Could do it 2 months ago but after they connected the new internet cable and increased our speeds things are much worse.  ThatStinks2

Yes Mike A. Thats all thats working fine. Have you tried streaming internet radio or watch something on YouTube? Web sites that worked fine 2 monthes ago, now takes weeks to open. All local content (in Namibia) is fast. But all international content is as fast as snail mail.....

The reason torrents seem fast is because you have a lot of parallel streams, anything relying on a single high stream feed are very slow.
I get 220kBps torrent speed..... I'm definitely still complaining...

Very few people are complaining because they don't expect/know anything better.... they getting screwed and enjoying it.  sorriso2

After Charles rearranged the furniture at the Teleshop on Monday they got the message that we were not happy.  sorriso2
Apparently there was some software glitch at the Karasberg exchange.

Thanks
Charles..

Telecom upgraded our Internet hardware last night after much shouting and threatening by Charles Scheepers.
