Just checked a telkom uncapped package that states 1 concurrent session. I have a different package at the moment with my line going into a wifi router which sends the wifi signal to my pc,tv,playstaion,phones and stuff. I don't use ethernet cable just wifi recievers/devices. Will all that count has multiple concurrent session? I have no idea what this means and not technical in this stuff.
 
No, the devices are all attached to a single DSL line, and concurrent connections are determined by how many DSL lines are connected to the account at the same time.

As ISPs we cannot see your local network devices - we only see the device terminating the connection (actually we theoretically only see the tel number, not the device) which in your case is your DSL modem/router which is connected to a single DSL line. If you had 2 x DSL lines connected at the same time it would be 2 concurrent connections, however multiple devices on a single line is still a single concurrent connection...

Thank you so much. I got so worried thinking i wont be able to use multiple devices on my uncapped package.
 
So basically they mean you can't pay for one account and use it at two properties at the same time.
