There appears to be a problem on international speed. Local is good (3.65 for my 4mb line, but only 0.4 download for international) :confused:

I am so Fed Up....
 
OH thank GOD...i thought my PC was stuffed!!!

Yeah my international download speeds went from 200kb/s to about 40kb/s and thats after hours. If its during the day i cant even download a 10mb file in 30mins (5kb/s). All this on a 2mb line :-(

I have also called Hellkom and complained. Today was the first time they told me that there was a problem with my exchange and that it will be fixed asap....somehow doubt it though.

So now i have gone from online gaming to nothing and from downloading 10 episodes of a series to just 1 a night. Youtube is horrible and if i want to do anything on the internet its like dial up. took me 15 mins to get into the UNISA website today :mad:

anyways im happy i suppose im not alone...atleast i now know it Hellkom n nothing on my side which also sucks because i cant fix it i have to wait for the dumbass's to fix it :-(
