Good luck! I'll be the week after. May both of us be lucky. Are you also going for the 5mb?

Yes. We are 3 people right next to each other in the same complex that signed up. Not sure if they'll do all 3 on the same day.

I just don't know if I'm prepared to pay R1500 a month for internet. So I really hope the 5mb will cut it for me. Provided I've got line of sight.

I have had no issues with streaming till the PC upgrade. I guess if you stream to many HD devices at once you're bound to run into trouble somewhere.
5Mbps was fine for streaming normal and HD ready on 3 devices.

I know of a couple of people that use Bitco at my complex. Which makes me feel more positive about getting line of sight. Keep us updated! :)

Thanks for that info Pitbull! I think then it should be fine for me. I also don't download much, except for XBox One games and updates.
 
@Mike @ Garth

It has been very quiet on the BF4/Bitco side ,what's happening guys .....T-minus 1 Day!!!

"Hi Disiza / No-Rules / cal384 & All other Avid BF4 players
I would like to confirm that we acknowledge the problem with BF4 on our network and as described by Disiza previously this is due to the significant change in ports used by EA.
I confirm our core engineers are currently working on the issue and we hope to have it resolved no later than end of next week.
We have had a slight delay this week due to our CEO being overseas on Business, while our CEO is away our core engineers cannot make any major changes to the core network as this forms part of our change control policy.
I can confirm all other services are fully operational. If any users have issues with specific services please can you log this with [email protected] so we can ensure the ports are fully optimized.

Hay guys , does anyone play CS:GO on bitco? I'm really keen on bitco as long as packetloss isn't an issue. I don't download a lot so the FUP doesn't really bother me. Basically just want good ping and no packetloss issues. Thanks guys.

Lol, sorry was focus on the ping first time.

Do you have the IP for that server you connected on?

*love the song*



Damn that sucks. Didn't know that, thought Mweb or someone would host a few again.

IP Address BF4 Xbox One Server 159.153.85.108:30006

Sorry it took so long, they bury the bloody IP!
