Telkom Internet Uncapped User Feedback.

Weirdly my p2p is going like the clappers (for prime time), browsing is good but latency still very bad on international links.

 

[Unhappy1]

Latency still sitting on about 550-600 on my side.

 

[Yuu]

Ya , chirping in as i needed to access a site so urgently (okay thats absurd, everyone has to lol) .

If it has gone worse, it can only get better after eh?

 

[Awesum]

Streaming was terrible last night. This morning my Nzbs where downloading at 50% speed.

 

[BashX]

What's going on with TI? Browsing and acessing websites taking it's grannies time to load, youtube streaming is mighty slow and
P2P is almost non-existent.

 

[OtakuD]

Yeah since 12PM it's been dead for me, barely getting 10KB/s

 

[Unhappy1]

Yup can no longer browse international.

 

[Gboss]

International is farked!
Websites timing out.
Someone tell us whats wrong pleeezz

 

[vaaitjie]

[Pooky]

looks like Telkom is running out of international traffic

 

[opinionhated]

So... its not just me. First week on Telkom, already considering going back to Mweb. (4mbs uncapped, shaped)

international: http://speedtest.ookla.com/result/2450557684.png 600ms/900kbsDOWN/300kbsUP
local: http://speedtest.ookla.com/result/2450560333.png just as bad

After hours on the phone with Telkom this is their response... " it is an international problem and not their problem, everything is fine on their side and they not looking into the problem as its an international problem..." WTF?

Don't be dumb.
This will be sorted soon but MWEB will still be a crap company.

Ha ha. Seems to be sorted already. May be intermittent.

Never really had any huge issues with Mweb, pricing and communication about speed upgrades irked me.

 

[blunt]

bleak - something is very broken lately on ti.

netflix buffering like crazy, browsing feels like i've got a download going maxing out the line but nothing is downloading.

 

[Chris_H]

I am frustrated too, but tbh... from the looks of it, it really isn't Telkom that is broken (as in my other post):

Telia is broken. It would, however, be nice if Telkom could raise this problem with them and keeps us in the loop.

 

[Electric]

Telia seems to the hop where most of the issues are occuring for everyone really.

 

[Chris_H]

Yeah, I am in a chat with Telia support now to see if I can get something going here...
