I thought this should be in its own tread, and please John this is not intended as a flame.

Why on earth don't you people just set up a 5.8ghz parabolic
on www.is.co.za peering point for direct connection to the
Internet?
Complaining about adsl is useless.

Hi John, welcome to the forum, I see that you have been with us for a year now but this is the first time I have replied to one of your posts. [:I]
If you have set up a 5.8ghz parabolic, I would be keen to know the costs and technical details of the instillation. If, however, you are proposing that MyADSL become a pirate service provider to its membership base I think you have misjudged the forums intent.
I realise that, on first viewing, this forum looks as if it is a place to Bitch about Telkom and look for alternative solutions, legal or otherwise, often to the exclusion of other users.
To an extent, it is true that we come here to blow of steam.
But the real reason for MyADSL is to benefit South African Internet users as a whole, through information and by pushing for service improvements via any available legal channel, including ICASA and the Press.
It was set up by RPM and is run by several individuals, at their own expense, for the common good.
Yes this Forum amazes me too, because it shows that there are people out there who care enough to work for changes, within the law, and with no desire for personal gain.
Take a look at http://www.myadsl.co.za/about.htm
Thanks RPM and the TEAM, keep it up.
Cheers
Chris
