Considering Axxess Premium Uncapped

[MisterV]

I am having quite a bit of issues with my current ISP and I am looking to move to Axxess. I have problems with international traffic after 6 and most of the services I use, utilize international servers some of them being League of Legends and watching extensive amount of twitch streams. I am also on ADSL unfortunately.

I was wondering if anyone can share their experience with Axxess and more specifically their Premium uncapped package, as don't want to sit with the same problem that I have now. I called them today and asked a few questions, the lady seemed to be quite clued up!

Also can someone that is with Axxess do a trace route from Pretoria/Johannesburg to BBC London ?
Replies much appreciated

You should sign up for one of their small accounts while you're waiting so you can see what their network performance is like for yourself. Afrihost and Axxess have been doing quite alright since the move back to IS. I think they have routing over SACS now as well.

This is good news! Thanks for the feedback.

They're still on the same network they've been on for year - Echotel.. Echotel recently switched over to Liquid Telecom entirely. But definitely no IS in there.

Ach, I thought it was IS. Echotel rings a bell now.

well if this means i can enjoy good international speeds day and night, it would be a good thing i guess. Liquid Telecom is really good from what i have heard

Liquid Telecom is the bee's knees! It's been awesome so far on Axxess.

I have endless issues on Twitch using my Axxess capped acc. 40Mbps VDSL

Sometimes can barely stream at 480P

40Mbps? Cause I have 4Mbps and I stream most nights on Twitch at 480p using Axxess. Getting 10Mbps fibre soon and if it's anything less than constant 480p I would complain never mind 40Mbps

Ok, so just a update. I decided to move to Axxess over the past weekend and it has been nothing but absolute internet bliss. I can watch twitch streams after 6 in the evening! Imagine that. The tech guys are also very helpful. Really satisfied with the service so far!
