400TB is not really a cap, it's more of an arbitrary value which was required by the system. I am sure you admit that most users don't hit that mark. If you do exceed 400TB, you won't be cut off from the internet because the link can be adjusted on-demand.

Yah.. it doesn't seem to really update initially as i was curious about this value. I wonder if that includes the cached data though.. i.e. YouTube, Netflix, Showmax data can likely be cached on the network and likely a large % of the traffic served to home users.

i'm sure it does if i have to guess, so not a real reflection on costs unless using ipc.
 
There seems to be a authentication issue so don't drop your pppoe sessions on Openserve as you might not be able to authenticate again. JHB and surrounds.
 
Thanks @AfriFella i am up and running, just a quick question, i am trying to connect to my work vpn but its timing out all the time, when i use my sim it connects to vpn fine, also on my previous isp i had no issues with vpn.

VPN is not blocked on my side at all. Mind providing more details like VPN server or service you are using.

I connect through windows vpn, i even tried Forti Client VPN, i am currently connected to windows vpn on my sim.
Is it ok to show my work vpn server address on here?

Ok i found a fix, on the router settings i enabled IPsec and PPTP passthrough and its working now :)

Probably not a good idea to post it here. Sorry can't assist any further.
 
I'm getting <2Mbps to OneDrive for some reason. Speed tests and general performance is otherwise good. This is disappointing considering some recent uploads went at a rock solid 100Mbps without dipping at all, for the first time ever.

The OneDrive web app is at onedrive.live.com. WinMTR to that address looks like this:
