    Home-Connect ISP Feedback

    it seems like every time those maintenance SMS;s come through from home connect, the internet speeds are getting worse and worse, you wonder one would expect that service would be better with maintenance but I guess thats not the case with Home Connect...

    Home-Connect ISP Feedback

    Same issue here my latency to international servers is through the roof and speeds are like 3-4mbps on a 200mbps fibre line. I did call them and they were like surprised and asked me some stupid questions like connect to your CPE unit and test from there, even though I told them my local speeds...

    And which area are you in and which Fibre Network? Wish I was getting that on my 200mb line... anyway besides that it can be some percentage of their clients that are not affected but it seems that most are...

    Haha at least you are paying for 100mbps, we pay for 200mbps and sitting with like 10mbps speeds during that period:) I think Cool Ideas really need to resolve this issue, as I see more and more people are complaing about the same issue during the same period of time. No it remained the...

    This is exactly what I have been experiencing for months it is always someone else to be blamed, but mostly "Vumatel Congestion" in your area... yet Vumatel tells me that their infrastructure will handle much higher speeds and its not congested at all, but Cool Ideas always points to that. My...

    Marcell, sorry for pissing you off, I am not an idiot, this has becoming a weekly thing now that something will go wrong and internet speeds will go to 0... so I guess you are an idiot to spend R 1500 a month and get subpar connectivity... or perhaps you are even bigger idiot if you have so much...

Losing patience and I guess nothing is being done to resolve this issue once...

    But if that is the case Paul, I would put lots of pressure on them to get it fixed/upgraded ASAP, you are loosing clients at the end of the day and it impacts your business negatively, or not. Not sure however from my perspective as a client I am unhappy, thats the overall feel, and I am very...
