Looking at inbox. I suddenly don't like you also. :P

If you've also not yet received your news server details then please let me know via our support email or the support portal...
 
Netflix was on and off tonight. No buffering but every time the scene moved quickly the quality would drop and every t I merge scene slowed down it would get crystal clear. Better than last night though :).

I just love these crystal words in some replies lol. That ISP name was a goood choice, wonder if they thought about wordplay when they got this name.

Certainly did. It was a considered choice...
 
18-20% line speed on NNTP tonight... tweaknews.eu
 
10%-14% line speed on NNTP from my side.

Crystal Web, I've commented on the support ticket requesting for the news servers access just now.
Should I still email support?

(DJ... hope you didn't miss my PM from Monday)

Any chance of an account to test my Roku UK account. I watch BBC, Netflix, Demand5, 4oD, NowTV, Sky News, Crackle and use Rdio. I have struggled with Mweb, AH, WA on some channels with buffering, especially on NowTV which is pretty much 30 seconds of watching and 10 seconds of buffering. So if I can watch without buffering, I will be signing up. I have a 6 meg line.

@Crystal Web
Any feedback on my request? I would love to give you guys a go over a weekend to test streaming on UK services. Thanks
 
International definitely seems to have degraded (even more) this morning. Experiencing high packet loss to all sites. Games are unplayable. Browsing and downloading still sort of work. Switched to free WA 1GB account and everything is normal.

I am home sick today so can test CW. The video streaming is on par with Afrihost. Where it will stream 300kbps on Vidstation on Afrihost for instance it will stream 300kbps on CW. Other services that works fast on AH works fast (3.5mbps) on CW. CW average stream on Netflix is about 700kbps max with bursts here and there with 1.4mbps for 2 seconds. On AH I get a average stream of 1.2mbps with bursts to 2.1mbps. Getting there, MUCH better.

Woke up this morning to the beautiful site of many of my NZB downloads in the queue completed, as well as a few torrents done, and speeds in the 200 kilobyte per second region. Think I need to start doing some online gaming to see how it holds up.

Logging in my side. Guess the news server is heavily shaped now? 0kb throughput

Edit: NVM, got password wrong it seems, SABNZbd tested fine, but got error in log

Running now, 30k/s but that could be current ISP (OW but not for long) as well
