Never mind 4Mb, my 384kb connection has been awful as well.
Feels like 56k when browsing.

I am sitting on the fence and am not going to "upgrade" until such time as the service provided by Telkom is free of obvious network issues.
I do not download much, so for me to pay extra money for a "faster" connection is not necessary, considering that it may not be all it's supposed to be.

Telkom may be "upgrading" people, but probably just to capture more market share for itself.
That is their way. Money first, service last.
 
well I am glad to hear it is not just me whith this problem as it is so hard to identify sometimes whether it is just my line or some widescale thing! Shot for the input!
 
If you have a look on the SAIX faults page: www.noticeboard.saix.net l/p: admin

There seems to be almost 2 to 3 faults everyday this month... Wonder if the network cannot handle the 4mbit'ers or everything just decided to break all at once...
