So im new to this whole wireless thing. But im moving into The Meridian complex in Solheim next to Bedfordview. 90 Ag De Witt Drive.

And I need to figure out how to get internet access in the complex. If anyone can suggest a Wireless option I would be very grateful.

Or if anyone here knows whether they have some sort of adsl or any other sort of Internet access I can arrange for in the complex I would appreciate the info.

Thanks in advance for any info.
 
Broadband at the Meridian

Wireless not sure. The are LTE options, but I am sure they are costly and bandwidth limited. If you are not a heavy user they might suffice, but a hardline option is more reliable from my perspective.

Telkom has ADSL in the area (need landline), but you can sign up with other providers such as Mweb or Afrihost if you prefer. It runs at about 4-5 Mbps at best when you subscribe for 10 Mbps. I have the 1 Tb package package per month which runs about 1300 rands/mo, so I don't worry about throttling (it is very hard to download more than 1Tb in a month unless you are a movie addict). If you are throttled download is 0.5 Mbps which is worse than LTE. Upload is 0.5 Mbps at best.

Fibre has been run to the curb of the Meridian. But the Complex has not decided when and if they will let them in. But I hope they will soon.

Hi Looish5,

I stumbled upon your request by luck, I'm glad to let you know we service complexes, gated communities and student residence with Fibre and Wireless. You're within 2Km of our fibre connect tower and we can get you connected within 24/48 Hours and rollout to a complex within 7 days. Obviously with the fibre route there is trenching involved which most complexes frown upon, to avoid this we prefer the wireless route - which is also a lot quicker than a fibre rollout which takes between 3-6 months depending on the backlog.

Our packages start from R499pm.

Please send me a private message if you still need to get connected or know of any other residents within your complex that wish to get connected.

I look forward to chatting!
