MWEB Uncapped ADSL Feedback - Part 2

Status
Not open for further replies.
Kind of an issue, but I cannot play dota on EU servers. Never before have I had such horrible dc's and lag. Game says 200ping. But I literally freeze ingame for 20 - 30 seconds and get communication errors.
 
Line is pretty much completely dead. It has been like this in the evening for 3 days straight. It has been pretty much perfect the last couple of months. Can you check my account for any irregularities please MWEB Guy?

Also - can you guys check out your news server? Missing articles are the catch of the day on MWEB - I thought running NNTP would be cheaper than having to serve all that content fresh from overseas :)
 
No offence MwebGuy but everytime I come here with a problem you tell me its an exchange issue :/

I don't think my ping has dropped from 120 since last thursday when this started.
I'll phone telkom tomorrow to ask if they can do all the regular checks.

Evening StevenC

The results show that the exchange could be congested. The 2nd hop is very high. Does this normally happening in the evening more than during the day?

What is happening with the news server?

Same issues for me I have even bypassed my wireless and am directly connected to the router.

My line is perfect. Not dropped a session in ages.

It must be from Mweb's side.

However I have also reported my line to Telkom to check.
 
My issues start at around 8pm, same as last night...

So if it is congestion, then what? I just have to put up with it?
 
Not at home during the day to test right now, but I was off sick last week since Thursday and it was mainly fine but generally from about 8 onwards the line just slows down to a trickle. Pages take ages to load, NNTP / P2P traffic is dead and I can barely do anything in GW2 (the only thing running).

News server wise - articles missing, lots of them! On fresh stuff as well. People on other ISPs are able to 100% it.

Trying to get a trial account for another ISP, my Afrihost one is being very shy with giving me my ADSL login password (that is active according to their client zone). Remember those free 1GB accounts? I cannot find the password anywhere for it!

Good MOrning Handz, if it is congestion we have to log a fault with Telkom. It will be up to them

I therefore require trace routes to mweb.co.za and bbc.co.uk when the problem occurs. Speed tests with your MWEB account and the Telkom guest account will also be appreciated.
 
Ok, I am very fast losing patience here. After the other day, I now have this, which happened out of nowhere about 10 minutes ago.

Afrihost - fine and dandy

Wth is going on. I can't even browse with Mweb. Please notice that 2nd hop with Afrihost there is nothing at all wrong.
 
My MWEB in DBN also just took a dive... 2nd hop at exchange is 20 ms.. then afterwards anywhere between 300ms and 600ms locally. Any other Durbanites with an issue?
 
Okay glad I'm not the only one having problems. Tried rebooting router to no avail.
 
Yeah Mal1ce, Mweb is Deadweb for me in Durbs North Coast- currently on my Afrihost account! Any idea whats up Mweb?
