    Connecting Sonoff Powr 320d to DB

    Yes exactly, thank you. This one does monitor power as well. I have since figured it out. Did not see the neutral coming from the geyser at first. Neutral from supply going onto neutral bar, and neutral from geyser also going onto neutral bar. So it's just a matter of installing the switch with...

    Connecting Sonoff Powr 320d to DB

    Hi everyone, My old digital timer finally gave out, and I want to replace it with the Sonoff Powr 320d. The old timer had three connections, live in, neutral in, and live out. This was an easy diy job. I see the Sonoff timer also has a live in and a live out, but it has two neutral connections...

    Afrihost mobile uncapped data - no service

    For more context, I reported it to the afrihost whatsapp service. The person / bot escalated it to MTN and to their LTE department, but nothing has been resolved. So I don't know what to do anymore. The same simcard doesn't work in a phone either. So it's not a router issue. And it is not an...

    Afrihost mobile uncapped data - no service

    I am on the afrihost mobile data uncapped package. I have zero service since Friday / Saturday. Reset my router, changed APN back to default and to afrihost again. Nothing works. The router just refuses to connect to the network, and the service bars are all grey. Is this a widespread issue, or...

    Huawei WS5200 or B618

    Thanks Afrinatic, I'll use the WS5200 as my main router then. Thanks rodga. I did google around a bit to see how to set it up LAN to LAN (to use as an extender), but the PPPoe v DHCP etc threw me a bit. Will do some more digging and rigging to see if I can figure it out.

    Huawei WS5200 or B618

    I used to have LTE internet with the Huawei B618, and signed up for fibre and got the WS5200. I'm not sure which is better, can anyone help? And can I connect the two (with a LAN cable in the roof) to extend my wifi signal?

    Afrihost “Claim my 1GB FREE data” - scam? fraud? ??

    Sorry about that @PKruger . I edited the post because I didn't want to get personal. The point I wanted to make was that you have to claim the free data every month. If you didn't claim the free data for the month of August, it might explain why you couldn't access the internet in the first...

    Afrihost “Claim my 1GB FREE data” - scam? fraud? ??

    Did you claim your free 1gb for August as per the Ts and Cs? And after month 3 you will have to start paying anyway... (which may be why they require your payment details etc.) "* 1GB FREE Mobile Data Promotion. This promotion is valid for any new signups or package changes. You will get 1GB...

    Cannot stop content services

    Thanks for the help people. I've tried all the ussd codes and nothing worked. Turns out I have a secondary dual simcard on the same account, and the wasp subscription was registered on that number. I've since managed to stop the subscription by dialling the ussd codes from that number. Now...

    Cannot stop content services

    Thanks man. Yes they really are sneaky and these daily R5 or R7 rands add up at the end of the month. I just wish someone could help me to cancel the subscription. Being a contract I'll only be billed for this at the end of the month, and then it will be an even bigger mission to claim the...

    Cannot stop content services

    Thanks. I've already reported it to WASPA. I suspect they won't be able to help because I cannot provide the details of the company that is billing me, and MTN apparently does not know either. It's a six year old contract that I took out from MTN direct, no middleman involved.

    Cannot stop content services

    Is there anyone from MTN on here who can help me to stop a content service charge on my account? After three days, three calls, and numerous emails, no one from the MTN customer service seem to be able to help me. I have a MTN data contract and from the 1st of June I've been billed R4.35 (excl...

    Fixed-lte Rain peak data roll-over

    Morning AfriNatic, It still doesn't show on client zone on the web. I only have three columns - top-up, peak and off-peak, and the peak total does not include my roll-over data. On the app there are four columns, the roll-over data is an additional column. It did use some of my roll-over...

    Fixed-lte Rain peak data roll-over

    Just to give everyone feedback. The mobile app shows that my data did roll over - thanks AfriNatic for confirming - but it doesn't show on client zone on the web. So it's a platform issue, not a roll-over issue.
