Slow line again, international slow, local fast.
World of Warplanes updating at snails pace (22mb update!)
Facebook, Gmail, Twitter all dead slow.

I had the same problem when I was on an @mynetwork.co.za account. For some reason, those websites were particularly slow a lot of the time.

Streaming can be shaped during peak, based on how busy the network is.

Things are busy right now, but not so busy that we have to shape streaming.

ok thanks, but I am no clearer as to which option would be better for my requirements... 2mb gold uncapped, or 4mb titan uncapped?

are there test accounts that I could use to evaluate?
 
Hi MrBeep,

I just want to find out, the current special running OpenWeb Titan 10Mbps @ R399.
Will this account stay on this price or is the limited time offer just that there is a limit to the amount of these that will be sold?
 
If you purchase the account, the price will be locked in for the life of the account.

I'm currently on a 2mb Gamers King package, I dont care too much for weekday speeds, but will going for one of those Gold accounts on special be a big jump in performance (gaming & downloading) or would i not really see a difference ?

Should double your performance almost.
 
Mannemarak said:
WOW almost double, could you give some more info on "performance" will ping be lower, more constant speeds on downloads etc?

Sounds awesome, worth a ponder

Just request a test account first. I'm on 4Mbps Gamers King and my speeds at night and during weekends are pretty much the maximum I can expect (over 400 kBps).

Sadly, it'll be a while still before ISPs provide a high level of prioritisation for streaming (Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP)). Pretty much the only real problem I am having atm. But you should get better performance on that with the Gold package afaik.
 
Beep what is the priority on those Titan accounts , higher or lower than my current gamers king ?

I needed the issue to be addressed on Saturday not Sunday. If you think that's an acceptable response time regardless of weekend/skeleton staff then you have major problems at OW.

You know, people do actually rest at some point.
Patience is a virtue.
