Hi, As you can see by my status called MEMBER im basically new to the site
i need help ? im sure there is a thread out there about this but i have searched and cannot find

I have a 512 line getting CAP from webafrica (very good ISP ) i use the ADSL
for online PS3 so i need an unshaped account

Question : is there somewhere i can go to get like 10GB unshaped INT and 10 LOCAL ??? or some package where ill be saving ?? currently paying 125 per GIG unshaped

and dudes its expensive after your 5th GIG :(
 
Why do you specifically want unshaped? What do you use it for?

is the gaming so bad with a shaped account?

all unshaped accounts are expensive (axxess.co.za is R119/gb) i am pretty sure there is not much you can do on the ps3 if you only have local left.

yeah true, as all servers are located overseas i find it difficult to get online locally unshaped is used because of the traffic allowance as i was told

is there no packages for unshaped accounts ??
 
Your other options are:

- Semi-shaped? Semi shaped is unshaped after hours and on weekends, and is a bit cheaper.

- A proxy provider? A proxy provider is a company that allows you to connect to their local machine using your local bandwidth to get to their machine, and then they route your traffic to the game machine overseas on their own line which is a line that does not shape the gaming protocols. However, you'd need to carefully check which games they support.

But, you should only use the unshaped account for your PS3 gaming.
Get a normal shaped account for all other internet and swap between the two manually as needed.
