Afrihost<\/a> has apologized to its ADSL<\/a> subscribers for the problems associated with the ISP\u2019s network migration to MTN<\/a> with a mystery discount.<\/p>\n

Afrihost CEO Gian Visser<\/a> told subscribers in an email that they \u201cwanted to say sorry by giving back to you in a tangible and real way\u201d.<\/p>\n

The mystery discount is basically a reduction on the next invoice which consumers will have to pay for ADSL access.<\/p>\n

According to initial feedback from Afrihost to subscribers the discounts typically ranged between 90% and 100%.<\/p>\n

Visser added that their ADSL network has been upgraded and is performing well. \u201cIn fact recently Seacom<\/a> went down for a day and all international traffic was automatically rerouted over our other international routes and nobody even noticed,\u201d said Visser.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have also significantly increased overall capacity and redundancy of the network over the last while.\u201d<\/p>\n

Visser added that with the addition of their Cape Town and Durban IPC this weekend, overall latency should improve for clients in those regions.<\/p>\n
