FTTH Port Elizabeth

[thewusman]

Well Newton Park looks pretty much dug up installed and covered.

Just a matter of time I reckon.

Hopefully Fernglen and Sunridge are next. The wait is agonising.

Any idea when Providentia or mount pleasant will be getting fibre as all the surrounding areas have fibre?

 

[BeerIsNotGood...]

Any news Cotswold fernglen Sunridge area's?

Newton park as well since its important because exchange...

 

[BeerIsNotGood...]

UPDATE

Important thing is that the newton park exchange be upgraded as well. No point in getting fibre when exchange cant handle the rape...

We need a big fibre backbone aswell

Seriously? I post my own user experience, just like I did when I was with Telkom Internet since dial-up days. Right now I have an issue with speed tests reflecting different results but it has not impacted my service. I have raised it with CW as it would appear to be a peering issue somewhere... am waiting for feedback. see for yourself:

Yep, upload issue has been raised with Openserve for a while already. Fortunately I'm not reliant on it so it does not impact me to the extent that it would others.

100/50
