Adsl Checker has been updated

Tried about 10 times.

Different times as well.

No luck.

When it previously worked!

//Sigh - Telscum!
 
"ADSL availability and maximum speed supported by your exchange cannot be determined at this stage. For residential services please contact the call centre on 10210, for business services please contact the call centre on 10217."

Got that on the old site, still getting that now. If I look on the "Interest Register" map that shows FTTH/VDSL/No progress, my area sadly isn't even coloured in red for "on your mark".
 
When I use my number:
"ADSL availability and maximum speed supported by your exchange cannot be determined at this stage. For residential services please contact the call centre on 10210, for business services please contact the call centre on 10217."

When I check by address:
ADSL Availability
Service Not Available
Maximum speed available in your area 10Mbps (Copper)
Click to expand...

Yesterday it showed max speed 20Mbps.

Currently on 2Mbps
 
My line stats haven't changed (syncing at 2mb) but the adsl checker says I should be able to get 20. I was waiting for my stats to improve before upgrading - am I wrong?

If you say no to do you have an existing landline, you get the option to enter an address, that will give the max speed in your area. Existing landline option also doesn't work for me.

Tried that, clicked around the neighbourhood on different addresses. No dice.

Further afield in a neighbouring suburb I could get speeds quoted.
 
Not working for me.

This site tells me it doesn't know what is going on with my area.

That said...

Checking that page again, it has been updated alledgedly my area is going to get 20/40Mbps VDSL enabled in the next 3-6 months! That makes me very happy indeed!!

Tho I am right on the border of the blue mark, so I am guessing 20Mbps max for me most probably.

So nice to be given hope. I had hope back in April or so when they installed a new white cabinet in the area from the old style blue one, and the first hop pings dropped from a minimum of 17ms down to 9ms. But then no option of upgrading from 4Mbps was given, and congestion remained so I fear the regional budget was spent installing the box and no money was left for backhaul. :(

EDIT: no it was upgraded May 2013, time flies when your exchange is congested and waiting for Telkom

At least there is a box!

I only have some blue covered overlay on a map on the interwebs...which could mean nothing, if anything at all.
Will see what it looks like end of March 2015.

Get the same :(
 
it says max speed in my area is 10Mbps yet the broadbandstats.co.za/exchange/twvy site says Waverley's exchange is max 4Mbps... so who do I believe?
 
The checker now works for my number, and confirms what I already knew. 10Mbps max speed over copper.
