*READ FIRST* Vodacom Problems: Slow Throughput, Trying to Connect, DNS, High Latency

Poor network performance Mount Pleasant PE.

Can a Vodacom rep please contact me?
I am experiencing poor voice quality and extremely slow data speeds even though the cell shows full signal and 3.5G in the Mount Pleasant area.

In Glendynningvale I am experiencing good speeds and voice quality, so I do not suspect my phone.
Thanks.

I just spoke with the guys looking after KZN and they advised there are general problems in the area that they are attending to.

Tomorrow I am going to the Telkom shop to attempt to purchase a data bundle. If that works OK I am afraid it's going to be goodbye to VC after many years. I think VC has too many users on their system and it keeps on falling over. The main hassle is going to be to migrate all my voice mail over to Gmail. I may take a week or two to advise all.
 
Vodacom Fail - International access almost non existent

Having this problem in Toti, was doing the same thing earlier this week. Local sites seem to be working fine, mybroadband.co.za very fast.
International sites load page header (Page Name) and that is it.
The strange thing though is if I run MyBroadband's speed test I get 1.09 Mbs download for International and National.
Fed up with Vodacom, have been battling with intermittent connectivity issues with them for the past 4 years. This and their unreasonably high premiums for their handsets is leading me port to another operator.

Thanks for the update! Was actually hoping it was my phone which broke - I need a reason to upgrade :p
 
Here's my little story from the Boskruin, Randburg area. Since Monday 18th July I have had abysmal download speeds (I guess around 20 KB/s) from when I get home from work until I give up. Wednesday evening I tried again before going to bed (around 23:00) and download speeds were fine again. Thursday after work same story as before. I thought i would try again at 23:00 to see what things were like and speeds were once again fine. I checked again this morning before work and there were no problems. So I will see how things go today, but if this continues, surely the Vodacom network is being "managed" in my area? I do have a ref by the way - S2-DGL3C-C19GM.
