Anybody else's torrents crawling? I get that it's shaped, but on Gold Uncapped with 16k seeds I expect more than 8KB/s :(

"Glad" I'm not the only one then. A port reset didn't help. Left the line unplugged and router off for about 45min, got a new IP on reconnecting but still poor speeds ... tested the line with my backup ISP to their news server (not IS server) and that maxed the line so something strange going on. Hope it picks up soon !!

It's strange, maybe it has something to do with MrBeep unshaping all the accounts on weekends?
Somehow I think this happens more often on a monday?

Thanks.

I am busy wading through my mails now :)

I did earlier on and you corresponded with me, I've sent a few followup emails with more feedback on tests and other things I've done but haven't heard back as yet.

Hi Wasabee

Kindly email support@openweb.co.za so that we can investigate the issue for you.

I am currently connected to 3 x different service levels and its running pretty much full speed on all protocols.

I do know there are alot of SAIX / Telkom network notices today across the country. These could be affecting speeds as well

Healthy torrents are slow and many sites load slow as well. ;(
