I would advice against webafrica until they've gotten their act together and finally just have enough bandwith for their capped and uncapped.

Hopefully this will address the recent issues that have been posted online. We haven’t been ignoring you guys, just spotting what actually needs the attention and getting that sorted.

We’ve spotted and trended:

Gaming:
This seems to mostly lay with SW:TOR. As this is a new game and not available in SA it’s been fairly tricky to identify the traffic and properly prioritise it through our network. We’ve setup some test stations in the office and monitoring things closely to try and get this sorted. We have also included our DPI vendors to get this matched correctly.

Download Plus Hours:
We’ve seen a large spike from the start of Download Plus on both Capped and Uncapped users which seems to be having a negative effect on throughput in general. We have procured further capacity to handle this as well as expanded our already huge monitoring solutions to better track performance during Download Plus.

News Server:
Mentioned before, but we’re busy testing an entirely new News Server. Follow the thread on our forums for some more updates.

We expect to finalise the new system this week.

Thanx for all your feedback in these matters.
