I'd just like to thank all the new people on the Kempton tower for messing things up for me, I can see now that its started to fill a little bit I gotta fight for bandwith. Dont get me wrong its still good, and great compared to some others (*cough* Bryanston *cough*) but these little kiddies have stolen a good 20KB/s off my top speed. I suggest if you're one of the hookers on MY basestation you pack your bags and move immediatly, because rest assured I will win the bandwith fight.</rant>
 
Been doing fine on the kempton BS till now. Speed went for a ball of poo at about lunch time today.
Anyone else in kempton having the same issue?
Download is about 2kbps.

And no slim, i wont get off your basestation...shees.
 
yeah, it went to crap for me too, I was actually there the second it went from 125 to 20 at about 1. For me it was slow.. then I got disconnected, then it was fast and then an hour later it slowed down. I'm waiting till like 2 am to see if this was because of too many people, or the dudes at iBurst playing around with stuff.
 
phoned and spoke to thato, he said it was a technical thing not too many users and when I asked for an ETA he said he couldn't give me an exact time but it should be resolved sometime tonight... we shall see
 
Same crap here

Your line speed is approximately 147.9 Kbps or 18.1 kBytes/sec
from telkom line test
 
now i'm multithreading 2 files and managing to squeeze about 70 - 80. So I guess seeing as its 3 AM and all that some people may have gone to bed and freed up some bandwith, but non multithreaded speeds suck and so does firefox's speed.
 
I just saw my bandwith monitor hit 110KB/s, so I guess Kempton is crawling its way back
