No feedback yet?
Seems like Afrihost and Telkom staff now man your call centre and email replies to tickets.

Now sitting at 700 ms to the NAG ts server. xD

EDIT: Seems latency isn't my only issue anymore (Have a 2 mbps line with WA) :/

Midnight and crawling again. 4th night in a row I am forced to use another account. Please sort this out already.

And so day number 5 has been hit with extremely high latency, the sad part is that it is Friday. :/

The WA support ticket I have got a reply, they're saying that it's still due to the software updates...

I'm lagging badly in my DOTA2 game right now - ranging from 50ms - 200ms, instead of sub 40ms.

Here's a traceroute, which doesn't say much:

wasnt aware this was a general thing, the lag. I'm having a terrible time playing LoL with an extra 100ms thrown on-top of the normal ping in game. Cannot work out why as my tracert is also pretty much clean. Seems WA is a common denominator. Dissapointing after I've become used to a decent ping! please resolve

So after a couple of days of dealing with telkom it seems to be the web africa account giving me crap... that tagged onto the fact that my line IS slowing down at times makes this really unpleasant.

Telkom advised me to change isp's.. and i advised them to fix my line and the jolly jerk off continues... WA Read the tread and fix the pings!

Been slightly better today, but would be nice if we actually got some sort of acknowledgement and explanation.
