Welcome. International is not always that great. It all depends though, I am getting okay-ish speeds internationally but nowhere near full line speed. I'd say its closer to 50Mbps

Can you be more specific :)
 
Twitch was working fine and now suddenly it's really bad tonight. Dying and then coming back. Then going completely dead.

@PBCool as per my previous post, any reason why international speeds are abysmal at the moment?

Vuma trenched 100/100 - Panorama CPT

Can't watch Twitch at all... today specifically.

Major international issues tonight. Can't even game, or download an update from Battle.net at more than 600KB/sec. 200/200 line.
 
Agree - wtf - I just joined this ISP a few days ago after all the good reviews. I seriously hope I haven't made a mistake!?

30-50 ping to JHB?

Seriously. If Octotel can't see anything is wrong here... I'm just going to stop before I throw something out my window.
 
Can you all please be more specific about your fibre provider and area when you post please. As this gives us a better indication. We have no network related issues at the moment.
 
Cape Town - deep south, Open Serve, 100/50

Struggling to even watch twitch at 160p.

International Latency is up by 30ms to 40ms
