I have no idea why i'm getting a speed of 0.20mbps when im supposed to be getting at least 1.50mb

It started only today as yesterday was fine, i'm on the simple uncapped. Anyone else experiencing issues??

I even restarted my router and still have this issue
 
since im on a uncapped account it says this :

"Thank you for logging onto the Telkom Internet Usage Tracker Tool. You are on an Uncapped product and therefore usage tracking is not applicable to you."

What colour is your tracker bar?
 
I did that, still the same. Maybe i'll just wait and see if it improves tomorrow
 
We experienced the same at home and when my father phoned Telkom he was told it was a national problem as Telkom somehow lost about 50% of it's international capacity for some reason. Line's been really weird since after lunch yesterday, online gaming worked as normal (not that that's great thanks to poor upload) but every other site would take an eternity to load.

There was a SAIX international throughput issue earlier this week.

Still persisting somewhat though methinks. Google services seem to have suffered especially. Bing is instant (local server perhaps?) but google lags compared to usual and it's the same everywhere else. One site normal the next laggy as hell or even timing out and failing to load.
