Will find out tomorrow or Monday. Give me an approximate area or PM more details. That is one huge area...Do you perhaps know if Lorraine/Charlo is on the cards any time soon?
Cheers Mickey
Lorraine, between Tarbes and Centenary

Pretty sure hey
If I check telkom coverage its connecting the townhouses close by to the mill park area
Runs down the golf course road all the way to Mowbray to the white telkom box.
Is there a way to tell like with pipe colour or something?

Does not make sense. Mill Park and golf course works off Parsons Hill exchange.
Townhouses work to Newton Park exchange.

Grief just confirming its probably that useless MTN that dug up my street. Typical the most expensive guys will be the first.
So close yet so far Telkom

Do you know if the map is updated after set intervals of time or after each update?

In theory it is the day after the installation has been signed off by all local role players, the new network has been properly integrated into the network and the HO team at the NNOC has confirmed that it is all OK on all systems.

Ok cool, I understand, thanks.
Any idea why when FTTH is already planned for some areas (and they are busy with installation) but is never shown as planned on the coverage map, and is then only updated to available FTTH once done?

Probably happens when complexes are done.

You guys seen these prices for MTN FTTH? http://www.firestream.co.za/pricing-ftth-mtn.html :wtf:
Trying to confirm with these guys if they offer it via MTN FTTH in PE too

I saw that today as well. Can only imagine the catch to uncapped.
Thinking along the lines of a 10gb FUP or something knowing MTN.

I'm interested too. Have you messaged them to ask about any small print?
I don't see any specific usage limit in the AUP. It is very suspicious though considering how terrible MTN's prices are.
