No problem. It's possible that he's run out of accounts that he can change (I'm speculating). I know WA is working hard on solving the problem.
 
My account is running at full speed, according to speedtest, but browsing and downloads are slow during the day. I wonder if there is some additional throttling being applied. Hmmmmm.
 
I'm experiencing the same issues as Imagine101011 on WA. Absolutely great after hours. A total disaster during office hours.
 
Download speeds @ 1kbps to timeout, speednet reports my line is running @ full speed...don't tell me there is no heavy throttling. As soon as I can get of WA and go back to VB where it is a little saner, the better.

:/

WA is working on it, but they haven't fixed it yet. Glad I popped over to VB for the time being.

I got a VB login from Keoma, tested it, but I still prefer the WA account despite this office hour problem. I'll stick with the WA account for now. I just hope WA sort this issue out soon. I don't mind heavier shaping during office hours, but http downloads that go at 1KB/s and less and/or just fail completely is unacceptable for a Gold account.

I'd have considered that but I use my account during the day...

Saying the speed is 'crap', and not emailing us will not resolve your problem.

Hi GateCrasher

How is your DSLHeaven account treating you today?

i was doing some downloads from around 07h30 which just finished now on usenet. was getting 250-300kB/s on dslheaven.

edit - had also done some http downloading at around 8 and that was around 250kB/s (the particular server never gives me full speed) and browsing was good (the usenet downloads were on pause at that time).

My VB, DSL H and now IS accounts slowed WAY down to between 5 and 19KB/s for http and 0 and 9KB/s for nntp downloads, but at 5pm to 8am everything is normal...... probably due to extra internet traffic...

Hey guys,

My browsing atm is up to sh*t. Local works most of the time, but int is like trying to win the lotto.
Weird thing is that my NZBs and http downloads run fine. I struggle to get the http download to start, but when it does it runs full speed, even on a 1.2GB Linux ISO.

I'm on the VB network, Gold 1Mb. I'm enquiring if something is wrong atm before I bug Koema with something that is out of his control.

My speedtest results to http://speedtest.mybroadband.co.za/ are:

Local
Download Speed: 743 kbps (92.9 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 120 kbps (15 KB/sec transfer rate)
Latency: 58 ms

On Int I only get the ping test, of 214ms, but the download/upload test doesn't start. Have been waiting for the last 10 min for it to do anything.

Anybody else experiencing the same problem?
 
Having same international problems, DL are running at 6.6kb/s but browsing is fine. First time in months.
