My Speed test not a min ago. I'm on a 3mbps line half the speed. How do you want me to play online.
International speed test. Due to the distance to exchange. I'm on a capped account.
Last Result:
Download Speed: 1189 kbps (148.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 404 kbps (50.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency: 210 ms

This is terrible now - what is the problem at the moment? Been dismal all day today.
Getting max 30kb on a PDF download, nothing else running. Browsing is awful and mail takes an age.
For a business account this is not at all what I signed up for - will give it until month end and will make a call...

Yeah, sub 200ms ping are a distant memory. Browsing crawls, gaming is impossible, I for one can't test my internet each and every night with multiple accounts. I want it to work like it's supposed to.
I was feeling exactly the same, so I bit the bullet and went to WebAfrica. I haven't regretted it a single day! I even upgraded my package for December!

@Aquiva on which package were you with CW and to which did you go on WA and what are you upgrading to? Holidays approaching and will probably have to get backup interwebs to keep kids happy.

Sorry I should mention my bad experience was with Afrihost, after being with them for years!! I got the normal Home Capped 90GB + 180GB with WA and it is great!

Its not just CW that is having issues, VOX is in the same boat

This sorted me out temporally by using Google DNS. Support put me up to this.
I noticed while playing online D3 I get these massive lags from the network.(2100ms)
Since last night using Google DNS I get swings up to 350ms. This is a big improvement. Yet not correct.
I was promised by the end of the week it will be solved. Lets see. I have been waiting now for 3 weeks. Another bit of the week left.
