MWEB Uncapped ADSL Feedback

[Off-The-Chart]

biggest problem I have been experiencing last week or so, has been extremely fluctuating download speeds.

I use file hosts as my main downloading together with a download manager.

unfortunately with browser downloader, it is difficult to tell if it fluctuates, seeing as the browser downloader doesn't 'update' the status like that of a manager and thus by the time the fluctuation is finished, you still only see the speed it was "stabilized" at.
(if that makes sense)

Im very disappointed in mweb atm

I know torrents get lowest priority but I never had slow speeds like this. 10kbs on a 1mbs line. are you kidding me!?

Same for me, torrents averaging 5-20kbs last three days. Browsing and downloading Chrome extensions on two laptops simultaneously now and it is a nightmare. Don't know if it is fair to expect more from shaped uncapped?

From last week Thursday to Sunday torrents downloads were pretty quick and consistent.

I'm starting to wonder if its an issue in Pretoria.

EDIT: Browsing is also slowing down now. Not just torrents anymore and its happening on multiple sites. Tried turning of modem for 30min, which didn't help at all.

Then I have no idea what is causing this.

Same here getting nothing over 30kb/s. average range from 5kb/s to 15kb/s if im lucky.

Torrent speeds have been bad for a while(150-200kb/s) but today they just terrible.

In Centurion and everything is also slow (especially in the afternoon and a night) with 800+ ms latency (since last week).
I am following this up with both Telkom and MWEB.

15-17kbs atm

 

[Madaboutbullterriers]

I live in Cape Town & the speed is horrific @ 1.5 to 2.5 KB's - glad I'm not the only one!!
