Very strange, I can stream without issues on Kodi but let me just try to browse the web.

So when is this going to be fixed? I can't just drink and get drunk every night. Sometimes I need the interwebz.

current special?

Standard pricing & terms on their 10GB package

http://www.afrihost.com/site/product/adsl_capped


** After-Hours Data
- 1GB Package After-Hours Data is available until 30 June 2016.
- FREE and UNLIMITED internet usage After‑Hours, between 23:30 and 07:30 Every Day.
- After Hours Data will only be available to active Capped DSL clients who have a positive data balance. For example, if you have no available data (monthly allocation or top-up data) or your account has been Suspended or Paused, you will NOT receive free After-Hours data.

Axxess is the same price for 10GB, but they do offer a 6GB one, and their hours are from midnight to 6am (I think).

Thing I don't like about Afrihost is you have to register a credit card with them - no internet transfers allowed :(

They do debit card if you not on credit card. I had no idea they've extended uncapped night data to 7:30am.

Apparently not all debit cards accepted. Received this as part of a PM answer from AfriMan on 12-04-2016 12:18 PM :

Hi there

....... We can accept some debit card (like cheque cards that are OK for online transactions but most won't work and only credit cards are accepted).

.....

Their extended hours for data are a compelling reason to sign up with them for even the 10GB :)

This Vox thread is quickly turning into an Afrihost one :p
