I hope everything falls into place by Friday 5 December 2014. If not, then I am forced to move away from CW due to zero performance of services paid for. I was shouted to for 10 straight minutes because the net is not even close to 1Mbps.

Not using the net much recently, but just tried a 720p Youtube vid:

4 meg line...
 
Much better for me today. We will see how soccer streaming goes later tonight.
 
Account was amazing yesterday and day before really put a dent in it. Today it's slowed down again radically.
 
These changes in speeds are all part of the planned upgrade, but rest assured that any notification of further delays will result in some drastic changes to get things working the way they should. We won't tolerate endless delays outside of our control either. :)
 
Yesterday my Xbox one downloads were downloading at full line speed. Today it's all over the place. Jumping from 25kb/s to 250kb/s then to 400kbs/s. Very erratic today.
 
So there appears to be something amiss with international packets, what with 20% packetloss and all....

YouTube streaming has completely gone to *****. The largest reason why I moved away from Afrihost, which performed even better than this...
 
@CW

my 2Cents
First time in a while that I used CW account to play online.
There were latency spikes need to get the rest sorted.
On P2P front slow start but picked up.
Don't know how many were online with there CW accounts last night. I will monitor.
 
I am now using Vox capped account.
FYI, Hulu HD, no buffer.
Everything else, working better than CW.

Sorry to say, you guys have lots of work to do to resolve this situation.
 
I didnt see any improvement in HTTP last night or this morning before I left for work.
Torrents were hitting 300-400kB/s. If my ROMs were available via torrent I would be happy but their not :(
 
@agentrfr I noticed the exact same thing. My packetloss also started at the same spot.

Playing on an international server is NOT recommended, until its sorted out.

This problem started about 2 nights ago for me. Was right in the middle of a dota game.
