    Anyone here know what's involved in upgrading a standard DSL 10mb line to 20mb? I upgraded to a 20mb premium with mweb and ordered the telkom line upgrade on monday a.m. They told me it would take 24-48 hours. I called back on Wednesday and they told me it takes 24-72 hours. Today they say it...

    Hey all, It's that time of year when I get to upgrade again. Currently I have a GS4 i9500 (was a GS3 then I got mugged) on a Vodacom TopUp 315s with R315 airtime and 250MB data @ R499pm inc phone. So I considered carrying on down the Samsung path but am becoming slightly disillusioned with...

    My ADSL speed upgrade late?

    Hi There, My line is still running at 1Mb/s and has not been shifted to 2Mb/s. I am a bit surprised since a friend of mine who stays in same complex as me in East London HAS been upgraded to 2Mb/s. Yet I have not. But now I read the below link that the upgrades are planned to be finished on...

    Dropped call when asking for upgrade.....

    Hi Guys I was wondering what happens when you upgrade prematurely on a contract for Vodacom ? I attempted to phone their offices but i kept getting my calls dropped! Does it work as a set amount for every month that it is early or some other calculation? Lastly if the phone is then not...

    VDSL available after Telkom downtime!

    During troubleshooting to get my customers back up after this recent outage I noticed that almost 80% of my customers in Johannesburg and Pretoria can now get VDSL 20Mbps and some 40Mbps! So it wasn't an outage per se but rather a botched upgrade. I can check if you are upgraded via Uniweb (PM...

    4/10Mbit Users: Will you upgrade to 20/40Mbit VDSL?

    Telkom has almost completed their work in my area, while I don't know if they'll be offering VDSL in my area off the bat I am very tempted to upgrade to a 20Mbit line considering the increased cost is minimal on the line itself. Only issue I would have is getting an uncapped account to support...

    How do I know when my line has been upgraded by Telkom?

    I am currently on the all inclusive 1Mbps uncapped MWEB account. I am craving more speed and hence want to jump on the 2Mbps account as soon as my line is upgraded, but not before, as I don't want to pay for a 2Mbps account and not get the extra speed. So my question is, how do I know when...
