    Haven't had a problem with 8ta so far, except when I leave PE. Then change to Voda or CellC.

    So what is happening. Are we getting upgraded or a patch for the speed/latency issues.

    A guy came out this morning and confirmed that there is a problem. He tested the speeds on his own laptop as well and could only get up load speed of 0.03 Mbps
    spend some time on the phone but could not find the problem. tried to upload a file of 5 meg but could not.
    I am about 100 meters from the tower.
    Said he is going to the tower to do some tests there. I must call back in 2 days time and complain if it is not better....
    So i am note sure if they are doing to fix it......

    I had the tech guy at my office yesterday and he tested the connection and told me that there was something wrong at your end. Upload speeds on his laptop was very bad as well. He could not upload a 5 meg file. He said he was going to the tower to do some tests there. This morning i did a test and this is what i got
    Down 0.66Mbps
    up 0.03Mbps
    Ping 142
    local speed test
    crm ref. 1624521
