Hi guys

I have been using a VPN, to access my ondemand services, as I've been out of SA for years, for as long as I can remember, I have used the same VPN account, and the same credentials, and it's worked fine. Speedwise I was hitting 300-400kbps on a good day to download files.

Suddenly, with the rollout of the new platform, my 350-400kbps speed has drooped down at less then 100kbps, sometimes it hits 120kbps, but it just sticks at 56kbps, and it literally takes me a whole day to download a 1gb Idols episode.

Anyone else within SA experience this issue?
 
DSTV will blame your isp.
The problem however lies entirely with DSTV.

It's been highlighted many times.
Their sport streaming used to be atrocious.
