Try this before you do anything drastic:

Download Streamlink and Streamlink Twitch GUI.

Once both are installed open Streamlink Twitch GUI - Settings - Enable advanced settings.

Now go to the third tab, it should be called Streamlink, set the stream type to rtmp and HLS segments to 10.

Twitch 5's dev had to change the name to Alternate Player for Twitch. So if you can't find Twitch 5, that's why.
 
Anyone in Southern Suburbs experiencing horrible connectivity? I got a 10Mbps line and only getting around 2 lmao.

Having some sort of issue with GitHub, speeds maxing out at about 80kbps averaging around 30kbps :mad:

And I have many more docker containers to download :(

What is going on Telkom?
 
What does priority pass in the TI Uncapped Control Panel do? And when can it be used?
 
So I picked up a Telkom Integrated SIM and it's linked to my landline and there's no data showing up on it? There is a data connection but I can't see any data allocated to the SIM on the User CP.

When FUP is not currently applied, shaped traffic protocols are not shaped (so your uncapped account behaves like a SoftCap account) while the priority pass is active.

When FUP is being applied (IOW between 19h00 and 21h00 while on FUP level 1), your account won't be throttled while the priority pass is active.

Concrete example:
- You have 2Mbps uncapped
- You reached more than 90GB outside NightSurfer time this month at 19:30
- At 19:30, you are throttled to 1Mbps (having been limited to 2Mbps before that)
- At 20:30, you use a priority pass
- The portal shows you that you have an active priority pass that expires at 21h30
- From 20:30 to 20:59:59 you are no longer throttled as if you were not in FUP1 (you are limited to 2Mbps as usual)
- From 21:00:00 until 21:29:59 your torrents are not shaped
- From 21:30 your torrents may be shaped if there is high demand.

Changes are immediate/exact, however existing "flows" (e.g. tcp connections, or udp packets with same source/dest ip/port) may not be changed immediately. So, e.g. if you had a single-TCP connection download running (e.g. FTP), I hope it is resumeable ...

Clear? Make sense?

Thanks it makes sense now.

One more thing, why is there no data being allocated to my Telkom integrated data SIM?

It can't be linked to a landline, but a Telkom Internet account (or TIN).

If it is linked, you will see it in customerportal.telkomsa.net (under Profile or similar).

and there's no data showing up on it?
Click to expand...

Showing up where? I believe at present you can only see it on customerportal.telkomsa.net and the old tracker (https://secure.telkomsa.net/titracker). There should be a 'Mobile' 'tab' where you see your DSL account's usage "doughnut".

You should also see your mobile connection in the list of connections on the Connectivity page (and the Overview page should show one connection for Mobile).

There is a data connection but I can't see any data allocated to the SIM on the User CP.

1)Did you set the APN name? You must set it to TelkomInternet. This data only worka on the TelkomInternet APN.

2)If you can see on the device the IP you get, what is the first half? It should be 105.185.x.x.

Ok the SIM is linked to my TI Uncapped account. The SIM is showing under the settings when I click on the mobile doughnut but there's no data allocation showing for it and on my mobile device the SIM is showing LTE available but nothing will load. The phone says no internet connection available.

The quota will probably only occur on first correct mobile authentication (that was the way it was when I left, there were plans to change that, but I guess not finished yet.).

Please do the last two checks in my previous post.
