Vox Telecom Fatpipe

From the weekend passed till today my speeds were crap.. Even on speedtest it showed that.

Did 3 tests now and this is what I got





Still over the place. Telkom checked my line and all is fine there... sigh

Have you tried another ISP?
 
Since this worked for someone else, let me try too...

Anyone looking to get rid of their 400GB account, please pm me before cancelling!
 
Anyone else having International issues?...
Twitter, Linkedin & Speedtest.net amongst others isn't working.

I lost connection to Source Forge at about 1am so I can confirm that international was playing up.
I didn't test any other sites, as I was eager to commit some code changes, and switched to my Telkom Backup account.
Everything is running fine on telkom so must be a VOX related issue.

Likewise.. I was trying to git pull a project that me and my brother is working on.. Nothing. Still nothing. 11:00am - 2 May 2017.
 
Having troubles in George,ping is 180 average :/ even switching over to axxess my ping is stuck at 180-190 ?

Anyone else?
 
Surprisingly, for the first time ever, I was having problems with the Telkom account so switched to VOX and it has been working perfectly.
It is normally the other way round where Telkom backs up VOX but not this time.
I even did a bit of streaming with no issues.
 
Vox international completely broken, switched to another isp and everything working on that side.
Getting really tired of the performance of this Vox account.

Yup same here.

But haven't had issues in a while, been rock solid most of the time.

Same here, second time this week.

Only happens late evening/early morning.

Got a bunch of data to throw in their face today/tomorrow.
 
I am try int to commit changes to SorceForge and the data is getting lost in cyberspace.

Some changes show up some not.
VOX is dropping packets like crazy.

I am going to stop befor I corrupt the damn codebase.
 
Jumping on the complaints bandwagon here too. Vox 400 gb promo account here, normally rock solid. Today - not. International today particularly bad. Not normal for me, this account is usually great. So good I gave up having a backup account long ago.
 
Since everybody is complaining about Vox let me do the opposite. Out of the 3 Capped accounts I have Vox is hands down the most consistent. Ping usually at 9ms while with Afri and CW it can go up to double that and their speeds are as erratic as my beloved country's currency.
 
Looks like the issues are mostly being reported in the Western Cape.
Jhb seams to be running fine, possibly better than normal now that the Western Cape load has been shed :)

I switch to telkom and all is good again.
I will try VOX later when my business is not dependent on it.

I think Vox rocks. I was just adding my voice to the above. Mainly so those guys didn't feel alone...:love:

I am in the Cape and have no issues.
