You guys having DNS issues? Browsing has been up and down all day - works one sec, then cannot resolve the next and can't connect, while nntp and torrents are working fine. Flushed DNS on my side, still no luck...

Another weekend with this crappy ISP....
Slow...slow...slow...slow as lard
 
I just signed up with Openweb the other day after moving house and my line isn't as good as it used to be,youtube keeps buffering and some international sites wont open. Im on the new titan 2mb uncapped and before i was on a afrihost 2mb uncapped. Considering going back,but want to atleast give openweb a try as i was a previous client back in the day with those 30gig local only accounts.

How do your line stats look?
 
I think it's OpenTime on my connection at the moment :D

EDIT: That moment when your download speed is the same speed as copying from a flash drive :D

Yep was running at full throttle (4.2MB/sec) for just over an hour, but I only have a 20Mbit account :whistle:

OpenTime is over now it seems :(

It seems that your maximum ping is also good. If there are any issues, they most probably lie with your ISP :-(

5 sessions active on my account over yesterday according to saix.net. 10 active sessions since 01/05/2014.

So who else is connecting to my account? It's the same IPs consistently...

Oh yes, I forgot, we can't use that site to track the usage on our accounts. Never told why, just been told it's inaccurate. Just because.

"No sir, you can't use a Croxley ruler to measure the distance between A-B, you can only use Our Ruler (TM) because the Croxley ruler is inaccurate. Can't say why. It just is."

4 more weeks and then I'm done with this tedious garbage. Cannot wait and could and would never recommend an uncapped account with Openweb.
