What's up with the download speed?

Got 400kbps+ on a 4Mbps premium account earlier this morning and after 09:00 speeds just dropped to around 100kbps?
 
Tried a reboot as well as doing a second PPPOE connection. Just get the 'Connecting' and then 'Unable to connect retry in ....". Guess I'l try later

Unable to connect to the news servers here as well, since +- 2 hours ago.

I tested the news server on our news server and I was able to connect and download content.
 
Hey I can finally connect. Getting 0 Kb/s but atleast I can connect :P

Edit: connections died. Picture says it all

Aye, it's dead in the water Cap'n, it stays connecting for ages and then manages to make a connection with like 1 thread but nothing downloads
 
I have restarted the router, switched it off for a while then on, alternated between @mweb.co.za and @dslmweb.co.za, cannot connect.
 
Seeing on other forums lots of others having no luck with the news servers today (3 forums, about 20 odd peeps). It's getting tiresome having a different issue each week :/
 
Best solution, cancel and try a different ISP. I log onto my test accounts and everything works 100%

Seems like Afrihost News Server also down/not giving people what they want. So the best solution is maybe to just spend R100 on a seedbox, torrent the stuff and HTTP it over? That way it's like a news server, except less gay and dedicated to just you

Afternoon Mephisto_Helix, we cannot replicate the problem with the news server and we are testing from Cape Town.

Please change your username realm to @dslmweb.co.za and let me know if it makes any difference. (I put protected access back on as well).


Are you testing the MWEB news servers?

Afternoon HelterSkelter, please send me your MWEB account details via private message.
