I don't use the landline so wouldn't know. Last time the Telkom techie was here there was none. I'm being upgraded to a new IMAX just down the road from me though, which I believe will solve the attenuation and SNR, at which point I should be able to connect at 10mbps. Or so I've been lead to believe.
I am downloading at 300KBps now, which I'd never achieved before, so there's been a small increase in speed. Thank you...
Im 100% sure "down the road is better" than 3.9KM away. It will really really improve your stats.
TBH I dont know how your internet is still functioning at those stats.
