In need of good ADSL 20mbps

[Faziki]

Hello guys,

I'm in need of good ADSL 20 Mbps that also has a good upload speed

I'm currently on the LTE train but I'm moving to an area that doesn't have the Telkom LTE uncapped coverage.

Im looking for something in this line (My knowledge about ADSL is a tad scary nowadays)

5 + - Upload (average)
up to 20 Mbps download
Minimal FUP's
and in a good affordable ballpark range ( R 800 - R 1400)
Month to Month

Also, I need a router for this, any recommendations?

Any feedback will be appreciated...

Thanks in advance
Faz

You will get a maximum of 2Mbps on VDSL 20Mbps. DSL is asynchronous by nature and your upload bandwidth is low because of this. You would need to look at an alternative broadband solution to get a higher upload speed.

Problem is, that I only have the choice of ADSL for now... they are planning Fiber for the area but it's going to take a few months before its live

So then im stuck with Vodacom prepaid data (R150 for 1 gig)
Or VDSL 2 mbps upload.... I think ill stick with what I can get with the VDSL upload.

Hi Faziki, first you’ll have to find out what’s available in White River. Hopefully you won’t be staying too far from the exchange, not more than 2 km, the resistance in the copper telephone wire kills the ADSL signal. 3 km away from the exchange might not work.

For starters, try the Telkom coverage map: https://secure.telkom.co.za/today/ucm/
Enlarge the map and click on your exact location, your exact street address, that you'll have in White River.
