for the hosting, most of my people i serve contents [which is rarely a few files and some other things, i host on my own machine at home, and since mosto f the people that needs my box are on myt, its pretty fast, unfortuntely, due to upload limitations, i can’t get the 2mbps… try thinking of a p2p approach maybe??

Hi,

MyT 256 is limited to 256kbit/s when accessing sites from outside Mauritius. But inside our country, things are different and the bandwidth available is 2Mbit/s (this is required for Internet TV). A few months ago, Akamai, one content delivery company, installed servers in Mauritius serving content for a number of companies (and not only Microsoft) which explains the 200kb/s you’re getting. Be happy

I blogged on that a few months ago.

I have upgraded from Wanadoo Adsl 512k to MYT 1 Mb and it turns out to be one very shitty mistake. My supposed “1 mb” is slower than my previous Wanadoo Adsl 512k and i’m paying around twice the price for that. Phoned them infinite number of times, nothing can be done, but apparently, I was capped… but that’s on the very first day I upgraded my connection. Cyber Island, my ass.

Well this sounds a good topic for debate but for you guys to get connection like 5mps or higher I think that MT should rework its network. I dont think that its current network can support that much because during peak hours you can see the difference in your download speeds and well upgrading the network to fiber optic can do the good but I dont think that MT will be willing to invest so much for now………. and on top on that theres no single company to compete with MT on the related field, myT is (supposedly) the best ADSL in Mauritius…… its the government which sucksssss.
