I have a 512 kb line...Any ideas if this is also going to be upgraded, or do you HAVE to upgrade to 1024 to get the 4mb/s speed :(

i doubt they will upgrade 512K ppl to 1024K.. (i think 1024K will just fall away with the 4mbit service's launch)

Yeah, what about the poor 194K -> 384K users. What power speeds they are getting.. yes it's double, but 1024K -> 4094K is four times as fast!

Pings dont change, the SPEED of the ping will be quicker, yes, and data transfer will be faster

512 will be upgraded to 1024. I know it for a fact. Don't know when, but it is going to happen.

Sorry for the delay in proof. I'm not going to mention names or in which section he works, but my father in law who works for telkom told me so. He oversees all the ADSL installations in a specific area. I'm not beating around the bush. He honestly told me that all 512 users will be upgraded to 1mbit as well should the 1mbit to 4mbit upgrade be a success, which in his opinion is pretty much a fact. Happy?
