Got to agree with the above. Only way to have decent net experience.

and today I was getting 50k/s since 11:00 this morning and then at 5pm it magically sped up to 400k, now what does that tell you, I hear the faint calls of over subscription from the peanut gallery, damm business users.

In Durban and it is pathetic.

Problem for me is that SIAX does not seem much better. This reminds me of the dial up days

IS really needs to sort their sh*t out, downloading off international news server, would normally be maxing out my 4mbit, getting max 100kb/s! BS!!!!

*EDIT: make that max 60kb/s

Internation is painfully slow. Its getting to the stage where you note the good days rather than the bad days on IS.
