Cool ideas who in their right mind would touch Kiklo ? Overpriced product that they dont even own which is just resold via MFN actually.

Kiklo pretty much charge exactly the same as MFN direct.

If you are looking for a cheaper option. I would use Gigago as it's MFN direct at a lower price for the same speeds.

They don't own their own capacity they literally sell mfn if you understood their aetup. I have spoken to people at mfn and they informed me that kiklo has no infrastructure

Think of them like the old Vodacom shops you would get Nashua mobile etc they own nothing except take your money and hand it over to the correct company ie Vodacom in this example

Does anyone know if you get a public IP from Gigago or MFN directly? As in your own NAtted IP, npt a NAPT IP which everyone is using? I love hosting my own small servers and stuff.

Hi Metal, I would get hold of [email protected] & see what they say.

I was assigned a static IP when I asked for one.

Thanks for letting me know

Changed from MFN direct to Gigago. They are in essence the same ISP but Gigago are cheaper.

The contractor from MFN came to install the 803Gv2 & 844E hub this morning.

After a phone call to Gigago, I received the PPPoE details & I am connected.

Is anyone on the MFN network feeling the effect of these cable breaks?

New MFN direct prices as of 11/05/2022:

Bit more expensive than other ISP's on their network. I am not changing though (happy with the service).

Had non stop issues from metrofibre direct. Broken router (internet light would go out), them changing fibre cables, problems EVERY week. Eventually one dude form MFN rocks up and changes my router out. Tells me the major issue is the Alcatel-Lucent router and changes it out for a Nokia router. Never had 1 issue again. The router has superb range, covers my whole yard.

So to new customers, DEMAND you get the Nokia router.

Cheers,
