MWEB Gaming Feedback

mmm...Age of Conan seems to be working nicely...will see if it holds up in a raid later

Glad to hear that Snorkey. We'll take a proper look at the traffic for this in any event and see if anything can be adjusted.
 
Issues:

Had to switch over to webafrica to be able to do character creation in champions on line. mweb just doesn't want to log in to the client and actually get to the creation screen...

And still exact same problem. Can't get to character creation with mweb, but as soon as I switch to webafrica, I can log in and create.
 
Seem to be having problems with Trackmania:nations on 384 uncapped... unable to join servers, often during business hours... looks like the protocol or ports might be getting shaped as p2p... not sure
 
seems champions online is not playable on mweb, Can't create characters, Can't load map lists or anything except starting up the game. As soon as I switch over to webafrica there is no issues, it loads fast, create characters and loads the maps.

Not sure what to make of the following here but here is the results using their nettest

Ok mweb. I discover that you people are useless when it comes to black ops. Please man I have logged endless calls and nothing has been done. Still Black ops is not connecting. Can you please fix it now. I have been having issues for the last few weeks.

MWEB = useless service.
 
Seems I Must tunnel/proxy my traffic from and to champions online since mweb is shaping or routing wrongly to and from the servers.

MWEB = no champions online.
 
Everything is always fine for MWEB employees. Maybe they need to sit here at my place for a week and see what I'm talking about and they will crap there pants

Obviously IF testing is done directly from the offices that have direct access to the backbone. Still waiting for that magical tracert and speedtest (using http://testmy.net/) to arrive from will.
 
My WoW traffic to instance/bg servers is being throttled/limited again :(

Yip Endless Black Ops problems... about 90% of my clan can not connect, me included now...
 
dont use steam account for it, now that is f2p on steam?
i try that spiral knights did work

Not sure what you are trying to say here.

How is opening a web page that can't be loaded and gives a complete timeout related to my steam account ?

1) open browser
2) type in http://www.globalagendagame.com/account
3) press enter
4) page timeout

:e
Either get a timeout or it's slooooooooooooooow as hell.
 
you don't need access the webpage as you just use steam to log in the game.
i see its 10gig now o.0

That does not seem to be true, you saying that your steam account login is your master account ?

Mine works fine now with registered account via webafrica:
Master Account ID: *******
Account Status: Free Agent
Creation Date: 2011-06-16
In-Game Player Nickname: *******
In-Forum Name: *******

I'd be surprised if you don't have it that way when you check in account management/my account.

Maybe download the game and make sure before you comment...

yeah sorry thought all steam games just use your steam to log in to games , aka not having to make accounts on website, never made any account on any website for a steam game.


edit seems to magically work now lol

It's cool, just frustration.
 
I've been having some trouble with bfbc2 lately, i cant get a stable ping that's under 200 ms, it usually hangs around at 160-ish, then jumps around between 300-700. I haven no downloads or anything running so this confuses me :S. WoW is also getting iffy again, wen i log in my latency is like 5k+ then it slowly drops to about 300. I cant log in today because its constantly 1k+ for home and 2k+ for world.I'm on a 384k unshaped uncapped line and I live in Potchefstroom so ye, no idea if its mweb or the country side that's lagging me out.

The overall download speed has also been getting lower and lower, at best it can barely manage 30k/s its usually in the low 20's.
 
So Age of Conan is still not playable...after a semi decent night on Wednesday its all gone downhill...really crappy pings all the time(1-2k) and the game pretty much lags out if things get hairy.
 
WoW is doing that weird throttle thing again. FFS this it's so annoying >.<
