Good morning

I have tested the news server and I am able t make use of it with no trouble.

@Mwebguy I had the same problem today and this is a dns issue. Reason it worked for you is cause you use the mweb dns servers. I had same problem tonight and was pinging news.mweb.co.za on 168.209.98.66 instead of 196.28.78.229 it should be

Just so anyone using google dns (8.8.8.8) or some other public dns may know if they experience the same issue in future - use the direct ip or change your dns.....

Hi

could you please send me your account info and I will follow up on this for you.
 
Hey is anyone else having issues with latency and throughput to youtube etc?
I started noticing it on my phone when I was watching something and it started buffering even at 240p.
I then logged on my computer to check latency and pinging local pages like mweb.co.za and google.co.za were 120ms+.
Also I seem to be getting some loss on the line so I have to assume something has gone belly up in DBN?
Pings as follows:
Tracing route to mweb.co.za [196.2.63.110]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

1 2 ms 2 ms 2 ms xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

Lotsa Int latency, Durban shyte again methinks .......

Hi Mephisto_Helix

Please provide me with tracert results.

I am aware of others also mentioning a Durban issue. We are in the process of trying to find out if it is form our Network or not.
 
Just my input. Im not on mweb but am having issues with both my other ISPs. My friend on Mweb has the same issues so i think it may just be a KZN telkom fault.

Hi Bar_Rat

Any input is appreciated.

It helps with understanding a bigger possible picture ;-)
 
Pings on int servers double what they are usually both MWeb and Telkom isp accounts.

Always Dirtbin it seems :sick:

Why are Steam downloads being throttled? If we're downloading from the MWeb server it should be local bandwidth.

Hi TheLaggingShaman

You are not currently being speed limited.

All download usage is calculated against the threshold regardless of the type of usage.

Evening Mephisto_Helix, the 2nd hop on the trace to ddo is quite high.

If you do a trace to bbc.co.uk is the result similar?
 
I have been experience sluggish internet last few days. Can you do a reset or something please.

(Sluggish as in websites not loading sometimes, or really slow. Disconnections from games)
