    MTN Datashare Changes - 2/11

    The app has been turning off datashare. I share with my brother and he asked me if the data was depleted. He had only used 26GB. The toggle to share data was off, when I turned in on there was a message at the bottom of the screen that only accounts eligible for datashare may share. Then it...

    DStv subscribers get shock Disney+ bill

    It is the second time I cancel. The first time I was in financial dire-straits about 15 years ago. Then things improved financially and after about a year I was back. My family will experience the worst of it but at least we have broadband.

    This is the final straw breaking this camel's back. I have cancelled my DSTV. I will miss it, I will miss the sport but I have had it.

    Replacement batteries for Mecer 2000VA UPS

    I see no one replied but I would like to know if you found answers elsewhere. I am in the same position as you are and I don't have enough knowledge about charging. Meaning if you do find an alternative battery (Lithium/Gel) do you use the same charger that is inside the UPS.

    Mecer 2400VA Inverter (Community Support)

    Is it "Plug and Play" Meaning is it a simple swop out (removing lead batteries and replacing them with Lithium ones), no need to change anything on the 'charging settings' Sorry I do not have the unit so I don't even know if there is a 'charging setting'

    MetroFibre Speed Upgrades ? Anyone actually received an upgrade ? [June 2021]

    Not yet but i guess i will begin to feel the anxiety after i have acquired a 1000mbps wan interface router at the end of the month. For now I am happy with the discount on current speed i have received from (FireStream). I am in Sunninghill.

    Device Descriptor Request Failed USB Port Issue

    Boot a live Ubuntu, if usb is recognised then at least you know it isn't hardware. I had a similar issue with an old notebook and did exactly that. The USB was not recocgnised there either so I gave up because it is really an old notebook.
