Hey all

Since yesterday my int(TI) connection has been hella slow. I just figured yesterday was a bad day but its the same today again.

Anyone else having these problems?
Im in the PE/PA area if that matters.
 
I was fine yesterday but today in the last couple of hours it's really taking a while to load some international sites, not all.
 
Mine still soo damn slow...I even phoned telkom....ya...im that desperate.

The more i tell the lady that its slow, the more she says no its fine, their system doesnt show any problems with my line :/ Dont know why i bother with them
 
It's been a problem since Thursday or Friday. Still terrible at the moment on both my SAIX and IS.
 
My speed tests run fine BUT international downloads sucks. If have tested downloads directly from web sites (download, com, winamp,com, microsoft.com, apple.com) - all are very slow. Same with torrents. To make it worse it seems that ppl are not seeding as well. Dunno what the problem is but it seems to be related to the international link.
 
International is erratic for me on IS, some sites work and some don't.
 
International speeds are worse than ever for me right now, I'm getting 8.5k on a 4M connection with IS/Axxess, this is ridiculous :mad:
 
Mine has been erratic for the past 2 weeks now. I have not been able to Google for the past week and a lot of international sites either don't load, load very slowly or only load partially.

ADSL 384 - Axxess Basic Semi-Shaped
 
Same here also been slow the last couple of days. Even our leased line is affected.
 
second this behaviour

International sites also slow or partial loading for me too, on a 4meg line wth Axxess semi.
Sites affected; Anandtech, Tomshardware, Wired.
 
I have just bought 1gig prepaid from Web Africa and after logging in I don't have the problems I had with Axxess. So I guess I'll be cancelling my account with Axxess.
