MTN Uncapped Lite for R299

[Sicarius404]

i have downloaded 17 gbs so far this is what i get and im being throttled

 

[Sicarius404]

And the best part is I was able to play black ops and modern warfare 3 on local servers with no lag or spikes

 

[bsynaps]

i think this speed is bad that you are getting. I did a signal test yesterday at home because im also thinking of getting the mtn uncapped lite. I got 4 bars on HSDPA. Speedtest i get 1Mbit/s. Is your setup set to RAS(Modem) or NDIS?

Hi,not really sure as I am not very clued up on these, but I connect through the router with the sim inside, via wireless connection to pc.
WOW is playable, even PVP was ok, will test tonight in raid to see how it goes (10-man raid, myself and girlfriend gaming same time through the router on WOW, with Raidcall to chat).


Most of the time when I go to the router main page is shows HSPA+,signel between 2 and full usually. But storm outside brought it very slow last night I must admit.

Noob question: Can you please tell me what the difference is in RAS and NDIS?

Thanks

Hi,

Can someone with this package (preferably someone with FULL signal) please do ping tests to:

quake.isgaming.co.za

Hi,

Can someone with this package (preferably someone with FULL signal) please do ping tests to:

quake.isgaming.co.za

I quickly tested. This was tested in Bonaero Park and I think the signal might be full.
Things to note:
1. I am already throttled (So I don't know if you will get the same ping or not)
2. While I did the ping I was streaming radio. Don't want to stop it at the moment, because I am restreaming it to everyone in the office.

Strange,

Pings are better while streaming radio in the background:

I have pretty bad signal (~100dBm). So for other people that have bad reception: I get around 100KBps while not throttled. Currently my throttled speed is at around 15KBps, with bursts up to around 30KBps.

Pings around 180ms to local and 300ms+ to EU, very jittery but some MMORPGs are playable.

[caspa]

Anyone worked out how to do a balance check yet?

 

[Keeper]

Hey guys... so...do they throttle you now, or not.... what's the official answer?

And if they throttle you, to what speeds?

 

[LeonG]

Hey guys... so...do they throttle you now, or not.... what's the official answer?

And if they throttle you, to what speeds?

Yes, once you receive an sms from them that says you have been throttled then you know.

The throttled speed is a bit varaible:
Test I did now: http://www.speedtest.net/result/1839139341.png
And another test I did a few days ago:

I have been throttled since 5 days ago. Still going good
Here is my throttled speed: http://www.speedtest.net/result/1833102037.png

Is this package still available? Went to MTN and they have the uncapped lite with router only for R 329 per month.

 

[LeonG]

Should still be available.

As far as I know there are 3 Uncapped Lite packages:
- R289p/m then you get the E367 USB modem
- R299p/m then you get the B660 router
- R329p/m then you get the B683 router

 

[IceQB]

Any of you guys use this with newsgroups?
Guess it would be the paid option if being used.

 

[D3nz]

Should still be available.

- R299p/m then you get the B660 router
- R329p/m then you get the B683 router

Thanks for that. The lady at mtn told me they had those options you mentioned but that they were over and only the R 329 option was available...will contact mtn sales on Monday and recheck

How does the coverage look like in your area using the MTN coverage map?
http://196.13.230.221/facts/documents/Coverage/CoverageWebMain.html

Maybe you can get somebody from MTN to test your reception.

What a POS site...could not get any result on there.
