabeth

TelkomInternet / Port Elizabeth

No problem.

Vox & Webafrica - super slow, very high pings.
Telkom guest account is getting full line speeds though.

JHB N.E Suburbs

 

[Rendier]

Latency : 700

Download : 2.4MB

Upload : 0.4MB

I have a 10MB Business Uncapped Account.

Worst part is Axxess status bars are green. What's the point...

Vox super super slow

Vox super super slow

also in JHB?

I don't think my issues are ISP related.

Tried afrihost, webafrica & vox - all the same, mostly can't even connect unless I use the google dns.
Telkom guest is fine though.

Seems like a telkom issue.

How do you reach that conclusion?

How do you reach that conclusion?

Because I've tried 3 different ISPs and they are all incredibly slow, and won't validate unless I use google DNS.

Those 3 use IS backbone right?

I don't know.. do they?

 

[MickeyD]

yes

 

[assagai]

yes

Ah.. so possibly an IS problem then?

Which ISPS aren't on IS? I'll try sign up with another and see.

 

[ScottulusMaximus]

Terribly fast here on AH I'm afraid.

 

[Prof.Merlin]

I thought afrihost uses Neotel, vox uses datapro?

 

[xodosman123]

Uncapped JHB Kodi streaming perfectly..

 

[Emjay]

Vox is Vox. Vox Telecom bought DataPro out ages ago. Also, Vox is a tier 1 ISP, so they do not use any other ISP for their inter-connectivity.

Web Afrika k@k stadig

If so who is your ISP and where are you based.

Axxess / Port Elizabeth

Axxess(Home) & Vox(Work) / Cape Town

Both been slow today
But have seen that non DNS based requests are unaffected (IP address) on both networks. DNS problems?

 

[DJ...]

yes

No, only one on that list uses IS backbone...
