Openweb Uncapped Feedback

My 4MB IS Gold is also battling this AM... can download Windows 7 SP1 at full speed from Akamai CDN, but trying to get the latest RouterOS for my RB and it's tricking down at 28kb/s... switch to Afrihost capped acc and it's the same.

Downloading from Vodacom servers locally also maxes out the line... so maybe IS international not lekka today?
 
Something not right today, seems like most web pages won't open. Seems like the web africa trail account is working fine and that is on SAIX. So maybe something up with IS today.

Actually, it's been flawless for the three months I've been using it. Managed to get line-speed during the day for Steam and it ran at about half-speed for video-streaming which was perfectly fine.

The last two weeks it's a miracle if I can browse during the day.

My Bad. I had a terrible experience on IS. I actually think i was on the normal shaped IS account, when i should have been on the Gold. Maybe system error. But it's all sorted.

No problem. Glad your issue is at least sorted :)

Yeah, I've switched over to my FNB Connect account for now.

Spot the difference :rolleyes:
 
MrBeep switched me to altech. Seems better than IS at the moment. Will have to see what the news server does though as I can only use it after hours on altech. At least now I can work some. Thanks MrBeep.
 
Hey Friends,

We have juast had word that there is a major Telkom failure affecting folks on the IS network. Telkom engineers are attending to the problem. Connectivity will be slow and latency will be high.

We apologize for the inconvenience!
 
Thanks MrBeep, was really starting to wonder what was up with IS. Hope the problem is sorted soon.
 
Both my TI and Openweb accounts are being affected by the fault, though the TI account isn't being hit as badly as the OW IS account. Not a big deal as faults happen and the account has been behaving nicely for the last couple of weeks. Here's hoping they resolve it soon!
 
@Grand Past Master....same here it would appear that this is a daytime problem because I had no problems last night and earlier this morning.
 
@killadoob - hows your connection? (IIRC you're on VB)

Just chatted to three other guys on VB in my area and they all getting the same as me 24KB/s
