Is anyone still on 4 Mbps Fibre

How do you get the upgrade, if it has not been done?

I think it would be automatic for most users. If not, contact your ISP and ask them to investigate the matter for you.

Wait, are there planned upgrades from Telkom side? I haven't heard any of this and still on 4Mbps line.

Nothing but 4 Mbps available at my exchange as well. Asking Telkom for info about future plans for the exchange get you nowhere. :-/

There was something on MyBB news a while back. Telkom is discontinuing 4mb lines and upgrading everyone to 10's. I suspect it will take a while, as does everything they do.

Just for clarity: This query is WRT fiber, not ADSL.

(I was also going to comment, but realized the above and thought I'd just mention it instead :) )

Ahh makes sense now considering the thread is located in the "fibre discussions" section. Silly me. :X3:

Fiber upgrade to 10mbps saga (ADSL peeps stay off the thread)

The connection were upgraded in my area. But the TIN has not. So I have visit a shop to get this sorted out.

Dang TELKOM.

I have had my fill of queues over the "faa lala" season!!!!

I am on the Telkom/Vumatel 4Meg package. I noticed a while ago that the 4M was not listed on Vuma Site, Telkom only starting at 10M. I see that my line is also now running 10M. Does that mean my account is going to be charged for 10M or is it a free upgrade???

What p1$$es me off, is trying to find a route to upgrade from 4 to 10. The okes on their twitter account used to be quite useful, but all they seem to be doing now is handling mobile issues.

4Mb/s is no longer an option on fibre.

my 4mg line just got upped to a 10mg line this morning, woke up to torrents 1mb p/s download speed, so I'm guessing that is because of an upgrade.

I signed a contract so they have no right to charge me more, have had no contact from telkom telling me they are going to charge me more though.
