vodacom "edge" vs Mtn EDGE

De Aaar has full hsdpa. we have 'edge' according to the map on vodacoms site, and according to my phone. I will be happy with Edge for now, but the speeds we get on our 'edge' is not edge, its gprs speeds whereas MTN in the same area gets proper Edge speeds. my question was not why is there no 3g, it was, why is our edge so crap


Hi Albert123

So i had the look at the tower you connecting and it shows the MTN base station Van_der_Kloof_MTN_3 so we are sharing the site.I will escalate to Radio to have a look at the site
