Telkom Integrated Data Sim

You can't. The thing can't even send and receive SMS's

i can receive sms's strangely.. in fact, it still allows you to connect to whatsapp which requires sms or a call. so interesting

Yes mine can receive SMS's ...

yeh but calls are a no go which is a pity.. Im assuming Telkom has blocked this

Oh, OK. I have a dual SIM phone with two Telkom SIM's so I haven't paid attention to whether the data sim sending me SMS's yet

It's not ending. Telkom will apply limits to how much mobile data we can use.

Very little it seems lol

Maybe the integrated data promotion was starting to affect Mobile data users. I've read that some of the uncapped mobile subscribers have terrible connectivity.

Im having a rather bad time with dsl connection of late. Getting constant disconnects, then having to reboot the router. This happens at least once or twice an hour. So not sure what in the blazens is going on now again.

Used mine in USB ethernet mode at a client last Saturday and was getting a solid 10/4Mbps down/up which is about what I normally get.

Nope. Busy using it and seems fine. At home I get about 35Mbps down and 8 up.
