Hi guys I wanted to apply for an openweb 1mb standard account just wondering how much I can pull with this is 100 to 150gig achievable and if it will perform better than 384kbps mweb. Ive heard the openweb standard account are horrible because they throttle the top 20% of user but what are the speeds they throttle you to if you fall in the top 20%? How is streaming and gaming on this line thanks.
 
The Gold accounts are on special. Just take one of them.
 
Wow no one has an openweb standard account?
 
Well I picked up a 1mb standard uncapped account for R169 and I am on the BCS network and its pretty impressive so far. My nephew got the same account for R169 but he is on vodacom network and it seems just as good. Not using it so much this month cause I have 2 uncapped accounts now cause I had to signup with the special and it finished now so lucky I did signup.
 
Well, it is 20:11 at night, I am downloading Windows 8 to give it a try and managing a massive 4.4kbps on a 1Mbps line and only 9 days to go to finish the download. WOW!!!! Now I have to email Keoma and bitch on a public forum so that he can fiddle my account, make it run faster and keep me quiet. After a year, I think I have tried every ISP's uncapped service and I can say that there is no such thing as uncapped. If you use more than a gig a day DON'T GET UNCAPPED!!!!!
 
In case you want to know, I can download at full speed on my 1Gig free Afrihost account, so it is not Telkom, or ports, or source or any other excuse.

Cruising at 13.8kbps now, thank god this is a 1Mbps line and not dial-up. This is twice as fast as dial-up!!!

I've never not been able to max my Telkom 1Mbs uncapped account at night. Had it since October last year, mind you it's not cheap @ R369/mth but worth it
