    To those MWeb/MFN users in Gauteng, did it get better this evening?

    Tonight ... R999 for a line you can not use during prime time. Ok if you want to game at Midnight though.

    To those MWeb/MFN users in Gauteng, did it get better this evening?

    Thanks for the reply. It seems to get worse later now and finish earlier. It was bad last night for 2 hours from 7-9pm And this was Tuesday night ... That big red block at 7:40pm is me resetting the ONT and Router, as recommended in the SMS. So perfect during the day, and unusable at...

    To those MWeb/MFN users in Gauteng, did it get better this evening?

    I am one of those MWeb/MFN users in Gauteng who service deteriorates between 6:30pm and 10:30pm, but the rest of the time it is perfect. See this thread ... https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/threads/mweb-quality-of-service.1128748/page-2 Anyway I received this SMS today ... "Dear Mwebber, the MFN...

    MWEB quality of service

    I am so glad (and sorry) to see I am not alone in my misery with this crowd. I have Metrofibre through Mweb and this is how my packet loss has looked every night this week. I have other graphs from other nights, but a waste of time posting as they all look identical. They responded once to my...

    Does RAIN sell 5G routers?

    But anyone who bought the router and the early adopters before that I assume own their router.

    Where can I legally buy mp3's in South Africa?

    I am not sure you will be able to find anywhere that does MP3s these days, as AAC based codecs are better quality. Have you thought of an Apple account? You can buy when and what you want, and you can convert the files to whatever format you want. Just make sure you do not buy content that has...

    Star Trek: Axanar

    Paramount/CBS owns the IP of Star Trek. They had been incredibly lax on fan films until Axanar came along. Axanar used donations from fans to build a new studio, sure for Axanar but then for whatever else they want to create for profit afterwards. So not a non-profit fan film at all. They used...

    Free to air channels

    It has been a very long time since you were able to manually do anything with a DStv box besides watch DStv. It is essentially a satellite cable box. You will have to subscribe to DStv's entry level package which is R29 per month to see the basic channels, OR Get a new Openview decoder OR Get a...

    Rain blocking Speedtest.net shares? Plus abhorrent connection!

    All good here ... getting 200/20 speeds on Ookla and Mybroadband tests. Do you maybe have a VPN running? That sometimes messes these tests around.

    Is anyone in SA using the Amazon Fire TV?

    You can get them from Takealot. I got two of mine from there, and one from Raru when they had the USA store. I have three TVs in the house and everyone has their own. I think I have bought 6 of them, but two were the very old weak ones and got replaced. I use three of them through a DNS...
