Not sure, just did a quick test because I suspected something was wrong when a Web page was taking more than 5 minutes to load on my laptop

In Cape Town and my VoX is running full speed.
My best server was in Mopotu.
Still slow as fsck
Hope its sorted out by this afternoon as I want to stream the Note 5 launch
Weird man, sounds like the problem is either in DBN or on your side:
Hope you get to the bottom of it.

^^^ this. getting full speed on a 2mb line even better than my 10+10g TM package which has gone to shyte.
I think most of the issues on this thread are not directly related to VOX itself, could be the exchange congestion. One of my friends in randburg has serious congestion issues after 5pm most days adn weekends.
From my experience this it is truly unshaped and unthrottled, atleast in my experience up until now (since the 100 fatpipe and now with 300gig fatpipe)
I was playing Dota2 the other night and was feeling a spike every now and then. Then i noticed I was torreting on the home server, which i immediately disabled and continued playing. Normally with any other ISP (like IS and MNT based) i tried, if i torrent something, i can barely stay connected to Steam!
So far i have not detected any kind of shaping during the day or night. Maybe this come later, maybe not, but this point it is indeed right up there performance wise, eg pure Line Speed.
Vox blinked in, cast heal on me, then Repel, so the other ISPs cannot stun me anymore. Thanks for the save!

full line speed in Sea Point, Cape Town
the performance on VOX has been such an amazing experience.
I honestly wish you guys all the best if you can keep this up, its actually horrifying though when you struggle on another account and you try VOX afterwards only to realize how bad the other ISP is.

they have been pretty good I must admit, aside from one or two latency issues in the evening.
I was speaking to a mate this week and he was telling me about an ISP that is launching soon, where they going to be selling the same speed that Vox are, except its going to be uncapped... except the price is going to be loooooooooooow.
Its going to be INSANE

I've been with VOX for probably 2 years now and it's never changed for me.
