iBurst signal - Little Falls area

[R_C]

Hiya, does anybody know what the signal quality is in the Little Falls area? I'm investigating iBurst as an alternative to Hellkom's ADSL........

Where I stay I look out on the sign on the mountain that says "Little Falls"and so far the signal has been VERY good 5/5 lights and I have not been cut off once. Speeds are berry berry good.

EDIT: PS, keeping in mind I have only had it since 07.10.05...Oops

I'm in Little Falls... I have to reposition my antenna every couple of days to get decent signal. One day 5 LEDS, next day 1. It wasn't always like this, pre-launch, things were awesome. Tonight was the first time in months I hit 1MB and I see my antenna is due to be moved again for the 2nd time today iBurst keeps me fit!

Weird how I have no problem. My modem even falls onto the ground and I leave it there and no problem.

Xenophon, what tower do you connect to? I can't see the Roodekrans one so I am stuck with Northcliff.

If you tell me how I check which tower I connect to I will check for you tonight and let you know.
