I've had telkom reset the line including downgrading me to 1meg line and that just dropped me even lower to under 15k. My local connection is around 150k/160k so its moving nicely but international is pathetic. Why does my international connection grind to a halt when it hits the London Mweb IP of 176.67.177.131 (like mentioned earlier in this thread) and suddenly get over 200ms ping rate. Now I barely get over 30k and sometimes dialup speeds, flashing me instantly back to the days of hearing the ping and green streaming blocks of graphics. I live right next to the Durban exchange and used to get between 90k to just over 100k per second on my previous 1meg telkom line.

Mweb 2mb uncapped upgrade#
I've been experiencing issues though since this upgrade happened. Hi guys, I'm on a 1meg uncapped (haha) ADSL account (mweb obviously) with a recently upgraded 2meg Telkom line. Have also tested while the landline was disconnected. Mweb has said that there can't be congestion on the exchange because there is 18% space available, but my experience at night contradicts thisīypassing all wiring in house, so plugging the router directly into little boxy thingy (Sorry, I don't know the term for this piece of equipment) instead of running a cable from this Telkom box to the study where the router is located. Telkom keeps advising that nothing is wrong with the line and closing the call. Was upgraded from 1MB to 2MB on the 14th of September and have been experiencing high latency since the 21st of September.ĭuring the day all seems fine with the ping being around 55-62ms while at night the ping goes up to between 700-1000ms. I am connecting to the Eldoraigne (012 658) exchange. I have the same issue as described above.
