Don't know how accurate the link is - it says my line is on 4MB, but I know for a fact that it's still on 2MB. Don't know of anybody in my neighbourhood that has been upgraded yet.

Best to check your router's stats.

Considering Monday, checkadsl reported my line sync'ing at 2mb as apposed to 4mb as of this morning :) - Of course I checked my router ^_^
 
Thank you so much for the kind words. It really is appreciated :)

I must commend MrBeep and OpenWeb for their service.

I am having problems with my account and it hasn't been working fantastically. But MrBeep is always ready to help and attempt to provide solutions. Congratulations on trying your utmost to keep me as a satisfied customer. Please keep up the good work

Yes i agree, i complain alot about speed problems :) but they always help me out and fix it quickly
 
Been upgraded to 4mbps :)

Now waiting for Openweb to come up with a new product to match it, even a 1mb during the day and 4mb after hours would be great
 
Also, how do we access the free wifi on AlwaysOn, I cannot see the option for Openweb in the landing page when connected to the AlwaysOn network
 
Choose the Internet Solutions option and use your OW logins you use on your modem to access it.

Your Avast Antivirus Firewall is causing that. Try disable it for 10 minutes
