Openweb trial account, how to test?

[Axabraxas]

Having never used a trial ISP account before I wonder if anyone could tell me how one goes about it?
I have log on details, would I enter them into router ip set up page? Telkom line, Openweb trial account.

Thanks!

what router do you have?
but usually

there is a setup/quick setup page-go there
then u willl see things if u see "username and password" filll in the details u got and click save/ok/finish

if u dont see that and just other thing there should (option blocks) there should be a next somewhere,and then look on the next page for the username field

if u can say what route u have it will be alot easyer to say the steps

Thanks for reply, got it working. OpenWeb seems to have significantly lower latency than Telkom. Wondering if it's because of a different backbone.
Online games that were unplayable are now just about ok.

In my experience, the product you get is never as good as the trial account you tested.

Yes I suspect that may well be true...The missus is keen on Web Africa as she has "heard of them but not Openweb". So it seems likely we will give WA a try first although I lean towards the latter. Appreciate the responses.
