@lantic R59 uncapped 'bolt-on' feedback

I am unable to find any fair use policy on this bolt on, the other networks all seem to have threshold or star rating but nothing here. Whats the deal ?

True, but I guess the only negative about adopting this strategy is that sometimes contention gets introduced when IPC reaches saturation, like what's happening in the cape.

yup, sucks to be a Vox customer in the cape...

No issues on my side. Played dota 2 and path of exile. Also stream Netflix without buffering. 4mb line in cape town.

What was your latency like?

I'm having a terrible time. 300+ ping to LoL, packet loss and feels like I'm watching a powerpoint presentation.
Dota ping is 150+ if I do a speedtest to the CT server I get 200ms. Lets not even talk about the speed.

Things are really crap here. (Somerset West)

Then again, at around 00:00 - 01:00 everything is perfect again until about 8-9pm the following day.

Sad for days

I did a speed test at one point and had local latency of 100. So not very good. But had no lag in games.

Sorry to hear. Maybe I was just lucky this weekend.

I had assumed that because of the high latency that gaming wouldn't have worrked. I've noticed that even fatpipe CPT users are experiencing 100ms+ latency.
 
This being soft capped early, while still having roll over that you paid for, is the most frustrating thing with @lantic

Are you talking about fat-pipe?

Mine seems to be fixed (touch wood), I've done 83GB's out of 166GB so far on my 50GB fat-pipe + bolt-on, and hasn't "capped" yet.

It would seem it did it after 50GB, like it didn't "roll-over" into the next batch of data, well that's the theory I settled on :p

But yes, it's very frustrating and is the primary reason I have another ISP account which I use as my primary, also the mybb timeouts is another reason but that seems to be over.
 
The Uncapped bolt-on has been working very well for me since yesterday... And it turns out my line is perfect, it's CW's network that isn't so hot at the moment.
 
Been waiting 2 days for feedback on my bolt on account ;-;
 
Hi I have also applied for the bolt on and been waiting 2 days. Really pathetic you have to wait so long, I really can't understand why it has to be done manually. Makes no sense.
