Hi all,
Looked but for some reason could not find thread.

Looking for comments around Metrofiber as ISP on their own Infrastructure.

Very good friend of mine had Metrofibre on Metrofibre and she had a horrible experience, in the evenings her local ping would go from 5ms to JHB from Pretoria to 50-60ms and this would affect both international and local latency.

I helped her make tickets explaining everything and they were useless and did nothing. I suggested she switched to Cool Ideas and she did and since then never had one issue like she had with Metro as her ISP - the Metro issues went on for multiple months as well

This was in Centurion.

also noticed damm you'd think they offer the best package as a ISP on their own network, but damm they expensive.
