    Telkom naked dsl

    Eish I've ordered mine, and even got my logon details in the wee small hours of this morning. My neighbour has it as well (albeit with a landline and they had it before this promotion), and with constant DSTV streaming from one device, multiple Android devices connected and doing stuff, still...

    Please do a MyBroadband speed test on Rain

    Rain results conducted a few minutes ago: Speeds having forced 2600MHz. Download speeds drop a bit during the day though most likely due to congestion, but it remains usable. Speeds on the default 1800MHz band

    4G 24hr uncapped VS 4G 19hr uncapped. Just an observation i made today.

    I had this exact issue. Are you by any chance able to force you router to use the 2600Mhz band? If your router supports the B41 (2500MHz) TDD band then it will work on Rain's 2600MHz Band 38 frequency. Albeit with a really crappy upload speed. The caveat is that the cell tower that you connect...

    To add to @KopiteZA's observation, maybe. When I had the R250 option with a 1Gb add-on, before 6pm, internet service sucked. After 6pm internet service was much better. Now that I am on the R470 option, I've noticed improved service throughout the day. (I have used the rain huawei tool to...

    Post your night time speed guys.

    Been a few days since I last updated... Due to me needing to be available after work hours, I sort of had to "upgrade" to the 24/7 Unlimited, after my mobile data got depleted. ADSL is looking to be an option for me now though. Initially speed took a dip, but it has since increased and somewhat...

    Speed Test. Been running it at different, random times. The wife has reported that it has been more usable over the last few days. I only really use it over the weekends.

    Rain is down

    Forgot to add, with external paddle antennas on both routers, I get more signal bars but not necessarily better signal strength. If that makes any sense. I'd like to get proper antennas, but l guess I have to wait a while.

    Rain is down

    +-5Mbps when doing a speed test, using the android app or from within a browser. It does depend on the time of day though. And general browsing is good. Speed does seem to go a bit pear shaped around 5pm, then get better after a few minutes.

    Rain is down

    (My first post here, yay) I've been having the same issues with Rain. Initially I thought its my router (Huawei E5186). Borrowed my neighbour's B315-936 and had the same issue...piss poor download speeds but the upload speeds of the Gods of Networking. With the same results. On the borrowed...
