Web Intact (Or intactless service)

I've been using emule, and b4 all this **** started, was maxing out my line (~30kb/s). I haven't tried to use it since last week. It wouldn't download (or upload) anything. Manage to make a connection (eventually) though, but that was as far as I could get :mad:.
 
Don't forget - if you don't get an automated response with a unique tracking number, your mail didn't make it. Check that the address is [email protected] and not .com

You would do well to read your original mailing of 17/10. It specifically states that queries regarding the mailing should be directed to [email protected]. Can you explain?

Explain what? The different email addresses?
Simple - [email protected] is for support queries, and [email protected] is for queries regarding the package changes.

This was in response to
"I wont trust their e-mails it's been two weeks since i've send an e-mail to their support account and no reply what so ever."

P2P has been worse over the last week or so, as some of the lines we use for it have been down, hence less bandwidth available for p2p.

its posible, configure your router to connect to gwi like a normal connection without PPPoE authentication then on all the computers on the network setup a dial up PPPoE and dial in with diferent accounts,

Sorry - this is not possible. You will need two devices to log in with two accounts.
 
MR Webintact such a short visit, PLEASE WHEN WILL BE GETTING THE NEW INFO ON TH CAPPING POLICY AND WHEN WILL THE ONLINE SECTION BE AVAILABLE WHERE WE CAN CHECK OUR USAGE. SOME INFO PLEASE
 
Info I have at this stage, as posted here:

Hi all,

We're not strictly enforcing the capping policy yet, but are calling those who greatly exceed their cap at this stage, and slowing down their connection. This will soon become an automated system with automatic email warning alerts.

If you are monitoring your own usage at this stage, please ensure you take upload traffic into account, as this is included in your consumption figures.

I also just want to toss this info in for a more accurate comparison:

Our topup pricing may change from the initial R170 for 1Gb to around R120, to be confirmed.

These are current service prices inc VAT:

Telkom 384 + XDSL 3Gb = R453.62 (excluding phone line)
Telkom 384 + Telkom All Access 3Gb = R484.00 (excluding phone line)

XDSL 1Gb topup = R63 / 6.3c per Mb
Telkom 1Gb topup = R79 / 7.9c per Mb
3G/HSDPA 1Gb topup = R289 / 28.9c per Mb
iBurst - varying prices from around 30c - 45c per Mb

GWI 1Gb @ R170 = 17c per Mb
GWI 1Gb @ R120 = 12c per Mb

Compared to 3G/HSDPA: 1.7-2.4 x cheaper
Compared to Telkom: 1.5-2.1 x more
Compared to XDSL: 1.9-2.6 x more

Performance:

As has been mentioned here more a few times, if latency & responsiveness is your main criteria (ie gaming) you should not be using any wireless technology.

Although on fixed wireless you will most likely have a satisfactory experience most of the time, consistent performance cannot be guaranteed due to the nature of radio wave propogation. This is compounded in mobile wireless technologies.
 
Mr Web Intact am I correct in stating the following:

The 512kbps service will not cost anything extra as explained to me by GWI as part of GWI's new capping package. GWI also told me that all of its clients will be on 512kbps connection as from the end of November 2007.

This is the reason I decided to stay with GWI
 
This is correct.

It will be a best effort service though, and you'll get up to 512 - most likely a 512 MIR/128 CIR as I have mentioned here previously.
 
But, I'm sure Mr Web Intact said the 512kb service will require different hardware?
Is that right?
 
Nope - never said that....

My appologies. I'm getting my rumours mixed up here.

Speaking of which, any truth in the rumours that you're playing with a beamforming technology from a company who's name begins with 'N'?

Yebo yes... maybe you were thinking about that?
 
Mine was down at 11 this morning in raslouw, I phoned them and apenrently they were setting up a link to verizon.
 
apologies for the downtime - this was actually some faulty routers being replaced in Verizon.
Took a lot longer than anticipated when Murphy appeared...

I'd just like to say, I wasn't the Murphy involved in this incident...
