Hi.
I just upgraded to 1MB uncapped (yesterday afternoon) with mweb and now my steam cannot connect.
Is there anything i can do to get this working?
Can anyone at mweb confirm a problem connecting to the steam servers?
Is anyone else having a problem with this?
Please help.....
 
I had a few minutes of trying to connect, but it is fine now. Overall I have no problems connecting to Steam. I'm on Mweb uncapped 1MB.
 
Working fine here, actualy quicker than normal, 1Mbit uncapped.
 
Just got it working, I removed the dsl from @dslmweb to just @mweb.co.za in my username. It uses a different network afaik. Works fine now
 
Ok I'v soloved my problem, I did a combination of closing P2P programs, disabling anti-virus, and removing ..'dsl'.. from my username. It then worked fine, so I returned everything back to the way it was and now it works fine. I would suggest putting the 'dsl' back into the username as after some speed test it showed the line was quicker with it in. If anyone else has connected using other ISP's and couldn't connect when you went back to your mweb account please let us know.

I do have some issues with steam on mweb, which is better the mweb server in CPT or the JHB server?
 
I'd just like to throw it out there that I couldn't connect to Steam for about a week or more, no matter which server I chose (local, mweb, non-mweb, international, whatever). When I _do_ manage to connect, my downloads are dog slow. They peak at around 250KB/s and then drop to a steady 15KB/s.

I'm on mweb 4mb uncapped. So if anyone else is having issues you are not alone.

I'm busy trialing a MWeb 4mbit uncapped account and my Steam insists that I do not have an internet connection. Using one of my other accounts, it works fine, however. This does not fill me with confidence in their product.
 
Can't connect with mweb last 3 days at certain times. Is really pissing me off.
