Please use this forum to discuss ADSL ISP’s
There have been many threads asking how to choose an ISP, or which is better, more value for money so this is why this is here. Giving mostly my opinion, along with actual prices valid at the time of the post. All prices include VAT NEW - DSL Compete or "bundled' packages where you get the...
why ? well for obvious reason that mostly this section sees the light of what went wrong, how bad it was and how angry we are - nothing wrong with laying down your complaint, but its necessary to also give praise to that isp and the person(s) involved whom have sorted, helped or done something for...
INCOMPLETE - Work in Progress Please assist by mentioning packages that should be listed below. Buying your bandwidth (ISP Portion) and DSL Line (Line Rental) at once in a bundle Telkom has recently allowed other Internet Service Providers to resell the ADSL line portion above the SAIX...
Hi all. I've been busy for a few weeks with a little pet project which would hopefully be an easy reference/guide for new and old members to keep track of offerings that are in our local market. We've always got a scenario of peeps asking about which ISP's to choose and though they all have...
Prepaid bandwidth or throughput is provided by a number of ISP's, but I will only mention the two most prominent ones: Webafrica: www.webafrica.co.za Axxess: www.axxess.co.za Prepaid bandwidth come in 4 flavours, LOCAL, INTERNATIONAL, SEMI SHAPED and UNSHAPED. Local bandwidth: You are...
as an idea to http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php?t=100320 i think it might help for those who have not, lost or do not know contacting their isp, maybe a sticky for all or each isps with just simple email, telehone and pm links...

Signed up as of this morning, was going nicely at full speed, on a 384k line. Now Astra won't connect, everything else is fine. Grrr.
So I was capped last Friday evening and desperately needed more bandwidth. The guys at Openweb got me going in no time, on Friday after 9 pm! Thanks and keep up the good work!

Since yesterday my internet is slower than Dial Up and no one seems to answer their phones. Called them the whole day and no one is answering... phoned after hours and I was on hold from the automated service for 8 min and decided to put down. I can't download anything and opening a local site...
Hey all, Im looking for some "reviews" on this account, if you can just post comments on how the account has worked for you so far. Info im looking for(you can copy paste and edit if it makes life easier) Package: EG512k Ussage: EG100GB Day Speed: 25kb/s Night Speed: full line speed
Hi all, Just a little quizzie as to some weird problems I have been having with my Mweb 4096 Uncapped account. Downloading locally and internationally are still good and have been for some time, whether it be NZB, torrents or vanilla http stuff. What bothers me is when I do things like host...
So, in the interest of keeping things a little sane around here; how about a thread on what peoples experiences have been so far with the Uncapped Service - I'm particularly interested in the CONNECT PACKAGE, but BUSINESS users are welcome too? NB: THIS THREAD IS NOT MONITORED BY THE M-WEB REP,...
Hi guys, thought I would supply some info. I cancelled Afrihost because for the last two weeks I could not download even 1 movie and experienced many disconnects. Joined Wazzup yesterday and got 1 gB free to browse so long, since my account is only active tomorrow. Noticed an improvement...
Can anyone explain this or should I contact them? Price difference is R100. I will be using it for downloading after hours (i.e. 7AM-7PM and weekends) but would like it still usable for general browsing (not streaming video) the rest of the time. Would probably be moving about 30gb per month...
Dear xxxx We've made some changes to your uncapped account which we believe will improve the overall performance and speed of your ADSL connection with us. Please read this email carefully to see what you need to do to take advantage of these changes now. Why have we made this change to...
Since no-one from DC created a new thread ... let me beat you to it! Share your DC experiences for September here. :cool:
the other shoe finally dropped after months of enjoying uncapped service. Afrihost have degraded their service so badly that they suggested I move to their IS option, which is now equally terrible - and I hate their discrectionary and non-transparent shaping/throttling that causes you to...
Jan 16th 2010 Network Status Browsing should be fine now. Other business protocols should be better too. Busy on P2P. (Rapishare, Torrents etc.) ************************************
Guys please can the 384k users, please post the following results, I'll post mine first: ISP: Webafrica (Titan 1 Deal) Bundle: 15GB / month (ADSL line rental included) Ping: 134 ms How does this ping compare to other 384k users?
Mods/Admins can move this if not @ the right place.. My question... I've got a transport company as client...their controller staff sometimes need to utilize their outlook distribution lists to full capacity to get work done outside the borders of SA to move loads between SA/ZIM/ZAMBIA...and...
I am having problems getting FQDN resolved via WA ADSL account :confused: Working fine on Telkom account ( so do not think it is a problem on my side :confused: ) Anybody else ............. Tried their website from Telkom account -- looks like that is down as well >>>>>>> :eek:
To the myBB community I would like to share my thoughts with you about TelkomInternet - the ISP division of Telkom, and hopefully start an informative, interesting and constructive discussion... There seem to be many new (and current) ADSL subscribers coming to myBB to seek advice with...
I was given an account to test by Deon at Branded Internet. As an avid online MMORPG player, I have in the past 4 months been experiencing worsening online game-play conditions, and have reacted sceptically to any new product that appears, especially if the product claims to be suitable for the...
I'm currently using mweb's uncapped 384k and the speed is just unbearably slow in the evenings. I'm shopping around for a new option and looking for some opinions. Over the past 5 months my monthly usage has been between 12GB and 23GB, so I'm not looking to download the Internet. Webafrica's...
i've uncapped line with Afrihost and I made that change to xxxxxxx@is.afrihost.com few days ago. Just thought to give it a try for any better speed with their new setup before I quit them. It the WORST HORRIBLE thing I ever done in my life. This is what would happen if you do the change. They...
