Rain- happy with their network

Anyone in Cape Town southern suburbs having issues with RAIN 4G? Contemplating getting a sim card for home LTE use

Mine was fine until recently. Suddenly connecting to a different tower and getting ridiculously low upload speeds but decent download speed.

Hmmmhhh..how long have you been using it? Im currently on Telkom 80GB LTE, but that's hardly enough to use properly. Downloading a PS4 plus game is just as good as going to buy it as I have to then buy the data for the download. Not to mention having to use lowest streaming settings to make it to the end of the month without throttling.

I was initially on the 1 week free trial from the end of June. So in total, around two weeks.

I'm happy with your download speeds, and I don't upload too much, but that must suck if you do. Anyway, thanks!

Me too. It’s now connecting to the nearer tower again and this is what I’m getting.

I don’t know if there’s a way to force it to connect to a certain tower depending on whether you prefer faster DL or UL speeds.
