    Poor reception on Telkom mobile

    Hello everyone, I've bought a Telkom prepaid sim about a year ago and ever since I've had it I've been experiencing poor reception/signal and as a result, unstable internet. I had planned to use this sim for casual mobile gaming but that is not viable due to said poor reception. I would be...

    How many FNO's are you covered by?

    I see that at a family member's place in Richards Bay, Frogfoot first rolled out in 2019 and went live beginning of 2020. Shortly followed by Vodacom Fibre. Looks like Openserve wants a piece of the pie now 2021. They are using existing copper ducts pulling fibre and installing bb's I feel...

    Bad network coverage / bad speed

    Anyone with a Vodacom 4g internet modem that's struggles with bad speed and bad coverage? And do you also get bad excuses regarding towers in anyway when you complain?

    Mtn or cell c coverage issues?

    Hi Anyone have mtn or cell c (as cell c uses mtn more these days as a roaming partner) network coverage issues in welkom or the free state or anywhere else? I only get "emergency calls only". I also tested my sim cards in a different phone. Not normal the reception.

    Rain 4G coverage in Reebok, WC?

    Hi! This is a long shot, but has anyone tried to use Rain 4G in Reebok in the Western Cape (close to Klein Brak, close-ish to Mosselbaai)? I'd like to take a trip there, but only if I can work during the day, for which I need the interwebs. I have a Rain 4G thingy that I can use if there is...

    Fibre providers - Parklands

    Does anyone know which fibre providers are active in Thetford Road, Parklands? My body corporate is refusing to work with Frogfoot for some reason and Octotel says that this road falls outside of their network.

    La Mercy (KZN) - Rain mobile LTE coverage

    Are there any people on here that live in La Mercy and make use of the RAIN LTE network? How is your experience? The coverage map shows that La Mercy does receive coverage but I want to hear real user experiences too.

    False Fibre coverage advertising

    I see on a lot of ISP websites advertise there is Fibre coverage but then it is not true. ISP,s and OPENServe must change it to say no coverage. The only reason why they say coverage is so that you can send your contact details to them. This is totally a lie, you either have coverage or you...

    Coverage: Rain Mobile vs Rain Fixed

    This might be a strange question - but does Rain use the same towers/coverage for their fixed and mobile offers? I have a Rain mobile SIM at home and works great! The Rain website even shows great coverage here at my house. When I look at the coverage for Rain fixed (like on Afrihost or...

    SmartBroadband Wireless - Telkom Network Only or Roaming Too?

    Hi Are the SmartBroadband deals Telkom-network-only, or do they also use the 2G/3G roaming network (MTN?) as well? I'm just trying to establish how much coverage these deals can take advantage of (I move around so specifying a single location to check for a coverage check won't work, I need...

    Where are the places you receive the worst mobile data and/or call coverage?

    Vodacom, MTN, Cell C, and Telkom mobile users - where are the spots where you receive very poor/no signal? For example, when I was on Cell C there was a dead spot along the road running next to Eco Park in Centurion where calls always used to drop.

    DFA optical network in close proximity to my house.

    Hi, I recently noticed that a DFA optical line runs relatively close to my house. Problem is that I don't know which ISP owns that straight of fibre. My understanding is that DFA don't offer internet services. So I'm going to take a guess and say that Vodacom maybe owns it? But I'm still...

    KMZ Coverage Maps

    Heya, Any word on a Google Earth KMZ or AfriGIS map for South African Mobile Operator Coverage? The coverage maps on each providers' websites are good and all, but does anyone know of an "All-in-One" location? Looking at plotting our sites on the maps and activating 3G or HSDPA layers, etc...

    Mtn LTE Coverage

    Something really strange happened this morning - I picked up my phone and noticed I have LTE coverage. This is strange because I live in Estcourt, KZN - a small town. Only major SA places seem to have coverage from my experience; Durban/North Coast, JHB and Cape Town. I'm not complaining - just...

    LTE Speeds in Noordwyk

    Hi I'm interested in that TelkomMobile 60Gb+60Gb bundle. I'm getting 5.68M speedtest using my Huawei 5331 HSPA mifi. Is this TelkomMobile data or all networks? I'm asking cos the test said "Hosted by Cellc" Acacia Street West
