Upgraded my folks to this package from ADSL. Order and installation were completed within 5 days. Download/Upload speeds are very stable and haven't noticed any fluctuations. I've also noticed that although I'm on the R399 package, my download speed is 20Mbps so no complaints thus far.

i hope that works for me as well

going to sign up cos currently for WFH i am on the LTE package with them
 
Firstly, I wouldn't do a contract,

Secondly, I wouldn't use MWEB, ever. i wouldn't even recommend YOU use MWEB sammy, and that says a lot.

You sure you wanna do contract?

Probably other ISP's as well, with (much) better support and perhaps, no contract.

There's quite a few threads on Mybb how it's impossible to reach Mweb's customer support.

FNO ?

yeah the issue with im on a budget with internet and mweb is the only one who is offering it at 399

others are offering at around R550 plus
 
From what I recall Mweb used to have a strict FUP even on uncapped products not sure now but if you are with them on LTE than adding fibre to your account should be seamless.

apparently its uncapped unthrottled

So pretty much all Fibre providers who offer "uncapped" have a fair usage policy - for MWEB, a 10mbps line is usually 100GB, after which they throttle your speed to 5mbps. So it is "uncapped" in that they don't cut you off, but you lose speed.

on openserver pretty much all the ISps offer installation free (think Openserve subsidies this) and routers honestly they all give cheap routers don't even look at that as a plus :)
monthly price is good though -
how much are you paying for their LTE?
