BitCo Consumer Review

With all this talk about radio interference affecting your Bitco connection's performance I don't know if I should be worried about a new MTN tower that is busy being erected not in my LOS but between me and the Bitco tower.

Does cellphone towers contribute to interference with Bitco's link?

Do they run on the same frequency? No.

Hi Goobie,

A GSM tower will not affect or interfere with our Home Broadband Product.

Nothing to worry about :-)

Guys, YouTube is buffering on a 10meg link what the hell?

Experiencing the same today with my 5MB line @ Centurion area.

Downlink is: 300kbps ~ 4000kbps, very unstable. :(
Uplink is normal.

Give it sometime, surely it will resolve later. High volume traffic again.

I have tried Bitlord 2 weeks ago and it didn't even load at all. I haven't tried since I assumed it's servers might be down. I'll check tonight, as I have something I want to torrent :o Will update accordingly.
 
Can someone explain to my why I keep on being throttled after only 30 minutes?

Most downloads I do should finish in less than 1 hour, but I keep on hitting FUP at 30 minutes which causes my downloads to take over 2 hours to complete.

Started my Windows 10 download at 09:07, then hit FUP at 09:37. Also its been sitting at 2mb for over 90 minutes with no sign of returning back to full speed.

This is ****! Like really I cant deal with this any longer.

From what router do you get a plot like this? Me wants!

From the Tomato firmware running on the Linksys router supplied by BitCo.

Just login to your router and under the Bandwidth tab got to Last 24 Hours
 
Good Day Peeps

*sigh*........So my installation is happening tomorrow. And now after reading these 282 pages, I'm stressing my @ss off! I really hope this is my answer to Telkom( I'll burn their offices to the ground, I just need a driver for the getaway :P).

The techs were here on monday for an LOS check, got on the roof, done.....no problem. Yesterday tjoon they can do the installation, everything is sharp. Get on the roof and it starts going quiet. They come down, installation is on halt, he needs to leave. (I understand this, ***** happens, so no worries there). But then I get an email saying there was a technical difficulty and the signal is not up to par, and they need to allign a high site. Couldn't they pick that up on Monday? Anyway, so this should be sorted know, since I got another email arranging a time for tomorrow. So far a shaky start, but I got high hopes.

BUT, I also must say, the techs are really friendly and always kept me in the loop, 10/10 for the techs.
