    Axxess MTN Fixed LTE.

    Thanks for that. The service is actually being used by my Mom in SA, so I am remote supporting her from Europe, and it has been hard to work out what the heck is going on! Fortunately she still has her old Cell C LTE router from before Axxess switched them over to MTN, and a Cell C PAYG sim in...

    Axxess MTN Fixed LTE.

    Im having the exact same issue. Everytime I call the contact centre I get told to do a factory reset on the router, update APN, force to 3G, then set back to Auto. It is their standard response. Its been nearly a month now - and no Internet. Their call centre is pathetic. My advise is stay...

    Kulula’s extra legroom "disappears", but still charged full price

    You are spot on. Space is a the product of length x width. The 737-800 average seat width is 17in. The A320 is 18.2in. Width is extremely important in the overall perceived comfort levels. Even 34in pitch at 17in can feel cramped. I actively seek A320s with wide seats installed for all my...

    Kulula’s extra legroom "disappears", but still charged full price

    Yes. Kulula use Rockwell Pinnacle, Mango uses ACRO, and Safair use Safran (ex Zodiac) Rockwell Collins Acro Series 3 Safran Slimplus Important to note here that the Rockwell Pinnacle is actually a class above the two other "fixed slimline" seats - they were designed for a 31in pitch and...

    Kulula’s extra legroom "disappears", but still charged full price

    I’m curious. Did you do *any* research before publishing this article? Research would have shown you : 1. Kulula use Boeing 737-800 aircraft. 2. These aircraft are in global industry standard (and certified) config of 189 passengers. This seat layout is called a LOPA. It’s a legal document...

    iPhone 5 & lte

    Vodacom support LTE on prepaid on the iPhone 5. You will however need to phone them on 155 and ask them to activate the service, then specifically ask them to sync the sim. The call center will know what this means. Edit : check out https://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ for a list of compatible...

    Has the iPhone4 signal problem been sorted out?

    Short Answer - No. If you hold it a particular way, it will drop. You can put the phone into field test mode - *3001#12345#* "call" and try holding it different ways and you can see how the signal is effected. If you are really persistent, you will be able to get it to drop a call. For the most...

    Is voice quality better over 3g ?

    GSM and UMTS both use the AMR codec. Later implementations use AMR and the AMR-WB codec.

    Is voice quality better over 3g ?

    Not true. Disabling 3G on the iPhone will force all your calls via the 2G network. For example, Vodacom run two cell networks : a 2G one (GSM using TDMA), and a 3G one (UMTS using WCDMA). The radio circuity in your iPhone basically has two radios : one that listens in on the 2G radio network...

    Iphone 4, R4000 pay in on Talk 500...

    Good grief. If thats the price, its a complete ripoff. They are R5500 in Switzerland off contract and unlocked, plus you get the GST back when you leave to come home..
