Openweb Uncapped Feedback

[froot]

It's stuff like this that makes me weary of getting gold for myself.

No no no....
Gold has been awesome the whole month!
It's only been today that it's been slow! My account's been blazing fast the whole month!

 

[SomeoneEls]

Same problem!
OW Gold 384, getting 55% of linespeed.
Checked another ISP account, 100% linespeed (so it's not me).

suppose 55% is better than the 5% I'm getting on 4MB... Very high pings too!

My upload speed is fine, pings are (I think) normal. Only download speeds that are completely buggered.

 

[SomeoneEls]

My download speed is completely messed, pings are slightly high now, not as high as a little earlier in the day! Upload speed is perfect.. if only my download speed was as stable as upload....

4meg gold line and this is my speeds today. No problems all month either.



Something is broken.

Is it still required to sign a 12-month contract when selecting the Mweb account instead of the IS account?

Seems the answer is no.
I emailed Keona and asked.

Something is broken.

Agreed, seems like a similar problem to the one that a lot of people experienced at the end of last month and beginning of this one.... Hopefully will be fixed a lot quicker!!

Definitely broken...line syncing at 4mbit and getting really ****ty speeds on Astraweb...and I just signed a debit order. Not too happy.

Don't worry dude.... I'm sure it's only a minor glitch.

 

[Maestr0]

Hopefully it is just a minor glitch...but it happens too often.

Speeds are sluggish again.
I will reboot my router and see if it helps.

Jun 28 23:26:55  	user  	notice  	dnsprobe[615]: Primary DNS server Is Down... Switching To Secondary DNS server
Jun 28 23:36:57 	user 	notice 	dnsprobe[615]: Switching Back To Primary DNS server

Why is this happening though? The dns entries is filling about 80% of my log file. DNS queries are failing like mad.

And still no fix, no solution, no update as to the problems.

 

[froot]

Thanks Mr Beep for the help.
My account works much better now.

 

[Redeemer30]

Thank you MrBeep seems its all fixed and back to normal.

 

[SomeoneEls]

sucks ass! Using my WA stand-by account at the moment... am getting over uncapped! 50GB at a decent speed may be the way forward!!

 

[MrBEEP]

Hey Friends,

There is currently a Telkom fault causing slow speeds all round.

Engineers are attending.

We apologize for the inconvenience.
