I am not sure if there is a thread like this and if there is, why isn't it stickied? I did try to search for it.

Anywho, it's not every day that someone thanks Iburst, but I just have to today.

My Boss was struggling to access the company VPN for a couple of weeks now and he blamed our network for it. BTW, he is using MTN 3G. The more I tell hom that it is the poor signal and him connecting on GPRS, the less he wanted to know.

So, yesterday I told him that we had to go to his home so that I could do a couple of tests.

He stays in craighall: MTN = useless, VC = useless, unless you go outside and CellC (you never know) = also useless. So I told him that I will bring my Iburst modem to work today and then we go and test with it. I know, looooooooooong shot, but I had nothing to loose.

Low and behold, 90% signal and it works beautifully. No omni, wasn't outside, I just connected it at his table where he normally sits... So I told him to phone Iburst when he is at his home in CPT and let them test the signal there, just hope they don't disappoint me then. :D

For once I can suggest Iburst over 3G to a mobile user.

Thanx :)

Well if you are happy with the service etc then there should be ;) but it won't be made a sticky.

Also BTW, sorry but every time I see your name I go "Uh ha ha" like from finding nemo... :erm::o
 
sad day when a company deserves special praise for just doing what they get paid for

Thing is, we are quick to moan when things go wrong, but never appreciate it when it doesn't... Today Iburst made my life a bit easier and I think that deserves a thank you...

we are quick to moan because we pay for the service. if they were doing this for free, then by all means, praise and thank on. the monthly R239 is my way of saying thanks. So in fact, I have said thanks every month, without fault even though the service was sometimes up to crap.
 
I know what you mean, the service isn't perfect, but all I am saying is, for once, when I expected them to let me down, they didn't. I didn't have any hopes on it working, but it did and it made my boss' life easier, which in turn made my life easier... Iburst isn't perfect, but who is?
