42 Wireless (New ISP bringing competition to iBurst)

as far as i remember they have been around for a while, more than 2 years, perhaps under a different name?
 
Well guys, I'm not apart of this company.....this is all the info I got, like I said I'm 14 and going to see it soon, Kloon.....when I had iBurst I downloaded at about 800-900kb/s?
Do you call that shaped/unshaped?

"Waiting for http://42wireless.co.za/..."

"Still waiting...."

Dammit "CLOSE"

Site work perfectly for others, as I said its not FULLY operational.

42 Wireless started in January 2004 as a Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP). Since then we began building our infrastructure through setting up High Sites. High Sites are the points where our customers connect to the 42 Wireless network. At this moment the network can provide internet access in the greater Cape Town area. Our goal is to service the whole of South Africa by the end of 2008 to mid 2009.

Kevin is the "guy" I spoke to and he is apart of this company, he said that the company is new. They were still testing, and now they ready.

I try to provide the best info I can and appreciate that you guys are correcting me :D.
 
Well, take it from the big guys on the forum (I don't know much about it), but what I've read is that their are 100's of these WISPS who come and go ;)

Do you call that shaped/unshaped?

Speed dont actualy play a role in shaped / unshaped sure you'll get slower speeds cause the data get shaped, but you'll can clearly see if a line is shaped / unshaped based on the latency.
 
No very good with web design...its a free template taken off the internet. Our website has the same template :)
 
Yeah it is joomla :). Cant login as administrator. Chances are that they have wrong permissions set for the administrator.

Running CPanel on the site as well.
goto 42wireless.co.za/cpanel
and 42wireless.co.za/webmail
 
Website was registered in 2004....so they been working on the site for 4 years?

LoL seems like it, as you can see its not complete, not even near to complete.
I'm not going to get this product for myself, I am pretty sick of Wireless.
Moving houses and already ordered my ADSL
 
42 wireless

Ok i'm new here. I do not have a clue how wi-fi works but i can tell you that i have been a customer of 42 wireless for about 6 months now and although they not the best or cheapest their services is great.

I call they fix. I tried uninet about 2 to 3 years ago they came checked said i have line of site and will be back. Never came back. Then about a year later they install by my friend that llives 100m away and on my next door neighbours place as well.

I call then all of a sudden i don't have line of site anymore go figure. Anyway i contacted 42 wireless , they came and installed simple and they are using the same highsite as uninet and every other wireless company go figure.

I think uninet was probably p****d off at me for reporting them to their union thing.

Yes 42wireless does not always answer their phones but their is only one number 021-9496643 I guess i was lucky and i think they have moved offices as well.

When i first contacted them there were only two now quite a few people. I have the 64k pakage and compared to my friend who has the same, different company, my pages open faster. But anyway this is not a promotion for 42wireless just to say to people that do not have internet access there are others out there that are willing and able to help you get connected. Your choice who you want.

Besides i just got off the cellphone sorting out my connection that went down when eskom decided i used more than 10%. 42wireless called me and spoke me through the settings and other things. Thats all i want anyway service.
