MWEB Uncapped ADSL Feedback - Part 3

l_abc_l said:
Can't believe I'm considering coming back here but here goes... MWeb guy can you please confirm the following for a 4 MB premium uncapped:
1- is streaming service like hulu and Netflix via unotelly shaped?
2 - is gaming unshaped 24/7?
3 - approx 400 gb in a rolling period before throttling
4 - do you do test accounts?
5 - are there specific shaped and unshaped times?

For gaming I have a small capped account, steam and mweb uncapped doesn't work well together with my 4 meg standard account
 
Him are there any known problems with the MWEB News Server? It has been standing still since some time yesterday on my side, everything else seems to be working fine.
 
I just switched over to MWEB from OW and everything is great, but.... I can not sent mail I can only received mail when I am on mweb, anyone got so advice?

I work from home and need to switch to my backup account to mail out :(

Is that just the way uncapped accounts are these days? Thinking of going back to capped. Paying way to much to be running at 56k modem speeds.
 
Since yesterday afternoon. Starts off normal for a few secs then just dies and crawls. Can you look into this please MWEB Guy?

EDIT: 4mbs Premium Uncapped
 
I also have the problem where my line is fine for a minute or so after restarting my router, and then the line just comes to a crawl.
3000ms+ response on a tracert saix.net. I dont know if this is a congested exchange or an MWEB issue anymore.

I saw Telkom doing work at the main exchange in Brackenfell yesterday.
 
An update from me. MWEB techie called, says speedtest.net isn't giving accurate results in SA. So tested on saix.net & speedtest.neotel.co.za with the following results:
