@lantic R59 uncapped 'bolt-on' feedback

[Julian2]

Indeed.

You could sign up for the Bolt On alone for R59 in the past. That has since been stopped.

The new product is FatPipe Light + Bolt On for R148 as you posted.

Thanks for the clarification. That's a relief.

So any issues currently? Going half speed on nntp. New place so trying to eliminate possible causes.

So when I signup of the Fatpipe-Lite, where do I add the bolt-on?

As sand_man said.
This link: https://www.voxtelecom.co.za/uncapped-bolton
then this link to ask Vox to call you back. https://www.voxtelecom.co.za/sales-lead?product=ADSL-Uncapped-Bolt-On
They will link your LITE account with this Bolt-on package, and you will not need to change any router settings; it automatically changes to uncapped/capped at the specified times.
HTH

Fsuck. 130. Is it just congestion or something else going on Bolton wise? Crappy internet sux.

You talking about latency?

There is an acknowledged problem in CPT on the Vox network in the evenings at the moment which is causing sky high latencies, even locally. They're working on it.

 

[akescpt]

The latency is ok to my untrained eye. The speed just doesn't want to get off its ass in the evenings.

Check in on the Fatpipe thread. Looks like Telkom fault they're waiting on being resolved. I'm having the same issues as you on both Fatpipe and Bolton in the evenings.

Hi guys, is anyone having problems downloading P2P files on the bolt on package? My telkom account is downloading fine just the vox bolt on package isnt. I can surf the net and everything else fine, just P2P.

 

[DeathStrike]

Nope p2p is fine here. Got about 10gb queued. Going at 1MB per second.

There's currently a cable break affecting JHB/DBN. Check out the Fatpipe thread. Telkom are attending to it.

Thanks for letting me know. Would be nice if the support team for vox knew that as well

 

[Orbiter]

As stated in the Fatpipe thread, I got CAPPED on Bolt-on! Anyone else? Seems the backend or frontend, or whatever end is actually running the show, were only looking at the Fatpipe data, not the Bolt-on.

I'm capped as well on my bolt on sigh
