Hi there.

I see according to the Telkom coverage map we now have FTTH access in Pinehurst: http://www.telkom.co.za/coverage/

I've also confirmed this with some Telkom techies that we can now apply for this service.

I would like to know if anyone on this forum in this area has taken the plunge and started the process. Would love to hear any feedback and which provider you went with.

Considering going this route.
 
Some nice feedback :P

afaik you're limited to the three Telkom contracts (20, 50, 100mbps)

Can someone confirm

Telkom has an open network on it's fibre. There for you luckily use any fibre offering from any ISP :)

Confirmed this today.
 
How are other users finding fibre in Pinehurst.

I am on 10 meg from 4meg ADSL.

Downloads are great. Youtube is nice too.

However, I am finding the quality on Hangouts or BlueJeans to be pretty poor, quite a bit of stuttering
 
Anyone else experiencing any issues on telkom fiber last couple of days?

I cannot steam an entire YouTube clip. It will buffer a bit, and then just stop. A refresh and skipping ahead is the only way to get it to play nice.

Yup. Since Friday. Multiple faults have been logged by various fibre users in the area. Hope they resolve it today.
