    MTN DataShare unceremoniously removed

    I'm so pissed right now. I took a 36 month data contract specifically to share among my prepaid business devices (laptops, tablets, and phones). When I took the contact I was assured this would work and it has for nearly a year, until today, when one device after another received ”...

    Should Eskom's exemptions have been denied?

    Solar panels are cheap as chips. It's the batteries that are expensive. Let the public sell back to the grid. Sunlight hours and peak electricity usage hours overlap nearly 100% for most of the year in most of the country. With our sunny weather we should be leading the world in solar energy...

    Piracy is not theft

    I don't want to write a book because the library will buy a copy and let any number of people read it without giving me another cent. The nerve

    Prepaid eSIM

    Does anyone know if it's possible to get an eSIM activated on prepaid? I've got a Samsung watch with an eSIM but nobody at MTN seems to know how, or if, it can be activated and linked to my prepaid number. The support staff keep telling me the QR code is on the box, but I didn't buy the device...

    Will new TV licensing laws get more people to pay their licence?

    I guess this gives me even more incentive to holiday abroad every few years to replace my phone and laptop

    How to turn off unlimited Offpeak?

    I'd also like to suspend off-peak data please. I've been using rain whenever I'm away from home for an extended period. This website/policy change is really a PITA. Bring back the toggle!

    Poynting xpol 6 longevity

    Thanks Ronnie. Could you clarify, when you say under a roof, do you mean outdoors under an overhang, or do you mean inside the roof between the roof tiles and ceiling? Also, how long have you had it, and when did you notice it start rusting?

    Poynting xpol 6 longevity

    Hi everyone, What is your experience with poynting antennas in terms of longevity. I'm going to be mounting one at the coast soon. Should I sacrifice some signal and mount it inside the roof or are they built to withstand the elements indefinitely? Will the heat inside the roof do more damage...

    Rain in Aston Bay, Jeffreys Bay

    Hi everyone, Can anyone tell me if they've seen a noticeable speed increase using a router capable of 2600MHz tdd in Aston Bay/JBay? I'm maxing out at 1mbps with my current setup and wondering if it's worth getting a better router for rain or just go with MTN for now and get one that will...
