Telkom Speed upgrades

[Jonty97]

From ADSL Checker for my line.

ADSL Availability
Service Available
Maximum speed available in your area 4 Mbps
Your Current Service speed 10 Mbps
To enjoy a faster surfing experience you can upgrade your connection.

Just been told because I am on a Mini DSLam, 4meg, (which I am currently on & which runs smoothly) is the best I will get??

I just tweeted that my line is syncing at 2Mbps while the website says 4Mbps. He then just requested that I DM him my telephone number.

He is quite flooded by messages, so give him time to reply. Probably not going to reply for the rest of the day though - past 5pm

Woot! My line has been upgraded to 4Mbps!






Sadly, my account is still 2Mbps I speedtested my line and the result was not impressive No improvements. It STILL maxed out at 220KB/s instead of 250Kb/s.

Line upgraded here. Finally caved in, and just asked.

 

[DukeofHouse]

Anyone else on the 4meg line not yet upgraded to 10meg?

Tried calling Telkom and got the standard, "We're not finished with the upgrades yet - check again next week" answer...

Hi All

Being upgraded to 4meg line.
Did a speed test still shows only 1meg. I do have only a 1meg account.
Should speed test still give you full throttle only for the test?
