Stupid TELKOM!!!!


They have basically rendered the Internet useless to me.

All my games are shaped beyond playable limits.

LOTR: BFME lags so much, my opponents start swearing at me.
Everquest 2 : Can't even get a spell off, before geting killed, and each time I zone, I timeout
Battlefield 2: well that seems to be playable for now ???

DC++ : getting less than 2Kb/s useless.

Who do Telkom think they are? Do they really think they can get away with this? Obviously they can at the moment but the noose is getting smaller and smaller. They are boiling themselves slowly in a warm pot!!

Bast@ardos!!!

IDIOTS!!!!


Baaaaaaaaah

:(
 
sob sob sob.

I used to Skype and play games and Google Earth and peer-to-peer and all the good stuff that broadband was meant for, oh, and some web surfing.

From 1 August I can only surf the web. I upgraded to 384 and had 2 fantastic days of getting 40k, but now its down to 20k/s again (on Telkom's own speed test), so I'm wasting my money for the additional bandwidth.

Emmigration imminent.

:confused:
 
WHats the connetcion ratio and how far are you from the exchange?
 
I live 1km from the exchange. The thing is, my speed has been fantastic, only since 1 Aug has everything collapsed.
 
Mine all went to hell from the 31st July, at first I assumed it was the end of month "download as much crap as possible" thing, but when it didn't get any better from the 1st of Aug, I know Telkom have changed something
