How about some details on when capping might actually take place instead of it being a total crapshoot?

 

[stoke]

i.e. When you get capped you cannot determine the usage you were capped at.
Bleugh.

 

[RegBes]

What happend to "Local bandwidth shall not be subject to the CAP" ?

 

[Superhero]

Ja I would also like to know - according to ICASA (yuck...) local capping is not allowed.

 

[stoke]

Why call it capping ?
It should be called disconnecting.
Dishonesty sucks.

Uncapped local bandwidth

When it comes to uncapped local bandwidth Telkom places the responsibility at the door of ISPs. The ADSL Regulations state that, “Local bandwidth usage shall not be subject to the cap.”

“ISPs, including TelkomInternet, obviously need to comply with the Regulation in this regard. Please note that Telkom, as a wholesale provider of Internet connectivity to ISPs does not cap customers as this is a functionally of the ISPs. Accordingly, we suggest that you take this matter up with your ISP,” Telkom said.

No ADSL resets

According to them it's not their problem.

ICASA ... DO SOMETHING. *sigh*

is this Telkom clarifying this or TelkomInternet, because telkom doesnt cap, or atleast to the other articles

 

[krycor]

Well you guys should hammer them on that, cause TelkomInternet is an isp, thus is responsible not to cap local Sadly tho, they can probably provide it in a sec, and every one will move over to them cause no isp will be able to compete with that.

Exactly - why is Loopy Lulu clarifying this? Telkom apparently has nothing to do with the activities of the ISPs.

But thanks for making it official - Telkom makes policy for TelkomInternet.

Telkom / SAIX / TelkomISP all have the same vat number dont they?
