Which ADSL ISP?

[jannievdberg]

Hi, Im a first time ADSL user getting the 192 option from telkom. I would like to know which ISP would be the best, but also cheapest, to go for? I'm looking at a 2GB Package and maybe later upgrading if need. I would appreciate some advice. Thanks

I would suggest looking at a cheap 3gig account from www.hellkom.co.za listing on the left hand side. 2gig accounts dont cost that much less and once your capped, there is no access at all. 3gig you still have access locally and "partially" not much, internationally.

Unless you know for a fact that you're not going to have very much usage for the month, I strongly suggest you don't get a 2GB account. As Clipse stated above, there's not much price difference between 2GB and 3GB accounts, but the downside is that if you're capped on the 2GB account you lose all access, which is a real bummer. 3GB accounts start at around R220p/m.

I would rather go for axxess 5gb at the least. I know you say that you dont need much but beleive me 2/3gb goes far to quickly. I also said that 3gb would be more than enough but then I got capt half way through the month.
Axxess 5gb is 279pm

Ok point I tried to make, get 3gig or up, depending on your budget. 2gig is a waste of time
