Hi there guys,

Come monday, if speeds don't improve for me, I'm cancelling MyWi

What number do I have to fax my cancel letter through to? And how would I follow this up? Because knowing them, they won't even bother to call me...

Hell, my gran on a scooter with a memory stick is faster than Sentech's MyWireless!
 
thanks malec

Izan - I kept my pathetic Mweb connection going while having 128MW - where I live there is no ADSL. At the moment, with MWeb's silly Propell download accelerator, browsing on MWeb beats the **** out of my 128MW browsing, specially international. On download via FTP (that I do quite a lot to my O/s site) I get about 4KB/s on my "NARROWBAND" Mweb connection (my modem connects at 33.6 baud due to crappy telephone lines). On Thursday I was using FTP continiously for 8.5 hours on my "BROADBAND" 128MW and guess what my average throuput for this total was. Yes you are right - 4Kb/s. So no matter how much technospeak you may use and what you lies you dream up, I am not paying R650 p/m for a Broadband service that gives me the exact same service that a crippled (33.6b) Narrowband dialup gives me. I mght be stupid but I'm not a fool, Or am I?
 
getting adsl, clive, there's a topic on this forum somewhere that has exactly what you need on it

Thanks noone. For other people like me that doesn't use this forum as much as you should, the info is here:

Clive, shouldn't you be able to use mweb's proxy, being a subscriber? If they use username&password auth and not your ip for auth then that might just help you a bit.

Just taking a shot in the dark - koffie het nog nie ingeskop nie....

kj - That sounds like a good idea. Do you know what is the mweb's proxy IP address?

Yea well, I'm actually thinking of using Storm's uncapped service, but I'm going to wait a while. Decided to downgrade (force them to downgrade me) from October onwards till I see some improvement. No use forking over 1.5k a month for 200k speeds

hmmmm,.....ALL the users of 512 package are online ALL the time, some are probably just sending keep-alive pings but still getting their full share of the 512 package bw pool (which is quite small, cos there aren't so many users).

....just a thought....
 
wouldn't explain my dead set 14kb/s I'm getting

No bursts whatsoever, even interupted the orc that called me today and wanted to bull**** me re: contention, told him I understand contention, but if I contended for bandwidth, I won't have rock solid speeds of 14kb/s for 2 straight weeks, should have bursted

but yea.. whatever :P

noone,

phone them and tell them to downgrade you immediately, I bet that you'd get better speed with 256. they can pass a credit for the difference....(like they'll get that right [;)])
