Thanks Mephisto. Can you check back with me on Monday and give me an indication of what sort of speeds you reached this evening and over the weekend - I'd like to see the full range.

384k shaped uncapped. Connect to news.mweb.co.za. Between midnight (I assume, haven't stayed up that late to confirm) and 7AM, downloads run at above 30kb/s, at exactly 7am it drops to between 3 and 4kb/s. Even torrents run faster than this.
Also, up until last Sunday (27 Mar 2011), the mweb news server gave decent speeds the whole day, which is the part that confuses me.

jip, something obviously changed because of the seacom outtage that happened at that time, on the bright side hopefully they will now manage to actually fix the ct server for once grrrrrr

Hi Redeemerr30

YOur speed test results are on par with a 384; you have stated that you have a 4meg line. Do you perhaps have a 384 account though?

Kind regards, MWEB Guy

Now I'm hearing from CT guys that they have full line speed again on the news server after it being busted for weeks. Meanwhile the KZN and JHB guys either can't connect or get 0-10 kbps. Way to go fixing something and breaking it for the rest in the process, my oath.

If it makes you feel any better, my news server is also still crawling at about 3kbps and I am in Cape Town.
