[AfriGuy]

This is what I get from Afrihost: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2961132117 . (At Home the resuslts are similar) I am very pleased with this results. Before I had to use CellC: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2911582253 (At Work) and http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/2860863592 (at Home)

Thanks Afrihost!

MTN speedtest in Bellville South....terrible
Would like to sign-up for the 10GB Afrihost deal but hell if this is the speed on the MTN network it would be useless

Are you not getting any improvements if you move around the house, or in completely different locations?

Yeah, location is a huge factor. At home you might be the only MTN subscriber - in a CBD there could be kazillions. Even though there may be better coverage, but the demand makes it harder to get the same speeds you do at home.

Work and home is in La Lucia, so chances are there are a lot of people on MTN here

Still waiting for LTE to be enabled on my Afrihost nano sim, tried last night and still can't log onto the LTE network. Hopefully this week that will happen, you said in the PM it probably won't happen over the weekend.

As soon as I get confirmation, I'll let you know

Get 10MB/s on the MiFi device at home. Get 6MB/s on my HTC One X using the APN choice. Was getting 0.8MB/s with my old provider. Very happy.

Don't have any need for a SIM-Only solution, but Afrihost has my business for the foreseeable future via the APN offering - smart move to offer that as well.

And it is on 3G with 3 bars showing.
