Ok, now I'm really concerned, it's been around 5 days and I'm not capped? Anyone else not capped?

Im using a external antenna as well, the antenna has line of sight with the 8ta tower which is approx 1km away. Last week I got 7000 kbps. So far Im very happy with the speeds and the excellent customer service.

8ta Network

Really becoming tempting with their prices and options... I really am hoping they spread their 3G towers fast, far and wide...

8ta Towers are going to all

1. METROS first
2. Residentials around metro's
3. Townships
4. All areas were there is large residential communities.

The network will only be completed late 2012.

However we should be able to use the 8ta network where available by December 2011.

Things looking up for now R1-00 per minute all day Voice Rates coming soon.

At Last we have reached a point where cellular will be affordable.
