Is it possible to use my telkom adsl account on another telephone line. My line been down all month and would like to use my cap an someone elses adsl line. Is this possible?
 
ye they already use ADSL, so I guess i just enter my username and pass into their router then I surf with my bandwidth and dont use theirs.
 
you got it buddy

put username and psw in router and Bobs your uncle ;)
 
cool thanks. Cant beleive a telkom technician arrived to fix my line today...but I wasn't home. Told him to come at 8am in the morning. But i reckon he wont pitch up.
 
dude they do that all the time better to take a day off work when the installation date comes
 
Telkom guy arrived this morning. Phone now working. ADSL not sure tho, green luight on router now turns on which means ADSL is being picked up by router but couldnt connect to net. I entered username and password into router and thats all. Using Netgear DG384uk router. Are there other settings I must set?

Try going to www.telkom.co.za/verifyadsl and following the instructions. It should work with your ISP username/password otherwise I'll need to go digging for the Telkom guest account details...
