ADSL/DSL providers and packages?

[Donovan]

I know this is more for the ADSL forum, but I'm posting it here because I think it will be useful for those of us on iBurst that are probably going to move over.

I've given up on iBurst - so now I'm just using them while I search for other (better) options. I'm looking for something along the lines of ADSL or DSL (aren't they the same?). Can anyone suggest a good provider and package to more or less meet what I have now (except it would actually work, of course)?

At the moment I've got the package with a 2.5GB cap... I think it's Pro Ultra Mega Extreme Novice Dude ULTRA or something. They can't even name their products properly.

DSL is not available in this country, only ADSL. Sometimes it's referred to as DSL though. Have a look at what www.openweb.co.za has to offer. When I move to ADSL, they'll be my ISP.

Guys I have just moved and am with Openweb. So far they are great. I had some issues and e mailed Mrbeep, who by the way is the CEO and he replied late at night and was great. I really recommend them.

Telkom is still your best option at present, but you could try Cybersmart.

Cybersmart, an ISP which has opted to charge for bandwidth according to access speed, offers a 3 GB top-up account to their DSL 384 subscribers at R 189.00 per month

That's not too bad... should work out to be about R452.90 with the line rentals included.
