Hi rsd - if you can provide some links I'll get this tested for you. Have you checked other streaming to see if it's your connection, or a problem with the source?

It basically buffers a hell of a lot, which I would assume means the issue is with my connection, rather than the stream. When the stream has had issues in the past it lags and stutters, but with no indication of buffering within VLC. Link in the post is all I can really give you (there's no web-based stream). Link changes daily so I'll have to give you another one whenever you're likely to test it. Only active from 11am every day til about 1pm.

Other streaming is usually ok for me, but I don't do much other streaming during office hours. Just strange that this has been fine for quite a while, but is suddenly dodgy.

I sent MWEB Operations my Account number and Username, I unfortunately don't have time during the day to log complaints with your department so I lack any kind of reference number, please do see if you can sort anything out for me as I am quite annoyed by the problem.

Hi Jaco

The details you have provided is sufficient. I will be investigation from our end and will provide you with information shortly.

Regards,
MWEB Ops

See there is a perfect example of how the line should be performing, and is most of the time, but there are random and constant dips and I can't understand why

They don't easily roll off the tongue.

(Is Mweb set as your home page on your browser? You seem to have all things Mweb at your fingertips ;))

Or the details could have come from an email sent to MWEB subscribers. ;)

Ok lets test on Monday morning then - PM me the active link and I'll get VLC up on our test bench and see what the experience is like from here.

Is anyone else having trouble accessing various https sites? There is a couple that I access regularly that are not available when I try to connect via Mweb uncapped, yet they work just fine via Cell C.

Hi Zord,

Are you still experiencing packet loss when doing the trace route.
Please test it again and drop me a PM if anything has changed.

Is mweb experiencing network issues as I'm losing data transfer capabilities every 2 mins or so.
