DSL line speed increases - when?

[gregmcc]

There's been rumours on the forum for a while now about 384 going up to 512 and 512 going up to a meg. Everyone thought it was going to happen on the 1st Aug but no go

Anyone want to wager a bet that it will happen tomorrow? 1st Sept

(There's nothing like positive thinking)

I say we start to see posts here of people syncing @ upto 8096kbps (8MB). Was it not 2years ago that 4MB came out???

I am all for positive thinking

There were also rumours earlier this year on the forum that Telkom would drop the price of ADSL in August and that bandwidth caps would increase. Instead the actual cost of ADSL has risen and we still have the same bandwidth caps.

I reckon they'll upgrade members of the Porcine Air Service first, then the rest of us

well looking at telkom adsl line + line rental + the amount of bandwidth i buy , the neotel unlimited prime does not look that bad but i have no coverage
