Hi guys

Just letting you know that I had a WISP called "KAB Technologies" install at my house today. I see there isn't a lot of forum news about them so ya, will see how there services go.

I took a 4mbps / 100GB package with them. Will test and let you guys know

They are in Milnerton Cape Town.

They also offer 10Mbps capped packages for under R900 and uncapped 10Mbps for just over R1000.
 
so initial results are looking pretty awesome actually. Last night was downloading at almost 500kb/s ....consistently.

After a few tests I saw ping went as high as 113ms, but other than that......super lower ping.

I do have a bigger diameter dish (which they recommended) since I was a bit further away to the tower......than normal.

Oh well, so far.......so good (actually already considering upping my line speed to 10Mbps, for R160 more)

Please keep us updated. As I might be moving over to them.
 
will do gents. Ill do a month by month update so expect some test etc again mid July

HOPEFULLY things remain stable (praying)
 
If it's only R160 to go from 4mbps to 10mbps, I would say you have no other choice than upgrading! :D
 
lol true words. I actually see its R150 difference:

R660 / 4mbps capped
R810 / 10Mbps capped
 
3.*** *Consumer 10mbps, 100gig + 100gig FREE (200 Gig total anytime bundle)** | R1099 ex VAT.This is a 1:1 contention
2.**** *Consumer 10mbps, 50gig *+ 50gig FREE ( 100 gig total anytime bundle ) *| R 710 ex VAT
 
yea 10Mbps capped is @ 100GBs. 4mbps package is @ 80GBs.

So essentially.....R150 more for extra 6mbps + 20Gbs of data

Would've loved to go for their uncapped 20Mbps........but that is R2000 per month.
 
The admin is neurotic about pings, not just from a gamer lag perspective, but any latency. Which is a good thing for users.
 
well that is awesome to hear :)

So far my connection can vouch for that, with stable pings as low as 11ms

Also, my wife downloaded a file quickly this morning (1.5GB) and again......download speeds were never below 380Kbps and constantly hitting 500Kbps (I saw a few 504 and 503kbps in there as well). So ya........admin keep up the good work

I assume you know the Admin?
 
lol, so far super happy with the 4mbps line. I'll give it a few more months before considering 10mbps. I've reverted back to DSTV and downloading torrents, so I'm happy. Good news is that my download speeds is constantly hitting 500kb/s so ya.......chuffed
 
Just a quick update guys: after another 6 months of KAB tech wireless internet....I am happy to report that the service is still SUPER SMOOTH. NO glitches, no downtime, no throttling, no nothing. Just pure fast speed and no issues. Still pretty much downloading at over 400Kb per second. Streaming is perfect and ping times are low (nothing more than 15ms).
