Telkom is not providing a service at all. ADSL is available only at a few locations where the users get 24/7 internet access at a flat rate. I know all the problems that ADSL have but imagine this,. I have to be on the Net a lot of times due to my work (whicj I am doing from home) no ADSL available so just imagine 14 hours a day 7 days a week at Telkom's normal rate!!! Yes I do have the R7 callmore service but that is only for after 7 where the bulk of my time is during normal office hours. I feel that if ADSL is not available they must also offer a flat rate to all internet users. They now the numbers of all the POP servers and surely can track it that way. Speed is not the problem here but definitely the money![V]
