Yay, I now have the problem I feared I might have.

The ADSL checker says Im on 4Mb now (was on 2Mb), but its broken my ADSL connection. Last night it was not syncing at all. This morning when I woke up I saw ADSL line and ISP connected... line only synced at 256Kbps, then I reset my router, synced at 412, and later on 387Kbps.

My stats changed from : (which it always was running at)
Speed 2048; Line Attenuation 53dB, Noise Ratio 11.9dB

to:
Speed 256; LA 64dB, Noise 6.9dB
Speed 412; LA 64dB, Noise 5.3dB
Speed 387; LA 63.5dB, Noise 5.1dB

So alot worse.

Where to now; how do I get this fixed ? Could TelkomZA help?

Yeah you have too much noise on your line you should down grade to your previous best call telkom Or wait till they complete the upgrades it might improve

I'm durban and yes I've checked the adsl checker, it's been showing 4mbps from Sunday but they refuses to upgrade me when I call and even a port reset didn't do much, it's either our technicians in durban are sleeping or they upgrading the locations thats most busy. What's sad is I'm on a telkom bundle. We supposed to get priority service. I think I'll call them again and bug them

Yea, telkoms support in durban seems very ****. 3 weeks and still waiting for a technician to fix my bloody line. Also seem to be last when it comes to upgrades

Don't remind me. My internet runs flawless but to make a call, you'll think twice!! All you hear is static sounds. When I do call a techi, all they do is cut and join. Sometimes I feel like stealing my own telephone wire and forcing them to replace. ( I'm just kidding Mr policeman that's mentioning me)

Good luck

You should be grateful that you have 4mb unlike some who cant even get more than 2mb

I am although I am now paying for 10 meg which I can't get with the do capped bundle so if they not going to ever upgrade me I am thinking of going the uncapped option.
