500 GB

Personally I've never experienced such. Maybe when I conected 4 devices same time, all dowloading.
I've been downloading/uploading for 3 weeks straight now, 7 hours a day. I'd be wary of putting my phone through that. Don't get me wrong, by some of your guys' evidence phones seem pretty capable of handling these workloads. I just wouldn't do that to mines' unless I had to.

Did Telkom reduce the downloading speed, since Wednesday or Thursday I noticed slow downloading speed.
 
I'm officially bored and tired of this. All my hard drive spaces have been filled with the best movies of the year so far. Also I've got myself a great collection of series to watch some time in the future. I have around 150GB left and a week to go.

Plan is to leave my TV, tablet and smartphones streaming (autoplay) YouTube videos with ads enabled from midnight till 7am. My way of saying thank you to my favourite content creators (I normally watch with ad block). Volume will be at minimum levels and I'll be asleep the whole time. I'll be damned if I let all that data expire!

Not on my end. Still getting around 15Mbps down on LTE. That's ok, because I'm right on the edge of their coverage map.
 
Good morning

So I downgrade my dstv package to the R99 package. I'm watching all my favourite soaps/drama on YouTube now. But I would like to download them from YouTube, so I can watch them at my own time.

But I can't seem to fine an app that would allow me to download videos straight from YouTube. Maybe someone can suggest the best app that I can use.

Google Chrome add in extension: Video Downloader professional

Or just put ss before "youtube" in the url of any video - ignore the free offers - download button show available resolution to download
 
Shocked face

I only burnt through 200gb, with 6 days remaining

last time I topped up and used I got to 136GB
and literally left 3 PC's on and torrenting at the same time all through a cellphone connected as a modem.

might have gotten higher if it was a LTE phone.

Can anyone assist with how you buy this online as i dont see it via onnet or the app, i have to call them everytime to get the 500GB package. I have got the Uncapped LTE package so in case that helps.

With LTE Uncapped, the only way to get the 500GB nightsurfer is to call in. onnet, USSD, App and livechat have all proved fruitless for me.

I got tired of calling in every month and just plugged a 3G B660 router into my network at home (I had one lying around) and now just change my server's gateway to the B660 at night for downloading. I have a prepaid sim in the B660 and onnet, USSD or App all offer me the 500GB for instant purchase
