I am currently on a Afrihost uncapped bundle, and I am situated in Cape Town.
I have for over 2 weeks now been struggling with day and/or night time download speeds of 4-7kbp/s while being told by support that my sync'd speed is great and line stats are exceptional. On top of this, I am unable to play World of Warcraft(EU) as I am getting latencies of 3-10k.
I have queried the Afrihost support staff 3 times in the past 3 weeks. One such query returned a 3 sentence email reply, that I must have "a game and/or download client running" in background. Now this is not exactly the response I was looking for since it had clearly worked fine 2 weeks ago and there is definetly no update out for WOW.
One other chap was very helpful and sounded promising, but I have not been able to get hold of him again.
Now that my /rant is overI would like to know. For general downloading about 50gb a month and playing World of Warcraft(EU) after hours on every other day, what uncapped provider would you guys suggest, as I am seriously considering the option of moving.
I would really appreciate help on this.

The more I think about it, the more fake that 160ms sounds. It's impossible considering the distance and switches and relays the signal needs to go through. Your program is lying to you.
Rather post the speedtest stats using London server.
