The subject said they are selling it for R269!! Thats hectic!! Wish it was for a whole month though.

what happens if you have a 384 k line would it still run at 4096 lol........ i am playing .....

i have used it before it was okay i guess.

So... it's a 4meg line off hours and a 128k line on-peak for R269? That seems pretty decent. Does it come with a modem? Is line-rental seperate? If it is seperate, do you pay more because it's 4mb?

It's a IS Express Uncapped account. The account will run at a max of 4096 after hours provided your line is capable of those speeds. This doesn't include line rental or the modem, it is just a DSL account.

It's also only from now till the end of the month. It's not a constant thing.

Well it does say "our month end special. " They actually run quite a lot of these once-off special account deals..

 

[milomak]

it seems it was a once-off special for the same package Axxess calls Axxess Express Uncapped (+)

Not really. A few of us at work chipped in and got one of these to run 24/7 on our 4mbit line. We pulled like 11gb overnight and then ran out of hard drive space
Good value for money.

em just waiting for username and password, made payment yesterday.

Normally I am able to do roughly about 50gb's over a weekend, but I am going to try and see how much more I am able to get from this evening until thursday.

I have a 1.5tb all ready and set to go.
