When last was that updated?

Says it right there in the Whois record. 4th of October 2017. What I find interesting is that Shaun's last name appears to have changed? In the CW Whois records, it lists a Shaun Gunning. For Evonet, it's Shaun Kaplan. What's with the discrepency?

Edit: Looking up the registrant's email, I also found these associated domains. Pretty interesting!

Very odd how he would be in the domain WHOIS but not the ASN registration... seperation of management?

It's funny how my internet service - and that includes support - from CW has always been exemplary, and besides a few streaming issues a few months back, I seem to have zero issues, whilst others have **** every day.

I guess it must be isolated to fibre on certain providers.

I'm in the same boat, zero issues, fibre. Had octotel knocking at my door yesterday and although they are cheaper, what I currently have works so why change. Try and contact any other isp support and see how long it takes compared to live chat. Axxess - 6 minutes, webafrica, put down phone after 10 minutes, afrihost support wasn't available at all. Crystal, within a minute. That's why I don't mind paying extra.

Well since you're incorrect and Shaun is still very much part of CW, as stated in the posts above, and otherwise, I will remain with my statement that your assumption is weird.

My assumption that Evonet and Crystal Web are under different management is incorrect?

Also, why is Evonet of any relevance? Shaun is still CEO of CW, which is the only thing of importance here.

It started with Crystal Web getting their own ASN, which has a man by the name of Brian Seligmann as a contact person, registered at the address Shaun used to live at (https://www.tcpiputils.com/browse/as/328239) yet Shaun, the CEO, is not.

Anyway, this conversation has derailed. I hope we hear something from them soon, I'm keen for some disruption in the industry.

Yep - looks like my post where I mentioned I re-signed for a capped account to use their open-time was deleted, I'm sure you, as a mod can check deleted posts?

I think it will be quicker to have your IP addresses checked. That should confirm.
