Well I switched to 8ta because of the increased data and cant be happier (touch wood). Other than the fact that Telkom can manage to send my invoice to email and not post I am happy.

And this is slow for me... my 21Mbit dongle goes to about 1.4MB downstream.

The dongle as tested below is a Vodafone K370514MBit dongle, connected to a TP-Link MR3220.

8ta latency is sky-rocketing! Expected to hit 5 seconds by december.

First week I had 8ta, the ping was BRILLIANT (40ms) :D
proof: http://www.pingtest.net/result/46954925.png (15 sept, 41ms, 9ms jitter)
http://www.speedtest.net/result/1486223236.png (16 sept, 40ms)

But, it has gotten progressively worse! Check out what happened after one week: (136ms) :wtf:
http://www.pingtest.net/result/47455179.png

And NOW, two months later, it is worse than vodacom! (785ms) :mad:
http://www.speedtest.net/result/1604597026.png

At this rate, in one month's time, it's going to be as bad as cell c's EDGE ping of 3sec to 5 sec!!! :twisted:

What's going on, 8ta? You're not going under already are you??!

I have been experiencing the same issue. Awesome the first 2 weeks of being on the contract, thereafter it just got worse with every week that passes.

What the heck is going on 8ta?
