    Have you ever cheated on an exam?

    It’s harder to cheat than to actually study. With the modern systems, cheating is bloody hard to do. It’s easier to master the content and pass the exam than having someone slip you the answers during the exam somehow (I assume that would be the method unless you stole the exam papers) If only...

    MTN issue with BES activation

    As far as I can tell, it’s BIS that was decommissioned, not BES. Found an article about it from around 2013. There are definitely users running on the server right now.

    Definitely still running as my client is using it, albeit in South America.

    MTN issue with BES activation

    Tried Vodacom and FNB SIMs also - same issue. I remember there used to be a code that you need to type in - this is on an MTN contract SIM but I’m not against going out to buy a prepaid SIM from whatever network.

    MTN issue with BES activation

    Bet you haven’t heard this one in years - I’m struggling to get a BlackBerry 9300 activated on a BES server. It’s not getting a host routing table and the service books seem sparse. Can’t do enterprise activation. Any ideas? Working on a project where I need access to a BES server quite...

    Axxess/Frogfoot issues

    Am I the only one who seems to be having endless issues with the combination of these two companies? I had1Gbps FTTH installed September last year and my total downtime has been close to a month, yet they refuse to credit me for anything. I have yet to approach the legal options in this regard...

    Rate Axxess

    I’ve always found their tech support to be friendly and helpful in the short term. I have, however, been having issues with my connection since it was installed last year. I have been down the second day now and they are doing nothing about it.

    P.S. I would prefer an MS original, last time I bought a generic Apple charger, it worked for 30 minutes and blew up.

    Xbox One (Original) Power Brick

    Hi The power brick on my Xbox One gave in this afternoon, where can I pick one up? Preferably in Helderberg area. I phoned Dion Wired, Incredible Connection, BT Games - none of them have. I don’t want to go and buy an Xbox One S because it really isn’t that much better than the older one, plus...

    Is 3DS dead in SA?

    I have two of them, one working and one broken. Bought mine at Incredible, but they are pretty scarce though, especially if you don’t want to get ripped off.

    VOIP Handsets

    Be super careful with Switch Telecom. I know someone who just lost R8k this morning thanks to Switch Telecom security not being up to scratch. Also, some of their call rates are ridiculous, I've spotted international call rates on their CDRs that work out as high as R400 per minute to some...

    We have two lines with MTN and we're currently on vacation. Both lines have international roaming and calling. Both are used on iPhone 6S devices. One of them are working just fine and another has been dead for 2 weeks. It is constantly reporting "No Service." It has done so in France...
