Official Crystal Web ADSL performance feedback thread Part 2...

Seriously frustrating not being able to pull more than 100K/sec on a well-seeded torrent on a 20mbps capped account at 18h40 on a Sunday evening. IPC issues or not, SURELY there's more bandwidth available than that?

What package are you on? Remember most people are home right now.

 

[CataclysmZA]

Same for me in Durban.

Same in PE, accept it's more like 1/10th.

The family was also watching House of Cards last night on Netflix. Saw some really blocky video for about 5 minutes while the available bandwidth went up and down. Most of the time the quality was sub-480p as well.

Think he was just pointing out that the IPC might be hammered. Certaintly felt it as well.

Thankfully this week the IPC will be in *fingers crossed*

I hope so - premium account was brilliant last month, but now everything has gone downhill.

Don't want this turning into another Afrihost where they are always "waiting for more capacity".

Was thinking the same thing. That's why I left AH, hoping CW would plan better for these types of things. Not very impressed at the moment.

What device? Just finished watching an episode on my Roku and was HD all the way through.

 

[Looney]

Apple TV.

 

[DrJohnZoidberg]

Apple TV.

ATV is usually pretty good with Netflix, probably the connection then.

 

[Looney]

Yup. CW is letting me down...

Tomorrow is WWDC so plenty of streaming to start at 7pm tomorrow night.
And the week after is E3.

ISPs are going to get tested

Is there a program available for the E3 broadcasts and where will it be shown/streamed?

Yep and I'm getting fscking peeved off now with CW. My account is running like *****. Everything just sucks. Streaming is crap, browsing is crap, torrents are crap, everything is just crap. And tomorrow I planned on watching the WWDC. This account better start performing properly tomorrow or else...

Yup I'm aware of the IPC issues in the south. Just the comment made it sound like the norm.

Well people are home so you can expect ****ty Internet performance...

 

[Paparazzi]

Damn this IPC fix can't come sooner... couldn't even stream twitch on medium on 10MB line, had to resort to low!
