MWEB 10 Mbps uncapped ADSL: Telkom a problem

[rpm]

MWEB’s 10 Mbps uncapped ADSL plans hamstrung by Telkom

MWEB is planning a new 10 Mbps uncapped offering, but the company is hamstrung by a lack of capacity from Telkom

I wonder what the pricing will be like?
I cant believe we are still fighting to get more than 4mb

Telkom dragging its feet again. Why do ipc upgrades take so long?

Good to see mweb being so forthright.

Telkom could learn a few things from them.

Are any of the current legal cases against Telkom to do with IPC pricing?

[g-d-zilla]

Isn't this just so typical? "by a lack of capacity from Telkom" Surely Telkom must have known about the capacity issues?

Are any of the current legal cases again Telkom to do with IPC pricing?

If there isn't, there should be...

and of course they are waiting to feed EASSy bandwidth into their network as well. Might as well do it all at the same time.

"We need additional IPC capacity to shape you down to what our 4mb uncapped should've been in the first place."

typical.
What will it take to resolve?
more cables?

certainly not a new provider because they will just piggy back on Telkom's line

I think MWEB is worried about how much people
on 10MB will download and what their shaper
settings should be. The figures are going to be
staggeringly high and with their increase in
customers and lack of capacity, they just can't
do it.

A 10mb uncapped service that will run at 56k during the day lol

At least back in the day on dial-up there were not FUP's Is dial-up the only true affordable uncapped service in SA?

Looks like a very responsible stance from MWEB.

No rush for this, by far the most of the Country still has not got anything near to a 10meg line. Probably will still take a few months/years/decades...who knows with Telkom.
