Hi to all that can assist me.

I'm currently on a Openweb, 2meg line Gamers King account. My telkom line was upgraded two days ago, and I noticed an increase in download speed. Speedtest showed 3.2Mbps. I get around 350kbps on torrents. If I upgrade my line to openweb 4 meg, will I see an increase in downloading aswell? Will that 350+- increase, or must I keep as is.

The difference is +-R150 in package for Silver Turbo something. I msg MrBeep but no reply since last night.

Hope I dont sound confusing. In short, stay on 2 meg and be happy with 350kbps, or upgrade to 4 meg with Openweb for speed increase??

Thanx

Chris

Thing is, is the R150 worth the few extra Kbps if you are getting 350Kbps on your 2Mbps account? If you say yes - go for it!

You wont be getting speeds like that on speedtest if you are not already on a 4mb line. So if u are paying for 2mb and getting those speeds id just keep quiet and enjoy the free internets :P
