Telkom Line Speed doubling?

the someone was the lady who helped me with ADSL info (on the 10217 number)

...next time i'll ask her ID number... ;)
 
Well my bro is on 8mbit but surprisingly his uploads speeds are still on 512. Thought Telkom would of bumped it up
 
awh the speeds are back to normal again it seems. I hope they test again soon. Waited all this time for October to arrive, and now I have to wait for MARCH?! :p
 
Or indefinitely...the jury is still out it seems :(

Nah, it can't be indefinitely. Telkom has to upgrade sooner or later or they will be left behind as a competitor. One day LLU will be unbundled and telkom needs to be in the best possible position when that happens.

Well we hope so but with government seemingly postponing LLU all we can do is sit and hope for change....
 
Im taking an IBIWISI approach from now on. So hey, if I ever see an upgrade, it will be like "surprise"!!! And Just_Ice will be :)
 
sorry if it is a dumb question, but is telkom going to charge you slighly more next year for upgrading our line speed or is it free, i'm asking because is it a good idea to upgrade from 384 to 512 now and get an upgrade next year or is it better to stick with my line?

Can't answer your question but compare the cost of the 512 line vs the 384 line... more than double the cost. Are you getting double the line speed improvement?

p.s. no such thing as a dumb question ;)
