Hope I didn't make a blunder signing up with 8ta!

Mine was also a little slow, but not THAT bad... I did however have alot of disconnections last night... Luckily for me this isn't a regular issue, so wasn't too phased.

Just got it today and did the conversion to non-roaming or whatever it is to test out 100 megs of data for R40.

I'm more than happy with that, especially the ping, which I got worse with other providers.

My area also has no coverage at all....

Think I will try the 3gig promo first before I do the 60gig promo, I wont get a contract because my area is meant to have no coverage at all.

And i'm in CPT so that ping to Joberg is great for wireless...

From where exactly?
Click to expand...

I have gathered from looking at coverage maps, driving around and using the directionality of my corner reflector that the tower is in Eersterivier. My 6680's Netmonitor menu shows a distance to the GSM tower of 22km. I am in Stellenbosch, outside of the Stellenbosch coverage, but I do have LOS to Eersterivier. Signal around -80 dBm in my phone, MR3420 reports 45%. Using my E1820.

8.ta speed in DBN

I’ve just bought the 60 + 60 deal. I must say I didn’t quite expect the speed to be THAT fast. Well done 8.ta. Hope it stays like that!!!

What's going on with the ping? 0.o

Moved my dongle into what apparently is within LoS of a tower, which increased the download speed somewhat but my ping is still rubbish.

I had the same kind of problem on a samsung galaxy tab.However I could reference with some of my colleagues in the same building.They were getting dl speeds in excess of 7Mb/s.
I requested a data sim swop and voila I am flying @ an avg of about 6Mb/s.
