DigiChilli January Status and feedback

[Lightscribe]

For the last hour, telkom was broken. Would not authenticate. Just came right now. But DC is still dead. Maybe the tekom issue is affecting DC.

DC authenticates, but is dead.

[Lightscribe]

telkom is broken. I can browse MyBB but the music streaming from 5fm, just kept trying to connect for 5 minutes before it worked.

DC is still dead, although it authenticates. Just dead.

Digichilli runs seacom so neotel most certanly broke it

Things were looking so bright...

The whole day everything was perfect.

And then from 15 minutes ago I'm lucky if I can pull more than 6KB/s...

telkom just died for a few minutes again.

DC is now almost dead. Pages don't load.

Can log into secondlife, but it crashes every few minutes. Feels like the old days with telkom and other ISP accounts...constant crashing.

For the last half hour I cannot even log into Secondlife anymore. The speedguide speedtest gets to the end and then displays an error page.

Speakeasy just displays the error page. basically it's dead.

MyBB works with DC...so local works...international is dead.

 

[skoenman]

guys is anybody else also having the same problem???? 190kbps download max then during the night i had a section were it looks like there was no connection.... Further everthing is cool.

 

[Speedyza]

speed still sucks, its been like this for yesterday and today, they better fix it befor the end of the month or i will not be paying for another slow month....getting max 70-90kb/s was getting 450-500kb/s on the weekend....

 

[Grim3vil]

I am so tried of coming here to moan about things not working DC fix it and keep it fixed almost 2 months and nothing solid yet

 

[BlooDBatH]

The lack of updates from Dave or even ANY Digichillie is worrisome... I can understand "if" Dave is busy with meetings and all, but come on surely there is another person at Digichillie that can give us an update?

 

[kimbo]

HTTP international is slow .. i presume telkom
everything else running good

 

[XineoX]

HTTP international is slow .. i presume telkom
everything else running good

Yip I bet it's Telkom. DC get Bandwidth from neotel but everything else from Telkom if I'm not mistaken?

Getting max 27kB/s on everything here

I have a question.............. some1 please ANSWER me!

What the hell is the point of DC now, did you guys not just read the news about 8mbit/12mbit and the 384 users being bumped up to 1meg??? What is the point of DC with their pathetic 256kbs uncapped account, when in a very few months we'll all be seeing a bump in speed???

All the 384 users will probably be bumped up to 1meg, now 1 meg with a DC account at 256kbs????

this option is just not viable anymore considering the news. Not for the 4meg users and not even for the 388 users
