Vox Telecom Fatpipe

At the moment it seems a good idea to have an account with every ISP and then swop between them as required.
 
What type of latency do you get on vox in cape town to other cape town servers and joburg servers? Specifically mweb (CS GO) and IS (Quake Live).
 
Anybody else having slow speeds with fatpipe this morning. My speeds are about 10% of what they are normally.

Just tested. Im getting full line speed and its consistent. On an international download.
 
Vox is probably getting more customers with this special than they have ever attained over multiple years.
 
Hello

Just been off the phone with Vox regarding promo fat pipe.
I did ask them about P2P and answer was 24/7 throttled. All other protocols normal speed.
Also ask throttled speed cant answer me on this point.

I've never seen torrents drop below my full line speed (20mbps) at any time of day. So perhaps P2P gets de-prioritised if there's a capacity problem on the network, but I've never seen it happen.

Is there a Vox rep on this thread?

Trying to sign up for the promo but have no SA ID and the guy I'm emailing to do it manually just keeps replying do it online...
 
Finally managed to write a VBS script to change accounts at 5:55am everyday.

Perfect Automation did not work at all
 
I would be interested in that script if you are willing to share.... :)
Might need some re-work depending on your router.
This works perfectly on a TP Link Router :)
Code:
set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run "cmd"
WScript.Sleep 100
WshShell.AppActivate "C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "telnet 192.168.1.1~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "admin~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "admin~"
WScript.Sleep 2000
WshShell.SendKeys "wan set service pppoe_8_35_0_d --protocol pppoe --username addAusernameHere --password YourPassWordHere~" 
WScript.Sleep 6000
WshShell.SendKeys "~"
WScript.Sleep 1000
WshShell.SendKeys "logout~"
WScript.Sleep 100
Set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonat e}")
Set objProcess = objWMI.InstancesOf("Win32_process")
For each Process in objProcess
If (instr(1,lcase(Process.name),lcase("telnet.exe")) > 0) then
Process.terminate 0
End If
Next
WshShell.SendKeys "exit~"

When you have saved the script in a folder. Open Task Scheduler in Windows and add it on a Weekly schedule.

Lastly, double check that you have telnet enabled in Windows Features
