Telkom cuts HSDPA modem prices

CUT ADSL LINE RENTAL PRICES and do AWAY with compulsory voice rental.....

ill spell it out for you telkom......A D S L PRICES!!!!
 
I just continually get the feeling that Telkom has almost abandoned fixed line services....why Telkom...you are never going to compete on the mobile front. Why not invest money in fibre to the home and business!
 
Does anyone know if the E960 gateways are network locked? I don't suppose they can be if the legislation around cellphones applies to wireless routers too? I'm quite keen to setup a wireless network at home, but don't want to go the ADSL route...

No, they are not - you simply replace the software with that required for the network you want to use.
 
Does anyone know if the Huawei E220 that Telkom is selling is network blocked or they not allowed to block them?

Thanks!!!

Is this gateway like a router & sim card modem combo?

Hey, slow down. Telkom's 3G costs are cheaper than anyone else's. Let's not be too critical. I know it is fashionable to hate on Telkom, but at least recognise where they are actually the price leaders.

Yup, that seems to be the gist of it. I'm kind of interested to have the gateway as a backup to my existing ADSL router. And for that price, who's complaining?
 
Sounds Good

Interestingly you cannot phone a Telkom Direct shop, they don't have a telephone number. Phoned Cape Gate shopping centre, and they said they have to walk to the store when they want to communicte with them ...

Perhaps they cannot afford to be connected to their own network :cool:
 
They are walk-in retail shops. If you want to phone, use the toll free numbers!
