cmon guys for that price it's not worth it lol...

stability? speed?

i think DC is going down.
NPI

Stability is good now a days (minus the 3 day speed horror & yesterday) even MWEB/Afrihost/IS are having problems with their network. DC still need to fix a lot things but lately it's been smooth.

Speeds are awesome I get full line speed on everythin except single threaded HTTP downloads. I'm quite happy with DC. Oh and Torrents have sped up dramaticaly e.g In 9 hours 52 minutes I downloaded exactly 1 gig, so not bad.

Prices NEED to come down but I am sure that DC will bring their prices down and make sure they bring something special to the table. I just hope it is soon or DC will go down. In a month I believe we'll see who is the best uncapped provider. Being a little patience will bare fruit :)

DC need to communicate more, and until they do i will never consider coming back.
 
The speeds increased slightly later, but still hover at 6-11KB.

I just downloaded at the same speed with 1 segment in Getright and then between 25-40KB with 4 segments.

Secondlife is running at 20-30KB, so gaming is fine.
 
faster line speed,
uncapped service,
adsl line rental included,
no restrictions,
no thresholds,
no limitations,
totally unshaped,
for a cheaper price,
would be great.

Yeah single thread not so hot, I get an average of 16kB/s but thanks to certain site (rapidleech) I can download files from rapidshare, megaupload, depositfiles etc on to their servers and use DAP to download them with resume support!

Torrents are amazing at the moment. In uTorrent it says the average download rate is 29.7kB/s but it's goign between 32kB/s and 44kB/s. I wonder if DC is up to something?
