Telkom Internet Capped/Uncapped User Feedback (Pt2)

Thats average speed? I don't think i average much more than 340 over a night and that has to be very well seeded torrents.

Usually 150-200GB per month
Telkom is perculiar with torrents.

If it isn't very well seeded, it doesn't reach full speed or sometimes sits on 0. Axxess and WebAfrica go straight to full even with fewer seeders.

I dont usually have that problem, its just that sometimes on lower seeds the speed drops for 10 - 15 minutes to 50-100kb and then goes back to full.
 
Everything seems slow at the moment, pages take ages to load.

Anyone in KZN or elsewhere experiencing the same?
 
Oh this is a joke. I tried the most popular torrent and watched it for a few minutes.

It downloaded 27meg and got me excited. Then it simply died!
 
Hey ranger, is there any reason the ping to Luxembourg is so high recently?

MickZA - you 041360? I'm 041373.
Yep, 041360 - maybe you get decent speeds during nightsurfer?

I'm also experiencing the hop 2 funny since a Telkom "network upgrade" 2 weeks ago:

... actually those figures aren't bad considering I'm chowing 4Mb/s on torrents :)
