Going through webafrica but sjoe their pricing is hectic compared to ZoomFibre with Axxess but not Live as yet. Seems Metro Fibre is also there according to Axxess.

Any Reps from Link Layer on my BB to do something on pricing?

I Set a price filter on LL

You will see specials for Tongaat from isp’s like tech5 etc for R 500 and less..

That's pretty cheap for 50/50.

 

[dev8383]

Probably terms and conditions like that price applies for the first 3 months etc …I have not checked

I did notice tech5 having specials and cheaper prices as compared to other isp’s on the LL network

50/50 @ those prices are very cheap, certainly one needs to read the T&Cs

Not as yet, Still waiting on getting the body corp approval to have fibre installed. Linklayer wont be able to install for me until they have the approvals.

Linklayer told me they need to do an in-building installation as well. Needed to speak to the body corp. Wonder what installation they need to do, not really familiar with the whole fibre installation process.

 

[DuracellBunny]

They should just have 1 junction box being installed on the wall and then just pull and distribute to the houses as needed.

Be very careful to follow the right processes for Body Corporate to install fibre. Our complex didn't follow the right processes and now the matter is at CSOS. FNO blocked from extending his network because he is non-compliant. Trying to get Metrofibre in, instead - way more reputable than Link Layer

Anyone here live as yet?
Speedtests, performance feedback would be much appreciated!
