@mweb guy Please help I have a 1MB line and I can barely do anything online

Downstream Upstream

SNR Margin : 35.5 13.0 db

Line Attenuation : 61.0 31.5 db

Data Rate : 1024 512 kbps

Max Rate: 7488 784 kbps

CRC : 59 87

I can barely download anything best i get is 15 kb/s
 
I'm almost getting 20% of what I pay for, in the dead of night. I suppose I should be happy. :D
My bandwidth monitor says way less, but I am trying to take a positive outlook here.

Sneeky, I moved to Axxess after 2 years with Mweb. 10mb uncapped account for R150 more than your 4mb Uncapped account with Mweb. Do yourself a favor and move, obviously after they released their new packages they decided to hard throttle you to 4mb even if your line speed was faster. However it seems they completely annihilated hundreds of people's accounts and now want to blame you or Telkom for it. Do the right thing, move.
 
Good news: (well tongue in cheek) If I am 'lucky' I may just be able to play this sim after the update is finished in 2 days, excluding the 6 and a bit hours I have already been trying to download this today.

Its a horrific 1.5-2Gb download, heaven forbid.

Same here!

Had to change to my MWEB account last night at 12 to do some downloads cause Webafrica was limited.. Was crawling at 10-20 kb/s :( This morning I had to change back to Webafrica to download another update on League of Legends and to watch a Youtube video! Mweb was so slow, couldn't watch in 240p :(

What is going on? It isn't just me? Really, this is unacceptable!

Good Morning oliverwww, please note that your line is currently syncing at 3072 kbps and you attenuation is at 61dB. This will have a direct impact on your experience.

Please provide me speed test results with your MWEB and with the telkom guest account details.

Please also provide me trace route results to mweb.co.za and bbc.co.uk and I will log another line fault.

Good Morning

We have no reported outages on our network at the moment.

Please change your username realm to @mweb.co.za and let me know if that makes a difference. I would like to see if connecting with a new IP helps...

Thanks for the heads up and the reponse, but the err was on my side... I feel like such a n00b at the moment. Next time I'll double check the situation after I've made sure it wasn't my SO uploading her work.

Weird.... its gone now.


:edit
My apologies. I found the cause it was my SO uploading her work... lol.

But I've had this for the past 2 years (with no fix) yet this problem has never popped up? This Webafrica account is doing great? It has to be you guys, its been a week since this has started.. Really tired of this!
And I mean you guys are a really great ISP, but this last week it has actually been embarrassing for you (MWEB) as It isn't just me experiencing this issue? I will log into my MWEB account later and provide you some traceroutes etc.. But when you know that you can't watch a 240p video on a 3mbps line, then it's just plain sad! I've had a really bad week so far and this is just making it worse!

Is there anything you can do? Reset the port/profile? Anything?! Please :(

Oliver

oliverwww are you testing with a Webafrica capped account?

This line is definitely problematic oliverwww, remember the conditions at your exchange may not be the same as it was initially.
 
Just got a New Telkom - MWEB 1 Mbps Uncapped Account @ my SO's place, look's bad...
