MWEB Gaming Feedback

[smokemaryjane]

Constant DC's today. Can't stay connected for longer than 2 or 3 minutes.

At which times Vaughan? What I'm seeing now indicates that we're getting a better experience from 18h00 onwards and that it start to deteriorate towards midnight.

Hmm, Did seacom just hit the fan again?

I'm also wondering about this as things just went all pear-shaped.

Don't know, but I just got hit with some 5000+ms ping.

 

[bradrap]

Seems so >.<

This is really getting old. Once every 2-3months, hell even once a month is tolerable but this is like 2-3 times a week.

 

[knobshine]

oops, spoke to soon.

 

[bradrap]

Nope it's not. Constant through the roof ms.

 

[Tom242]

same here...for the past hour 5k.

Have not had any issues for a long time though. Luckily I have backup WA prepaid

Getting constant timeouts on Minecraft. This isn't looking very pretty.

 

[Will@MWEB]

Hi Gents We've had a dip in International capacity, Techs are looking into this urgently.

 

[Abn0rm4l]

That is starting to become MWEB's new slogan.

'MWEB - We've had a dip in International capacity'

It was fixed quite fast, so stop complaining. It doesn't even happen that much either.

13k ms and constant DC's
and as usual, nothing wrong with my free 1GB account from Afrihost.

 

[Mike43110]

Seriously, why is the connection so dodgy?

Where is the issue, I mean once a week there is some sort of issue!

 

[Vaughan42]

Same thing today will. Almost decent up to around 10:30, now its 11 and its totally screwed again.

 

[Sillicur]

yup timeouts again now, honestly why cant mweb have a few good weeks? Should their paying customers always suffer?

 

[randomgamer]

getting insane lag

 

[Basjohn]

Indeed. Started working alright after it messed up earlier and then not long ago began lagging to hell and back again.

Strange this inconsistency is, and while I'm completely willing to lay blame on Seacom.............I thought Mweb had some redundancy for occasions (although with seacom "occasion" probably isn't the apt word) like this?
