Vumatel's surprise speed upgrade...

[rh1]

Got an email saying all upgrades are done but mine hasn't changed.

Contact your isp and log a fault.

What is your speed?

Still waiting on MWEB in Durbanville. Still on my previous speed of 100Mbps.

Hi @Captain Axxess,

Could you give an ETA on this?

Thanks

Do you have gigabit LAN ports?

If you are on trenched GPON and are going from 200 to 500 you are going to be waiting a while. I just had my ONT upgraded from a Calix 801Gv2 to an 803G and still only getting speeds of 350-400 so network capacity is a problem. Everyone else on lower speeds should already be upgraded and if you are not I suggest you start raising your voice.

Looks like my speeds are back to normal vumatel also won't do any checks until I log into the ont and do speed tests from there even though I changed routers

100mbs the upload has been stuck at 15mbs

Got the mail from MWeb. No change to date in Fourways on Vuma. April 1 is long past.

I've given up on checking for the upgrade or waiting for feedback. As long as my speed does not drop below what I pay for...meh.

Mate of mine on a different ISP is now getting substantially lower speeds in the evenings than his original.

Axxess finally upgraded my line.
Test over wifi

 

[Flanders]

Checked today and see I'm on 2x speed

 

[netstrider]

Yep, both the office and at home upgraded. Getting 700Mbps + at the office. Not sure what the speeds are supposed to be of it was 200/200?

Getting full value via Cool Ideas at home too.

Phone via Wifi.

 

[netstrider]

The test above was during load shedding as well so all good.

 

[netstrider]

I really hope the 500/200 stays permanently as I'm thinking of upgrading to it.

Sweet spot isn't it?

Just enough so you don't feel you're on a LAN and just enough so you're not an ordinary pleb XD
