Is it worth it or at least a good idea to paying 1MB R399 (Telkom Simple) + R297 (Afrihost uncapped business)? I'm nervous about the throttling that may occur with 24/7 downloading and streaming. AFIAK Afrihost business uncapped usage policy looks to be better than Mweb and Telkom...

Alternatively the Telkom Do Uncapped for R514 is cheaper but don't trust telkom FUP?

Any comments welcome.

There's no mention of the unlimited data. Is this a new add on?

After you finish your cap you will be soft-capped. Speed of 384 kbps(Or 364 kbps) uncapped with fair usage and limited functionality(No youtube etc).

Some other information before you depend on softcap:

Why Telkom? The Afrihost Business account is completely unshaped 24/7
