    This morning my sister was searching for a new TV when she noticed Samsung.com was advertising a 50" for a whopping R7.50!! At first she suspected this was some kind of scam but the more she look at it the more she realised it was legit. Anyway she went ahead and ordered the TV, paid R7.50 and...

    Advise on 1km fibre line laying

    Advise on 1km fibre line laying

    They don't have coverage in the area. I have enquired with a few WISP's as well and none have got back to me with a definite answer. That's why we are now exploring the fibre route. Ideally, the company would like a 100Mbps line, 1Gbps if within their budget.

The farm currently has businesses which are quite reliant stable internet however the WISP's in the area are not reliable at...
