Question of the Day: If you were buying a TV today, which brand would you choose?
OpenWeb uncapped ADSL R99 upgrade
- Thread starter Tomo3000
- Start date
Hey Friends,
Thank you for the interest in our Gold Uncapped product.
The VPN is only to be used when you need your Static IP active. If you have a VPN capable router, you can set it up in the router. If you do not need a Static IP, then you simply use the ADSL account normally.
You can get the Gold account without the Static IP as well.
The Static IP is a Public Static IP, that you can access from any internet facility in the world.
Kind regards
MrBEEP

we've been over this before and had no joy with my dgl4300 and getting it on with your vpn (lt2p/pptp) setup. thinking back...actually if i look back at the threads/emails/pm still waiting for you to test it
, but anyways :1) i guess it's one vpn per one static ?
2) is this as troublesome as last time when some of us just couldn't get it working ?
/noted that it's only for static.

Im afraid anything that works on the P2P and torrent technologies will be shaped during peak times. However, the shaping is not bad at all. Actually, our clients are very very happy 
Gold Uncapped offers quality as it allows folks whom do not want to be on a consumer ADSL network, but on a business one, access to that product.
Necuno,
Drop me an email: [email protected] Let's try again!

You guys can say what you will, but the mere fact that MrBEEP is responding to this article only minutes after it was place shows me that OpenWeb are atleast trying to make a change.
People are often quick to moan about what they DON'T have instead of what they do. It's simple, IF this package is NOT for you, move along and get yourself one that fits your needs and wallet.
This seems almost perfect for me.

Define "Peak times" please.
Please also explain "not bad" shaping. What are the parameters?
There are no specific times, but generally, network traffic drops between 18:00 and 19:00 at night. And usage is usually low over weekends, thus shaping should be minimal.
Hi bierman,
A 4Mbps solution is alot more difficult to offer due to the fee Telkom charges for IPCONNECT. We can offer a product, but the upgrade fee will be around R899, which is ALOT more money. I am not yet sure if there will be a market for it.

OpenWeb said:
Busy testing the account now, albeit on my 1mb line.
I'm hitting pretty much 512k max speds (around 45-55kb/sec) most of the time. Youtube video streaming seems "better" than my normal shaped 16gb account, but not MUCH better.
Going go to test some local gaming now. I'll post back when I have more.
I'm quite keen to see the graphs please. Can you post them? MWEB also claim "after hours", but the meaning seems to change whenever it suits. I think I speak for many when I say we would prefer to know or for you to arrange more specific times. How do we know that once you have a great deal more customers, you won't call Sunday at 11pm peak time?
