    When ISP support staff want to "fix" your IP

    If we want to nitpick, I am very likely getting a "fixed IP" as per definition attached and not a true static IP.

    When ISP support staff want to "fix" your IP

    I changed ISP's recently and replied to the sign-up ticket on their system as follows: ------------------- Hi Router received, thank you. I need a fixed IP - is there an additional cost? thanks Neville ------------------ Their response: ------------------ Staff - 10/01/2025 4:00 PM Good day...

    Cool Ideas Fibre ISP – Feedback Thread 6

    It was ok yesterday, 4 Jan, in our part of Table View. Down this morning, 5 Jan. Seems like new problem, same rotten FF network. Vumatel application logged. At this rate I will have a new line with new ISP and new fibre provider before FF sorts out their shite.

    BTW, they’re increasing prices in Feb. That’s really going to strengthen their case… ROFL!!

    Frogfoot - Western Cape

    Thinking of moving to Vumatel as that is the other fibre provider in my area. No experience with them, are they any good? Was on Octotel before and never had an issue in the four years at that address. Unfortunately not available where I am now.

    Discovery Bank

    I briefly thought about it but then remembered a new bond means new bond registration fees. I have no desire to burn money like that.

    Amazon has the "successful formula" for e-commerce in South Africa

    More than tripple the price on Amazon.co.za...doesn't look like a winning recipe so far... I bought one of these just last weekend at Peacock Coffees for just over R600.
