Hi. I am considering signing up for afrihost's 1MB uncapped+line bundle for R297pm. can someone please tell me how is their 1MB connection? I am going to be using it for browsing and torrents. not very much though. maybe like 50gigs at most a month which is a worst case scenario. what download speeds can i expect to get on a torrent? and lastly, are there any connections that are better but not more expensive than this one?

all help is appreciated.. thanks in advance

Best way to is to give it a try. Send me a PM and I'll send you a link to discount your first month's prorata and next month's full invoice. Give it a try. If it's not for you, you won't have spent much - promise :)
 
PM sent. but are there any Afrihost customers that can give me feedback as to how the connection is and what speeds i can expect?
 
Ive just got upgraded from the 384 to the 1meg bundle, using since tuesday. Its a good bundle at a great price. I get around 80 - 100kb/s speed most of the time, it sometimes does drop during peak hours- but nothing that's unbearable. I download bout a gig a day, and no problems with the bundle as yet.

Yip. Using a 1 Meg uncapped account. Works for me. I get the 80 - 100 kb/s as well. Not so much on the 100 kb/s side. But, the 1 Meg line stays at one meg. I have never dropped below 75 kb/s on torrents. So I believe the 1 meg option is "what you pay for, you get. No throttling!
 
After how many gigs does your speed drop on torrents? I will be downloading around abt 100gigs a month.
