    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    MTN have disabled carrier aggregation on all fixed LTE and 5G products across the whole network. Plus they have a secondary throttling protocol on top on the ISP thresholds. Fixed Wireless on MTN is essentially dead. Using normal mobile data in a router, full carrier aggregation works and no...

    Afrihost Vodacom Fixed 5G thread

    I switched from the Afrihost Vodacom Fixed 5G to Vodacom Direct. I went from 20mbps odd (Afrihost) to over 500mbps (Vodacom Direct), using the same router in the same building. Afrihost do not seem to have enough breakout capacity on the Vodacom network.

    Might not. MTN has restrictions on VoWiFi. The serving ISP needs to be on the MTN approved list. So their IP ranges are whitelisted to use VoWiFi. Vodacom and Telkom, VoWiFi works on any service provider.

    +1 Pi no longer uses DSV to deliver. They use RTT. Took 2 days from JHB to Rural KZN for delivery. Pi works flawlessly, plus you have data that never expires and keeps rolling over, VoLTE and WiFi Calling both work 100%. Very happy with Pi.

    Afrihost Telkom Fixed LTE

    @Afrigirl With the move on Telkom Fixed Wireless to a wholesale APN. Will this mean breakout will only be in JHB and CPT like MTN Fixed Wireless? Or does Afrihost breakout in DBN as well for Telkom Fixed Wireless? The reason I ask, this will affect latency, as previously Telkom Directly...

    Afrihost - Pure Fibre Feedback Thread Part 2

    Thank you, So I proceed with normal cancellation on ClientZone? There is no option I need to select for holding pool/transfer? Can Afrihost release the line earlier? Once cancellation processed. I was hoping to move by August, but ClientZone says September.

    Afrihost - Pure Fibre Feedback Thread Part 2

    Hey everyone, Can someone help me, from their own experience please. If I cancel my Fibre with Afrihost (OpenServe) and want to move to another ISP. Does Afrihost move the line into a holding pool? So the new ISP can pick it up without having to reinstall the ONT and Optic? The new ISP would...

    MTN details 3G switch-off plans

    HSxPA is a software layer sitting on 3G, so the whole 3G stack is affected. Meaning yes, it will be turned off.

    Afrihost Vodacom Fixed 5G thread

    Ditto, the courier services Afrihost use are beyond pathetic! (Afrihost remind me of the post office, when ordering anything that needs delivery) I have brought this up at every occasion, and Afrihost brush it off. I have had issues with every delivery. Why companies don't use 'The Courier Guy'...

    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    The 1TB at R699 Pi are cheaper than Afrihost 400GB and the 1TB on Pi is also more data than the FUP on the highest uncapped package Afrihost offers for Fixed LTE/5G. The best effort speed for 3 months only applies to the 200GB and 500GB then it drops down. 1TB remains best effort speed.

    Afrihost MTN Fixed LTE-A Thread

    Yeah, it seems to be specific to Afrihost, if you use a MTN Direct or Pi Fixed LTE/5G SIM, you get full CA on all available bands
