FYI - MWEB is absolutely flying for shaped protocols for this time of the day :) I dropped my 2TB external and at this rate I'll recover everything by 20 October. Personally, I'd recommend MWEB again...

kbye!

I agree my 2TB gave up on me as well .. sigh... But at this rate I'll have everything back in no time :)
 
It is a problem with the hard drives, i have a few machines backing each other up lol... so if a drive goes i have a back up....

Anybody else disconnecting every 5 - 10 mins on the Battlefield 3 servers?

Edit: This is getting ridiculous now, cannot even play 2 minutes without disconnecting.

Edit Edit: between 20 and 30% packet loss, already phoned telkom who said nothing is wrong with my line.

Somehow I don't think this is a news server issue per se, looks like shaping gone wild. Basically shaping all over has increased this week, some protocols are being shaped so badly that they time out. ftp/http for one is VERY unstable, it has taken me close to 2 hours to download 50MB at one point and I can only hope nothing got currupted with all the 0KBps periods.

I would think that shaping would increase this week, as all the american tv shows have started again and the demand for bandwidth would go up..
 
any one else have very slow browse / dload speeds - trying to get BF3 from ftp but my 1meg line struggles to get 20kbs stable dload speed...
