Openweb - New Fiber Solutions, clarification anyone ?

currently sitting on +-250ms in Arathi Highlands

i got 240-260ms average with the "latency fix" today over whole of epl, wpl and shattarah with my webafrica multirealm.

o and thats the whole day and every other day too, no need to fear the shape as it fits IS.

as been with some previous IS products, they are awesome in the beginning and then when its sold to much it becomes worse - just think uncapped express.
...

-still this is an interesting offer/product, which has its merits.

is this based on the saix network ? sorry its a stupid question .....
so its basically a saix account with local ?
 
I agree with marine1, so far it has not impressed me much :(

Proff
 
I have to say that Openweb is really NOT the first to have this. MTN NS has been offering this type of solution for a long time. Same goes for Xdsl or whatever their name is.

I don't mean to be vindictive towards Openweb but they have been making these bold statements for a while now and its starting to get old. The whole "were a fresh new age company" might have worked for the Virgin group but its not working for you.


My 2 cents.
 
Any other comments regarding this service?

Still been slow or what?
I may be looking at this option as its only about 40 rondt more than what I'm paying with Cybersmart. But consistency has to be good man...
 
I use the 1gb FIBER CONNECTION with openweb. Its a dream if you play on international gaming servers. 120ms ping on 384kbs is fu**** good. So I will say yes if you play games on international servers. But if you play on local server there is no diffirence same latency than a local only account same ping as a shapped account. So yes thats that. Its not a bad service. They say they sape it during bussiness hours but I get full speed on p2p during office hours so im not sure how the sapping is applied. Peace
