Hey,
Having ping issues in Cape Town again. Or at least I am. I'm currently on my other ISP as the pings were screwed, but will post up my mweb latencies ASAP.
Provide me with a trace route to a local and international site.

MWEB Guy can you please log a line fault for me. My line is only syncing at 3.1mbps down from 8mbps a few days ago. Checked everything with the router to no avail. My guess is something has gone wrong at the exchange. I'm on the 4mb/s package with a 10mb/s line.
Speeds are down. pings are up

Your line readings are all in order.
I have reauthed your account. Allow 30 minutes for this to be completed then restart your router and test.
Is NNTP being shaped? On my 2mb line, I have always managed 220kbps. But since the weekend, that has gradually been reduced to an average of 80kbps. At first I thought it was Astraweb... until I tested my connection on my Telkom backup account and downloads are going steady @ 220kbps. Definitely not my line or Astraweb. When I first connect, transfer speeds start out at 220, but within a few seconds are down to 80. Everything else runs fine. Just NNTP. Have not tested torrents as that has always been bad since signing up - and don't really need it anyway.
Hi subxero
Yes NNtp does get shaped on our network.
MWEB Guy. I have an uncapped 2mbps account. Download sppeds are good but video streaming eg youtube is very intermittent and unsatisfactory. Please help.

I know what you mean... lets hope the testing phase is not to long....
