    Two fibre lines at one property?

    My house is setup that way, so it can be done. Openserve will not install two physical fibre lines in one property, so do not even try. Your optical terminal however has four ports in the back and each of these ports can be "acquired" by a different ISP. So, four ports, four ISP's, if you want...

    Pilots landing at OR Tambo forced to do so without guidance system used in low visibility

    No pun intended, and I am in no way stirring the pot, but is this really such a big issue? Pilots have been doing visual approaches and landing in all kinds of aircraft since December 17, 1903! Besides, all the airports in South Africa have RNAV approaches defined which is flown with the...

    Telkom fibre nightmare

    No pun intended, but why on God's green earth do people still do business with the Great Evil? (Telkom) I have personally tried them three times and in all three times they f***ed up the service. In all three cases the service was mediocre to say the least, the support was ... jeez, I don;t...

    Telkom is killing itself

    I am one of those that will NEVER do business with Telkom again. After so many years of bad service I have just given up... I had to install my own ADSL line... NO JOKE! The technician left a spindle of wire at my house and I did my own installation! He returned a week later just to connect the...

    Vodacom support goes all black!

    No, I am not a racist. Never was and never will be. We all inhale the same oxygen; we all bleed red and we all cherish the future of our children. We are all the same. The colour of one's skin means nothing. I am just disappointed; that is all. If they had followed the message with one in...

    Vodacom support goes all black!

    I hope none of you are going to call the Vodacom support line on 082 135 anytime soon... Unless you can speak Zulu or something... Give it a try! I have a voice clip of it, but I am unable to attach it here! I have a question, but I have no idea what are being said! No English, No Afrikaans...

    Network Error 1106

    I honestly do not know what more to do... I have subscribed to Showmax, but I just cannot get it to work on my media player. Not even showmax seem to know, because I have taken it up with them and their official response was that my device is not compatible. I don't believe that as the...

    Why Computicket tickets must be collected from Checkers

    Computicket is not what it used to be... It is often just easier to buy your tickets directly at the venue instead of jumping through all those hoops. I also had a similar experience with Computicket where I figured it would be easier to buy and print the tickets online for a venue at the Coca...

    Best and worst Internet service providers in South Africa

    Is there something like a "good" service provider? I have been checking Hello Peter and the issues people have there are the same, no matter what ISP they choose. I have come to believe that the "good" ISP story is a mith... does not exist! It's more a question about finding the ISP that suits...
