I am currently suffering from a terrible drop in speed and signal quality ..... :confused:

2 days ago I was singing the praises of CellC and 3G..... and as of yesterday - it's like using "dial-up" and my signal strength has dropped from 7 Bars (on my Billion 3G Router) to only 4 bars. So, I have lost signal and I have also dropped in Speed from 4-7mb down to slower than "dial-up" internet connection...:confused:

I have tested the USB modem directly into my laptop - same strength and speed issues....

Sent an online message to CellC tech support - as I believe that there must be an issue in the area.... but no reply yet.... I just hope it's resolved soon as their service has been brilliant before - hence I bought 3 x 5GB prepaid 12 month cards....

I will keep you updated - or if anyone else in the southern suburbs is having the same issue - then please post.... :confused:

I am just hoping that they are aware of a fault and it's not my USB modem (which I doubt)...:erm:

Table View went off yesterday afternoon - as in dead, no signal. Working OK this morning, although, it drops to 2G ever few minutes.

Yup, they are aware of it. I think it was a big one, people all over Cape Town were affected.

I also lost 3G/HSPA completely yesterday, noticed it when I got home. I was up again this morning, and actually must faster than it has been in months. Will test again when I get home tonight.
