Openweb SAIX account

[silkman]

does anyone know if openweb's 3GB SAIX accounts
http://www.openweb.co.za/saix_adsl.php
have 30G free local as well?

30g local is included only with IS backbone accounts,

but if I purchase the account from Telkom directly would 30g local then be included?
I just hate giving Telscum more business than is absolutely necessary

If you deal with Telkom directly, you get 10gig local per 1gig of international bandwidth(their dobroadband package). This is when Telkom is your ISP.

These other ISPs they resell SAIX bandwidth which in essence is the same bandwidth and infrastructure Telkom is selling (SAIX owned by Telkom if I remember correctly).

Or maybe we shall just wait 1-2 month for Seacom.

u think it's only gonna be 1-2 months, I think we may only see something materialise towards sep/oct

I'm optimistic about seacom! Anyone else feeling the same? Europe has about 500 of these cables... We have 1, owned by Telkom! I dont expect to see insane price drops though, maby just higher speeds... Anywho...

Jan uit!
