Loving my 8ta

[Telkom Mobile]

Not sure how anybody can still be pleased with 8ta's service. Once again I'm unable to do what I got the contract for because 8ta's network is overloaded. Ridiculous really.

Hi Speedster

We will be sending a technician to test the streaming and buffering from site. The last technician got readings of about 4MB.

I have a question

My 8ta 10Gig promo, goes from 4MBps to 1.1MBPS in a second. Tested it 10 times in a really short span from each other, and it jumps a hell of a lot between 4MBps and 0.9 MBPS....how can I get this constant as I have full signal?

Hi WaBWaWWaD

As akescpt has mentioned - 3G is usuallly not constant. Depends on factors like the number of users on the 3G tower you connect to at the time and what they are up/downloading, your location, the weather etc.

I had a 1 meg ADSL line with a 10 gig data package that was costing me about R450 a month. Switching over to the 10+10 promo from 8.ta is saving me a good R250 a month. I am an old fogie due to retire soon and that is serious cash.
Being a wireless service the speed varies but overall it is good - I have had no disconnects.
Nothing to complain about!

Glad you are having a good experience.

Does this mean one can expect a lot of buffering when streaming rugby for instance over 3G?

Fantastic streaming experience with the Boks/England game tonight. The best it has ever been. Thanks 8ta.

And here I am once again sitting unable to watch the Euro 2012 (or yesterday afternoon's rugby) due to serious connectivity issues with 8ta. Any prospective buyers should be warned there are serious issues with streaming supersport.com on 8ta.
