Hey guys,

Sooo I'm sure you guys get alot of these, Frogfoot is coming to my George neighborhood. I play League of Legends and my wife loves to Netflix and YouTube on the smart TV, while I play and we of course currently download many series/movies ect, plus updating of games such as Warframe eats into any capped options, so uncapped all the way....

Anyway I've got about an 800 budget, looking at a 20mb uncapped unshaped line option from webafrica, what are your thoughts, best value for money, best deals at the moment for that amount? Also the free router option is of course appealing, but there seems some fine print catches.

TLDR: Which is the best uncapped 20mb fibre package at the moment on Frogfoot (for about R800), taking into account lol ping (EUW server) and free stuff you get, without signing up to a contract. Cheers

I know budget always comes first... but if you can.. maybe rather go for the 50mbit option. If you are like me and have multiple devices (laptop, desktop,tablet,cellphone for you, the wife etc, Maybe a smart-TV or two or maybe AppleTV device or Android linked to TV). Those apps all need updates, new games are now in the 30gig to 60gig range these days to download and updates are in the 3 to 4gig each weekly. If your gaming and doing the netflix or twitch streams, remember your not going to be doing 360p and 480p streams now. Because there is more bandwidth it will jump to 720p or 1080p now by default <cause it see's there is bandwidth>.

Best bet to go for 50mbit if possible, Then you can stream 1 or 2 streams of 1080p, have an odd update kickoff in background by an device at home and still be gaming without getting lag spikes or 500ms ping.
 
Thanks for the feedback guys, much appreciated will consider the various options and ideas!
