iBurst performance in Norscot Johannesburg ridiculously slow, ping on speedtest in excess of 1000, download 0.06 upload 0.04, when I can actually get a working connection :(
 
Painfully slow in Roodekrans, Roodepoort area, even after moving my iburst to new area with much better reception.

My side or iBurst side? What can I do to find out what the problem is?

Hi,
The forests in that area are a bit of a problem and I stay in the same location. Best solution is to use an omni. There is a BTS at Design Quarter and Douglasdale Village.

Have got an omni, problem has crept in over the weekend, was somewhat better first thing this morning so thought it was fixed, but crappy again this afternoon, haven't experienced such slow speeds for a while.
 
I'm in ruimsig, have line of site to the tower on the hill but the speed has been painfully slow for the last few nights. Tonight it's realllllllllllly slow :-(
 
Iburst in cape town is not working again..... I can not browse anything, keep getting connection resets

And when pages do finally load they load without style sheets

Ditto for me, I keep reloading pages and eventually some of them do load.
