8ta Internet 5 Promo and LTE ?

[Brunette Babe]

I have the 8ta internet 5 promo contract (10gb per month) and I'm based in an LTE coverage area.
If I purchase an LTE modem will the internet 5 promo sim allow me to access the 8ta LTE network ?

I have spoken to the 8ta/Telkom Mobile call centre and to personnel at a Telkom Mobile store, with differing/conflicting answers.

Can the Telkom Mobile rep please clarify this ?

Thank you

Remember that 8ta's LTE is on a different frequency - 2.3GHz. This means that you will need an LTE router which will work on the Telkom Mobile LTE network.

As for the ability to use your 10GB package on that network - no idea

If you find compatible device and doesn't work, try SIM-swap.

Tried my Internet 5 Promo sim in a Huawei E5776 LTE router yesterday, and I'm able to access the 8ta/Telkom Mobile LTE network
Getting D/L speeds of around 20Mbps.
