    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    You are not getting that speed on Fixed MTN LTE. You can't even get carrier aggregation on Fixed MTN LTE anymore. Maybe on 5G now or LTE a year ago you got those speeds before MTN starting started their own throttling. Disclaimer: I hope people are looking at the thread title and not confuse it...

    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    This looks like the regular MTN throttling, no? We pay Afrihost over R600 for 100mbit, barely see 50mbit, then at 250GB locked to 20mbit. Cancelling soon and trying Cool Ideas with the R750 for a 5G router deal. Even when not downloading anything, we get ping spikes of over 3000MS and even...

    Nice UI. Would have blown me away if this wasn't around for years though: https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil

    RAIN Worst Service company ever, avoid them like the plague lol

    It happens. I ignored the comments. I got Rain 5G and it was the best 2 year internet experience I've ever had. Always got the max speed (up AND down) at all times of the day and excellent international latency. At the time (2022) it was not only the cheapest 5G, but there was zero FUP. The...

    Afrhost LTE Price Increase

    Not LTE but 5G. https://coolideas.co.za/5g-packages/ Best prices I've seen so far.

    Afrihost Vodacom Fixed 5G thread

    Damn those 5G prices and FUP at Cool Ideas puts Afrihost to shame. What's the catch?

    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    Same I haven't seen more than 30mbit on that package since August 2025. Also around the time when carrier aggregation got "switched off". I'm throttled to 10-20mbit most of the time. The only thing almost redeeming this package is you have 10mbit between 500GB and 1TB. Feels like MTN is trying...

    MTN's LTE is a mess since they disabled carrier aggregation for all uncapped packages. Likely not your issue here but it doesn't help it.

    Openweb MTN Mobile data - RUN!

    Sounds like regular MTN issues, not specific to any ISP.

    I can confirm this as well. I've not seen my 4G router (MR600) aggregate for a few months now. MTN is a network ran by scum.

    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    Yeah you signed up at the worst time. MTN is by far the worst to get for 4G right now because of their insane throttle policy. We use to take it super slow using about 10-15Gb day between 4 people with 720p streaming with a 500GB FUP. Once we were near end of month, I'd grab a game or two off...

    How many MTN numbers hijacked lately?

    I know someone who got the same message. It's actually hilarious. I think the message said something like "I accidentally sent you my pin, can you please send it back to me?". You'd have to be extremely new to tech to fall for this. The messages came from one of her contacts she regularly...

    Yeah that will always remain a big issue with wired. There are far more areas and ways it can go wrong compared to wireless. At any given moment there are hundreds of areas where Fibre is down. It's a 24/7 maintenance job.

    Shesh@ 5G 200 - 10Mbps FUP after first 100G

    Majority of 60FPS 1080p videos on Youtube are below 8mbits in my experience. 30FPS is even smaller than that.
