Wendywood, Sandton. It's not always 25ms, but it is generally good. When playing games, some guys have 10mbit adsl, yet my ping is only a bit slower than theirs...

Cell C is my fastest broadband experience thus far but also the most inconsistent. I think I am rather going to return it. Can't have internet that goes from the fastest to slowest every second night.
But hey, it was good while it lasted.

Also a bit inconsistent though. On the 30th I had some bandwidth to burn so downloaded a torrent at average 750KB/s for a 700MB file so was done in 18min. The night before that it was practically dead even though connected to HSPA+/WCDMA. Was slow just now til I reconnected.

After getting fantastic speeds yesterday and this morning, I lost the 3g signal around 14:30 this afternoon. Still struggling along on that dreaded EDGE!! 
Trying to get hold of the call centre is a joke!!

for now it is acceptable enough.
Having started first with a 2400bps modem, then a 14.4, then a 33.6... then 128k isdn, then 512k adsl and now this...

Can somebody also tell me why speedtest.net picks up that I'm in Durban/Cape Town when doing the speed test whilst I'm in Gauteng?
Just weird.
With Afrihost it's more accurate.

Mine is -83dBm so less signal, but i guess less load on the tower than you.
When my RSSI was in the -90 dBm range i couldn't get over 3Mb/s so i reckon anything under -90 dBm seems to make a big differrance.
I can usually get higher 7's on the download side now but have antenna. Also did distance check today & are only 1.6km from the tower & needed an antenna as without it i was in the 100+ range & unable to even get it to log on.
