Looks like Afrihost went down a few minutes ago.

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.

Afrihost hit with more ADSL problems

ADSL users on the Afrihost and Axxess networks have reported connectivity problems


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.
 
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.
