ADSL Needed

[nixforce]

Hi All,

I need some help with getting ADSL, I am looking for an ADSL solution that is cheap.. What is the cheapest uncapped ADSL, I need to know the total pricing ie Modem, Line, Subscription and if capped what cap it is.. Also would no port blocking, as would want to host a few simple sites on a Fedora Box. Im in Durban!

Thanks!

the cheapest dsl available is the 192kbps package(20kB/s download), you can get it on a 24 month contract for 329pm and it includes a free 'decent' modem. It is still 329 a month without the contract but you dont get a free modem. Installation is another R404.

On the ISP side you will pay a lot for a uncapped ISP(+- 700).I wouldnt recomend uncapped because all they do to counter the " no cap" is shape everything so your P2P will run VVVVVVVVVEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRyYYYYY slow.
I would recomend axxess 10Gb for R399 / month, it seems very good

hope this helps

It doesn't matter what speed it is (192k, 384k, 512k)

Really? so R379 for 512K 10GB from Axxxes? What are the other costs pm, line rental? and once of cost for installation as well right? Dam this is actually a lot cheaper than iburst....

 

[viceroy]

Telkom ADSL Line Rental + Telkom Voice Line Rental + ISP = TOTAL cost per month

So in your example

R599 + R80 + R379 = R1058 pm
