Hi all,
I recently moved to Richard's bay and unfortunately cannot get fibre or adsl. I game a lot particularly COD and the like, and as we all know mobile network and NAT do not go well together.
From my research it seems having an unrestricted APN is the only possibility of getting NAT...
Hi Guys...
I'm hoping someone can help me, I have a customer that needs an unrestricted APN enabled on a sim card, We applied on Wednesday by sending the required paperwork.
Yesterday tried testing it and saw it wasn't active, took me 2,5 hours of phones calls and eventually someone knew...
Hi Guys,
Something I have been struggling with for a while now, Telkom representatives keep telling me that Telkom LTE A does not support port forwarding.
Is this really true ? I cannot believe that this size Telco. Company would not support Port Forwarding but others like Vodacom and Cell C...

Hi All
After many many phone calls to the Vodacom call centre and a visit to their customer care centre I am about ready to give up.

This is a direct call to the MyBB 8ta rep to participate in the ongoing discussions about the need for unrestricted APNs.
There have been several discussion on this need and 8ta has not participated in them.
It would appear that 8ta had originally provided the service UNRESTRICTED, but...
Hi
I would please just like to find out is the MTN Uncapped Broadband package allow inbound connections from their external IP address (in other words, is the APN unrestricted)?
Does anybody know?
Thanks!!
After a week of having problems with downloads being corrupted and having major fights with a software company overseas where I purchased some really expensive software, this evening, after yet more corrupted downloads, I decided to try switching back to the Internet APN. Through the Internet...
I'm using the 'unrestricted' APN. Protocol-41 traffic is being dropped by a firewall somewhere on Vodacom's network.
The traffic is not even being properly rejected - just silently dropped. This means my connection is very slow while the connection waits to timeout. :mad:
The History
There are 3 'consumer' APN's available to the Vodacom user base:
internet - NAT'd IP with all incoming ports blocked, i.e. you can connect to any service with no blocking or shaping of any kind, but your PC can't accept incoming connections. This is out-and-out to protect users...
