Hey all,

Sorry in advance if this is posted in the wring category,

I was wondering if any provider offers uncapped/unshapped mobile broadband solution. Am not really keen at having a Telkom line installed as I am on the road most of the time and wouldn't really use it.

I tried MTN "Uncapped 3g" the only thing uncapped about it was the name, as the connection speed goes to almost 1kbps as soon as you reach your limit.

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated,
 
AFAIK MTN is your only real option when it comes to mobile uncapped, unless you get something like iBurst but I reckon you are more likely to have (semi) consistent service from MTN/Voda/CellC if you are going to be on the go.
 
Thanks all for your replies,

Guess I will have to hold onto MTN till something better comes up.
 
Why not look at iBurst they do offer uncapped solution :) Unfortunately it's not mobile but do check their coverage, rather spend a little more.

How many gigs are you thinking of consuming every month roughly?
 
R325 a month
i have to say im very happy with my MTN 3g
 
My son brought a E367 modem with an MTN Uncapped SIM home, - after 28 Gig. It was still giving 10 megbits/seconds download ... , I am tempted ...

It will slow down to about 25kb/s when its throttled

If it was not throttled after downloading 28Gig. - then when does throttling start .,.

Well this month
I got to about 30gb before i got throttled down , But now and again it does speed up back to normal speeds ( I get about 8mb/s )
Maybe when the network isnt too busy ?
would be nice if it was consistant , During offpeak or something

How much are you paying per month for that? Did you pay for the modem separately? Details, details, details :)
