    Trace complete.
    EDIT: This above part works because it routes over a different ISP (Openweb).

    I'm not even able to go to the Afrihost site to check what their status is.

    When an anti-piracy method is affecting the game for people who legitimately bought it and causing other people not to buy the game, there is obviously something wrong with it!

    I have both at home, Afrihost capped and Axxess uncapped. And My connetivity has been HORRIBLE to say the least.

    250 Ping to local servers for about a week now from both accounts (COD4, Blackops2, DayZ) and constant disconnects and Authentication failures.

    It's not only them though, I suspect a general IS infrastructure failure, as both are on the IS backbone and I have a test IS account aswell that's giving me the same issues randomly.

    Very frustrating.

    I posted this thread around the same time if somebody wants to merge it with this one. http://mygaming.co.za/forum/showthre...ew-minutes-ago

    Seems to be a recurring theme these days for a lot of ISP's. I'm with Mweb and seem to be fine though performance isn't as good as it was last year but I have friends who are even having trouble with them.
