Just phoned Axcess apparently some Hellkom cables have been stolen which means some of the links are down = uncapped accounts remain throttled until it has been sorted.:rolleyes:
 
Axxess Semi-Shaped... Slooooow international

Anyone else on Axxess Semi-Shaped experiencing very slow international speeds at the mo? Sometimes it looks like there's NO activity (have BWMeter open) and then after 30 seconds (up to a few minutes!) something starts happening. I thought Axxess was great after reading reviews and when I saw they got a MyBroadband award, but so far I'm not impressed. Range of other issues as well... sometimes no throughput for a while and then its ok again. Switched to openDNS which seems to have fixed the problems with their pathetic DNS servers, but throughput / connectivity remains an issue. They also take super long to respond to tickets opened on their site.
 
I spend R400-900pm on bandwidth, currently using Axxess semi-shaped. I've noticed really slow speeds after hours (I'm a WoW player and I've often had over 1000ms ping times in the past few weeks) I'm assuming it's IS that's been having issues, and not specifically Axxess.

Today's been a mess, regular disconnections. I'm not keen to move back to SAIX bandwidth since its so darned expensive compared th IS bandwidth. But with the current issues on IS, I'll be left with no real alternative.
