Does anyone know if there is WiMax available in Bloemfontein? When I phone Telkom they cannot find my street(I live in a new developement). We dont have Telkom lines in this estate, so Im desperate!! Any help will be appreciated.
 
I have no idea. Haven't heard of any WiMax here. You can get eye-burst and HSDPA though (personally I'd stay away from iburst).
Are you living in some of the new developments in LHP? :)
 
Praeses ,I think he lives in Woodland Hills, as far as I can remember from some of his previous posts in the past.
I also haven't heard of any WiMax in Bloem yet.
 
I would have thought woodlands have telkom lines!
But I dont think there is wimax here either,
 
Yes, Im in Woodlands. No Telkom lines here. They use freakin radio dishes for phones!!:mad: I know they have WiMax in Bloem, but not sure which areas are covered. Hoping for Vodacom Wimax. I have HSDPA, but its not cost effective.

Please note that the WiMAX service cannot be guaranteed as it is dependant on Line of site and distance from the tower.
 
That list is outdated! Phone Telkom and then you will here that there is WiMax in Bloem, just not where I live...too bad. But hopefully bandwidth prices will be reduced soon, then my HSDPA wont be that expensive! Speeds are great where I live though, so its cool.
