So, okay, nothing has actually changed here, aside from the fact that the speedtest runs really fast. :confused:
 
We believe most problems should be fixed as of around 17h30. If you're still getting very slow access, please provide:
-traceroute to the server
-speedtests (local and international on speedtest.mybroadband.co.za are fine)

Strangely, my torrents seem to be a bit better. Currently at 70-80% of line speed, and it's not even torrent time yet (00h00)
 
My download manager speeds suddenly became much better like someone flipped a switch
 
Wish I could say the same. Trying to play Minecraft right now, getting 20kB through on my 2Mb line (10% capacity). I walk faster than the world can load.
 
Seems like Telkom has tried throttle downloads to help the ping.
 
Here we were thinking that 2Mbps upgrade speeds will improve our internet experience but the speeds are worse than 1Mbps. Still it's much better now than it was during the day

This is all backend contention, they probably didn't plan accordingly for the mandatory upgrades, get used to it, it should be a few weeks till they get their crap together, this is as much a financial crisis at Telkom Internet as it is infrastructure.

No, there was a different issue, which should now be resolved.

Welcome back, mate!!! Must have been hectic these last few days?

+1

Glad to finally see you back here :)

You upgraded already ... , still waiting patiently for it to happen here ...

Also hoping that it will improve our internet experience ...

If it does I just might be tempted to push it to 4mb ...
 
Had some full speed NNTP downloads between 12:00 and 6am maxing my 10Mbit line out.

Speedtest to London shows 200ms ping and 6.5Mbit speeds using Netcera server:3232634465.png

Let's see how long this lasts until the throttle switch gets flicked back on around 8/9am ...
