Hey everyone,
I have had this problem, since I have got broadband with Telkom.

This has dramaticlly changed my online experience!
I can't even log into websites without getting logged out 30 secs later!
I have never been able to download 1 single file from rapidshare!!
I have never been able to stay in my ACP on my phpbb forum!

whats wrong???
Yes, I have posted this all over the web, incl Yahoo answers, and others

The only replies were

"Switch to Firefox, it is way better than IE"
I am already using it!

"There must be a problem with your DHCP server. contact me for more details"

I have contacted him, and It still hasn't worked!

I have a premium combo modem (search for it on marconi.co.za)
which connects to 10.0.0.2

I am using a RFC Routed connection.
I have updated the software on the modem like a week ago.
I have no Idea it doesn't work!
what can I do????
please help!
 
I am actually Not Suprised! I have phoned them asking the same question as above. Their answer "Let me forward you to ___ department" what now? 1 hour of waiting on the phone line, 57 minutes waiting, spoke to 6 people, saying "Let me forward you to ___ department" or they go "huh?" lol telkom has given me so much misery! I promise you, I have had the WORST experience with hellkom ever!!!

are you sure it's not some freaky software problem or a virus? That sounds too odd for Telscum to even know how to implement.
 
Rapidshare failing is normal....the Telkom transparent cache does that.

Try setting a proxy...or if you have one set, then remove it. Google this forum for the proxy info.
 
is your local IP on your computer changing or your wan ip? Could be that you running through proxy servers and they interchange the whole time. eg open one page and it goes through ip address: 196.2.56.35 and open the next page and it goes through 196.2.56.36?

I could be totally wrong though.

If its ur local ip address, why not just change so you have a static IP address on your local network?
 
"IP changes after every page load/refresh"? Sounds like the transparent saix proxy. It does exactly that. Can you stay logged into this forum for longer than 30 seconds? If yes, then it is definitely the SAIX proxy. This forum uses cookies to track you and not your IP as eg rapidshare does. Afaik there is not really much you can do about it.
 
I can stay logged in, yes, but thats because I have a cookie (login info) stored on this pc
But I have never downloaded a single file from rapidshare! or depositfiles!

Megaupload seems fine, but sometimes it says "another IP has requested this session" or something like that, and I had to pick my IP from the list.
Mediafire.com works the best

That is kinda normal. Everyone from SA using SAIX lands on the rapidshare page with the "same IP". Have you tried rapishare recently? They changed their system a bit... I must still give their new system a try aswell.
 
Use a proxy to browse the sites that give you grief.

cache.saix.co.za on port 8080 is an example.

It should help you with most sites, but I dunno about Rapidshare.

yes, I have tried Rapidshare, since they changed their design, over 30 times.
I am so tired of this, because it redirects me to the page "download error You have requested this session with a different IP"


I have went on my friends pc,and that worked easily! It must be something wrong with my modem, because I had his connection on my pc
 
I guarantee the pool of transparent local proxies is the problem. I also guarantee that setting a proxy explicitly in your browser, like the one general_koffie mentioned, will solve the problem ... for some sites. I haven't tried every site in the web, so it might not work for all!
 
I have actually used Proxies before, and is seems to have not helped at all. I have used a free programs that "hide your ip" but It also hasn't worked
