Hi Guys

Most of you know this, but S/W's exchange has a really bad reputation about being slow:mad:. So, Ive started a Speedwave. A Speedwave allows you to compare your connection speed/ping with others around you.

I have decided to open this speedwave to residents of Somerset West - as it is the location where I live.

I would like to see as many people taking part as possible, and it will help to see what the situation around S/W is with internet.

To Participate, please follow the link below, click Join this speed wave in the top right hand corner and do a speed test.

Thanks

Got a ping of 27ms. Download 0.88, up 0.43. 1Mb line using Axxess. Have an 851 number.
 
I called them and "All services were functioning optimally" at that point. 2 seconds later this was posted on their site. Obviously there is an issue somewhere

Throughput issues [Posted: 27 Mar 13]
We are aware of throughput issues for our Cape users. Our engineers are busy investigating. We apologise for any inconvenience.
 
Had no issues for just about a month . This morning my connection dropped to the verge of being unusable again . Max DL around the 30 kb mark on a 4meg line .

Using a 850 number .

* Moved to Somerset recently , yet to change profile location :P
