So I'm moving into a new place and need to setup adsl and line from scratch...

I'm willing to pay R1500 a month max. I'm gonna go with the R999 Uncapped Express + from Axxess.

So I have R500 for the line rental and all the rest...I saw the figure R413 somewhere...Is that the final cost?

Regards,
Mike
 
Sort of... There is R114 line rental as well. Problem is, Axxess uncapped is throttled, so you won't get 4mpbs. Sorry
 
It's only throttled in the day ..... after 8 it's full speed all the way ;)
 
The R999 package is a 384kbps package with 10 day, 5GB rolling threshold. If you use more than 5GB in days, you get throttled to 192kbps until you're within the rolling threshold again.
 
Yeah sorry currently using it where I'm staying...8am to 7pm it's throttled to 30KB's down max...After 7pm its at full 4MB.

So its R530 for 4MB line rental and adsl rental? Whats the install fee or self install thingy?

Any point in going with afrihost and their R29 per GB deal?
 
I think the support you get from Afrihost is worse than Openweb became but that is my experience.

If you want high volume, go for the Uncapped Express+

I get around 500GB to 600GB per month :D:eek:
 
The Axxess is throttled during 8am-8pm on Week days... from 8PM to 8AM it is full 4mb and the whole weekend!
 
A 4MB line (no data included) costs:
Line rental - R131
Fastest ADSL - R413
TOTAL - R544

No, this is what I am paying:-

Telephone Line - R114.91
DSL Fastest - R362.28
Standard Call Answer - R8.64
Total - R485.83 (R553.85 incl VAT)

I have no data package with Telkom - and no phone either!!! I don't know what the Standard Call Answer charge is for, but I get billed for that too :mad:

You might not have a phone plugged in, but the line is voice enabled and you are paying rent for it.
