I tried that. The speed is the same. 1.4Mbps
Telkom keeps closing the fault ref without doing a thing.:mad:
 
Well if you used the guest account and got 1.4Mbps then it isn't a TelkomInternet issue, try PM telkomZA on the forum for help.

I agree. However there is definitely something wrong.
TelkomZA and Ranger did try to help but also failed :cry:

Right, so then this is a line issue, nothing I can do. I would recommend you downgrade to 2Mbps uncapped.

Sorry for lack of feedback in the past few days, we've been rushing to get new products out the door ...
 
Maybe I should reboot my router.

Arrrgh. typical, connection has been great, but tonight, when I actually need to download something (in this case Server 2012 ess from VLSC) and im getting a whopping 200KBps. I pulled Server 2012 std from the same site earlier today on Datapro's 10mb BDSL and it came down at 900KBps. I need more speed!!!

During the day my speed test was continously around 3.6 ...now it doesn't even want to start the speed test.

Download speed ..."connecting. ." :confused: 4mb uncapped.
 
Can we give positive feedback here as well?

This on a 1mb uncapped line this morning.My line runs at this speed consistently,sometimes goes to around .089mB/s but I'm surprised that your upload speed is not very different from mine.(Maybe because its international,which server did you use btw?)

Upload speed on 1, 2 and 4 MB are the same on ADSL. I think it's just 10MB where you get around 900kbps (double).
 
Good idea for positive feedback, btw. I think a lot of us get so caught up in just reporting problems or complaining, that we forget the times when we are actually getting good service and a good internet experience. Personally, things have been excellent on my 2MB Uncapped, apart from the issues when the guys were making whatever changes they were a few weeks ago. Since then, smooth sailing.
 
I had a bad adsl line. The tech changed a card on the exchange and since then my connection is rock solid..... Fullspeed 24/7 so telkom account is very stable actually and latency in league of legends is 210ms
 
Any idea what would cause a fast ping (14ms) but download speed stays stuck at "connecting"?
 
It's working again. 3.4 average now without doing anything :confused:

seems like this unresponsive tests only happens during the evenings
