OpenWeb ADSL Network - Beta testers needed

[bullfrog]

This from openwebs speed test on their site:

Your current bandwidth reading is:

297.00kbps

which means you can download at 37.13 KB/sec. from our servers.

Good to hear that more accounts will be released soon, will we need to drop you an email again or will you notify us in this thread ? I just don't want to miss out on the opportunity again.

i'm with Stonecold on this - would like to "pressure test" the product aswell

 

[Kaufies]

I sent an email but didn't get a reply. Guess that's not good

 

[Avatar_5]

I sent an email as well, hope that'll get me on a waiting list

 

[Lostee]

Someone buzz me when more accounts are available, please!!!

I wonder how much this will cost per month?
I'd be happy around the R500 mark assuming the network is perfect upon its launch

Thats a bit much, R500 for 2 connections is the perfect price AFAIK.

You talking about DigiChilli? Those are 256KB/s accounts. I have one now and there is actually a noticeable difference between 256 and 384.

I hope this (384 uncapped) is only the start for OpenWeb. I'd really like to see someone challenge Axxess' Uncapped Express!

Just tried again this morning and still couldn't browse or anything of that nature.

Will try again a bit later this morning and then post some results.

Keep us updated on progress ToxicBunny. I'm hoping this won't turn into another DC...

Is there any visible shaping yet? Or is it performing like an unshaped account?

 

[Pooky]

I'm getting speeds averaging around 30-35 on utorrent.

Ok just gave it another bash...

seems like I can't break out for the local portion of the ADSL network.... I can get to the gateway and then it seems to get itself stuck in a bit of loop...

I've posted a portion of the tracert...

Hi ToxicBunny,

In which part of our beautifull country do you live? It seems like there is a problem in the Durban area.

Ahhh, that would possibly explain almost everything then.... considering I do lives in Debbin.

What problems were you having ? I couldn't connect to the service with the username and password sent to me

 

[ToxicBunny]

I can connect to the service, but can't do anything at all..

Nothing resolves.

 

[mm001]

We probably have the same problem then. Does your homepage or weather service load ?

First the weather now this, DAM YOU DURBAN!
