SA's IT professionals prefer ADSL

[Inevitability]

40% of SA internet users have ADSL??
Seems too high.

to support my theory....
according to a recent myBB report , Telkom has less than 1m ADSL subscribers

I'm sure I recall an article saying they decreased though ?

As for cable theft, I would love to have a 3G solution with which you can initiate a PPPoE connection (almost as if it's a physical ADSL connection)... then you can put a proper firewall solution up without any double-NAT nonsense...

Can someone explain how the percentages work? I'm clearly not adding them up correctly.

EDIT: Perhaps not mutually exclusive? i.e. Perhaps people having more than one connection?

the numbers will add up to >100% cos most people will have multiple ways of accessing the internet.

Ah, as I expected then.

That other/unknown % is likely for work scenarios where people don't know how their companies infrastructure works?

We USE ADSL

We don't LOVE it - it's slow but it's uncapped

I am really amazed, though, how many professionals use WISPs - considering how little they advertise.

Thank you for clarifying that
