Thank god 4 web africa (very slow today) but at least some connectivity...
DAMN TELKOM is offline since 8 this morning
 
another blistering evening of an 8.5kb/s download of the blackberry desktop software from blackberry.com. switch to my telkom account.. lo and behold... 400kb/s.

webafrica?! perhaps its time to switch.
 
My local, and I had to try this 3 times before I could even get a result,

EDIT: Japan :(

I cannot even browse this morning... having to switch to a Telkom account just to post here now... when will this end WA?
 
Mine seems fine.

EDIT: On second thought it seems a bit slow browsing.

Browsing is awful and downloading is even worse .... on WA Local Only.
 
Unfortunately I'm experiencing slow browsing as well (again). Very slow during office hours, full speed after 5pm. Nothing has changed. I can't even get standard news sites (intl and local) to load completely.
 
Slow here too.

Premium bandwidth is seriously getting old...especially since this "premium" bandwidth is so shoddy during office hours. Thinking of getting another account and only using my account for after hours since that's the only time it's really brilliant...
