New LTE AUP from September 2016

[SeaSickMama]

My 3 accounts are R599 level 1 and they have the 4mbps p2p

do you use p2p alot maybe ?

None whatsoever on the LTE uncapped

odd, maybe they will bring it to everyone in the end think it might just be something different with uncapped 1 vs uncapped 3 or 2. i would not know just wish Telkom would clarify these things here on this forum

So the new AUP was a waste of time. Still getting my same crappy speeds.

Crappy seems to be getting crappier by the day, when they first installed I had 4 bars of signal, now I am down to 2 bars, and they just don't even care.

Where do you go to get the page where it said 4mbps and 128kbps? When I log onto titracker all I see is the R500 and the expiry for end of September, my one shows Uncapped 1.

I plan to keep using it as I have always been while checking 188 daily and keeping a record, since I hardly use P2P and only download after 12AM if they do cut me or throttle me in any way then I am left with no option but to RAISE HELL!!

Speeds have fallen off a cliff for me on 2 accounts...

 

[SeaSickMama]

My speed was around 25mbps in peak today 7:45pm don't know what yours was like

 

[HapticSimian]

Well...

Seems to be normalising so it might just be a hiccup tonight, but if not this B315 is going to get slathered in KY and shoved up some Telkom employee's naught in the coming days...

 

[Kawak]

I used to get 35mbps , now, I get around 15 and during evening peak hours that drops to 7. Asked Telkom to send a tech out to check they just couldn't be bothered since I have "service", guess I'll be climbing my roof soon.

I had the new AUP on my wireless uncapped 3 yesterday morning but its gone now.
Does not sense to me.
But streaming works like charm.

beware all, my streaming was lagging last night, tried restarting the B593, same result, pulled off the B593 and plugged in the B315, still lagging... maybe it's an issue with the specific tower I'm connected to, or maybe the throttling really has begun... either way, I'm gonna go buy a ladder today and point the antenna elsewhere and see if I get a different result, speed has been slowly degrading from the 39Mbps I got when I initially got the deal, but I figured when it dropped to about 18Mbps it was still useable, but last nights 3Mbps was just sad

Doesn't sound like a cap on streaming, but rather an issue with your tower / backhaul in your area

just seemed a little odd that it happened on the 1st of September hence why I'm suspicious

Well obviously it's the beginning of the month so nobody has hit the AUP yet.

Huh?, the 4mb limit has been implemented from the 1st.

 

[SeaSickMama]

Has anyone pushed it yet this month in terms of downloading over 50GB already or 100 even ? just to see if there is a AUP or something ?

Hey J, you were right, I got a whole 11Mbps today, definitely usable... then tooled around with the toolbox, and got 44Mbps...

false alarm everyone, my bad, I'll keep an eye on things, and let ya'll know if things fall apart

I'm back to being happy with my service again

Netflix, YouTube and the wife on showmax. 500gb is nothing at FHD on TV's and 2K on phones and iPads.

 

[Saba'a]

85 gb used already 4 September.
So about 20gb a day? Streaming with 1192mb (12gb) p2p torrenting
