OpenWeb ADSL Feedback Thread (Pt2)

I think something is wrong with their prioritising on Gamer's King. GW2 is lag city (even though the latencies show up as "normal"). When switched over to my Afrihost free gig, it's back to snappy again.

True there, GW2 completely unplayable.
 
My connection is slower than edge at the moment. I know thus because I got here on edge and the laptop is still loading
 
Did anyone else lose connectivity on their account at about 11:30 / 11:35 ? I couldn't reconnect for about 20 minutes, but it managed to regain connectivity about 2 minutes ago. Was really strange :wtf:

That speed looks very slow for a weekend.

The network is completely unshaped currently.

That's what I thought!

It burst up to full speed for about 5 minutes earlier... then back down. Turned off all other devices just to check, still slow.
 
Are they claiming its an "unshaped weekend" again?

For the record, I downloaded two versions of commercial software today, no warez, proper updates I am licensed for.
Let's just say the download experience reminded me of the bad old days when I had iBurst.

Local sites are fine.. anything outside the borders of the RSA, is a problem! Now pray tell, how is THAT MY ADSL LINE BEING FAULTY!

You mean, IS's network. Well there's no such thing with Internet Solutions.. they don't give a flying turd about anybody. We pay them R40k/month for internet at work, they don't care about us either.
 
The internet is completely stuffed. Tracerts are pointless to post as they simply time out. In fact I couldn't post a tracert if I tried considering the state of the internet. It's been like this since before 1am. tracerts to local are okayish, but still quite a few timeouts. tracerts to international is pointless. From the 6th hop on they just timeout jump to over 1000ms.

This is on capped...

Hi DJ

Kindly PM me so that I can take a look.

There are no general issues currently, just a vast and wide variety of Telkom issues across the country.

Yes, the network IS unshaped. It has been since Friday.

I am looking at the graphs as we speak. WELL under utilized.

Seems to have resolved itself today. Running smoothly again. I assumed it was an ISP issue as the first few hops were fine, and the rest timed out or had issues. Minor problem though as all appears okay now...
 
Anyone else experiencing connectivity issues in Durban, connection was fine until about 10ish then it went dead, still not able to connect to the internet through Openweb. Mr. Beep I have Pm'd you :)
