Nothing really, shouldn't be concerned, maybe a firewall or something, point is it gets there in the end.

You should be more worried with hop 7.

Hey Friends,

We will be unshaping the network tonight for a weekend of download fun.

Accounts will be unshaped as follows:

Gold: 18:00
Silver and Gamers: 19:30
Everyday: 20:45
Titan: 22:00

Shaping will only be applied again on Monday at 7am.

Happy downloading!

My Internet connection is okay now but only video streaming sites are impossible to watch

Youtube's dead.

Try using a different router if you haven't already.

If you have, and the problem persists, kindly call Telkom on 10210 and log an official fault.

Mr. Beep, I did

Also I asked TelkomZA @ Twitter to send someone to check my port on the DSLAM.

Sir, can you decipher what this means?

OK... can someone plz advise on another question...? if I wanted to view streaming content on HULU or NETFLIX, what would be better suited? 2mb gold, or 4mb titan? or none?

AthenianOwl · Jan 17, 2014

Anyone else down to 1.4Mbps on 4meg - Speedtest? Downloads not operational.

Keigo · Jan 17, 2014

All good here, downloading 350kb/s+.

AthenianOwl · Jan 17, 2014

Now my OW account is performing well

No more slow speed issues. I can watch a 720p youtube video smoothly

Thanks.

Hi MrR,

This test has allowed us to gather very important data.

The ultimate conclusion is that South Africans are still very bandwidth hungry, and that it is not possible to upgrade accounts without either increasing the contention ratio (thereby decreasing the quality of the connection) or charging for the upgrade.

This will be a reality until Telkom stops milking ISP's and ultimately the consumer with their ridiculous IPC costs.

You guys sure it wasn't school kids taking advantage of the extra speed? Would you guys consider another test phase, maybe the first week of March or so?
It's like giving a bergie a bottle of Old Brown and then taking it away when he's only half way

im using networx speed meter. its 100% accurate not 1% like speedtest.

i can see my average speed per hour, day, week or month for any given hour.

suggesting other ppl download and use it...
