Afrihost airmobile (legacy sim) battery draining

[Afrigirl]

Can this also be an issue if I have an Afrihost Telkom sim ?

Hi.

It should not be an issue on an LTE SIM.

Still fine on my side

Busy getting it sorted as we speak. Thanks for the heads up

Good luck after almost 10 years it'll never be fully fixed https://mybroadband.co.za/forum/threads/afrihost-apn-high-battery-drain-explained-not-solved.985927/

Only if you use the unrestricted APN

Not sure what that is, but my apn says "internet"

It won’t be an issue then as that apn implements CGNAT.

I thought this was nonsense until I used an e-sim on a different network for a while. Eish!

Hi All. Checking, we has an emergency change last night on one of our CPT NAT boxes. It may have caused some clients to lose their NAT IPs. We apologise for thr inconvenience.

Why is this so hard to fix, 3 months later and the problem is still ongoing??
