anybody know to to check what max lines peed you can get on a billion 5200GR4?
 
Let's start that rumour and force Telkom to dismiss it. Might be fun :)

Been trying that since these 'rumours' started. MyADSL has been slow though- in almost every article on the 10meg subject, the lower accounts are left out. No hard questions for Telkom- just toeing the line as far as I can see.

MNOs are launching 21meg speeds, yet here we are with our "fast" 384k ADSL :sick: WTF?

Upgrade to 1024/4096, problem solved case closed.
 
My exchange still says G.DMT soooo... is it still possible that they will turn on the ADSL2+ equipment this weekend? :D

Many exchanges are not even enabled for those speeds. Some of us wish we could upgrade, but my exchange for example only supports speed of up to 512k.

Same here. I'm in Wilro Park/Helderkruin (011-768-xxxx) and my exchange is still G.DMT. I've never experienced problems with high latency etc so I assume the exchange is Metro Ethernet enabled or has no other backhaul problems, and they just need to put in an ADSL2+ DSLAM... at least I hope its that simple xD
 
i'm in PMB and also on G.DMT quite close to exchange and get good latency but doubt i'll get 10 meg in PMB soon or ever

and thats exactly what telkom wants us to do. and i will not. am gonna stay here on my 384 until telkom is so embarrassed that they upgrade us. they upgraded the 1mbps to 4, now to 10. come on!

Some of the City centre exchanges are 10MB capable - Hayfields and Pelham seems to be a problem but I think they will be upgraded soon...
 
So let me get this straight. If my router says my exchange is "G.DMT" then ADSL2+ DSLAM will work? And thus 10mbps will work?
