Not when you want to upload some 100 MB...

Now I feel for you..... especially as you can get 2.5 Mbits/s UL on Vodacom......

 

[Stevewarren]

Dont forget you pay 6 times more on vodacom

Phone the tech department ask them to update your settings on your modem... worth a try?

What do you mean modem settings?

 

[maximum_ian]

What do you mean modem settings?

The tech are able to check and update your modem settings on there side, i was saying that perhaps this may help? But you must push them to provide a roll out of coverage in your area any how...
