We've had the same argument with their NOC. Thanks for your patience on this one, glad it's resolved.

Please can you check, asked Riya wednesday last week if someone can please contact my neighbour. Details were supplied. He wants to move to WebSquad. Still no one has contacted him.
Thanks for this, I'll follow up on this.

I think that is a Google issue and not a websquad issue.
I see the same on Cool Ideas.

Now let me add my 2c
I am with this ISP and I am on Octofail.
Last night I was trying to compile a Linux distribution, and, some of the speeds I got when repos were being pulled.... Absolutely shocking. A manual access of these overseas hosted repositories ended up most of the time with timeouts and waiting 3-6 minutes for pages to load. It wasn't just one, it was several. Plain HTTPS connections, it's the same old schitt I see on other overseas sites that don't have fancy (expensive) caching and CDNs. Mastodon is my favourite, that's the one where the JPEGs take 6-9 minutes to load, but they swear it's my router!
Does anyone know if Mikrotik has AI in their routers? Because mine must be hallucinating and saying "NO" when I am trying to download code repositories... C source and header files... FFS!

What do MTR’s show?
Happy to work with you to figure your issue out.
I sent you a message to help you resolve this in September- which you chose to reject, so we're clearly not getting anywhere.
The offer stands... Work with our team, help them figure out why you are the only client on our network with the issues you have.
You've also got the option to try another ISP- no one is holding you back.
