superflyhi Kilos16:28
Kiloshi superfly hows things there?16:29
superflyKilos: getting settled, thanks16:29
superflyKilos: I tested out my Internet connection yesterday: http://www.speedtest.net/result/6262653294.png16:30
Kilosholy moly16:31
Kilosthats wonderful16:31
superflyIt's the top internet package where I am.16:32
superflyAnd it's not cheap, but I need the upload because I'm working from home and I need a good video connection16:32
Kilosworth it for those speeds16:32
superflyJust converted it: R1135 per month16:33
Kilosuncapped?16:33
superflyof course16:33
MaNIsame price here gets you a shitty 10m line with 2m upload \o/16:33
Kiloswow16:33
superflyuncapped, unshaped16:33
superflyMaNI: exactly what I had in Cape Town16:34
MaNIbusy shopping around for new internet for myself and I'm depressed how few options with reasonable upload I have available to me16:34
MaNIyou'd think the WISPs would offer some competition or something, but no it's all the same speeds and the same prices16:34
superflyMaNI: go live in one of those gated estates where they have fibre16:34
superfly:-P16:34
superflyI hear there's one in Noordhoek :-P16:35
MaNItheres one in somerset, but the person I know there says the fiber is shit16:35
superflyfibre is pretty expensive16:36
superflyand you end up paying a lot for not much bandwidth16:36
MaNITelkom LTE seems to be the 'best' option16:36
MaNIwhich I'm a bit cut up about because a long time ago I swore never to pay telkom money ever again16:36
superflyI mean, ZA is getting there, but it's still very depressing16:36
MaNII've stuck to that for like 11 years, but I may have no choice16:37
superflyMaNI: yeah, Telkom Mobile is actually pretty decent16:37
superflythey're actually a separate company to Telkom16:37
MaNIgot an LTE person in the area to send me a speedtest screenshot, 33m/7.24m16:37
MaNIand thats R799 a month16:37
superfly(the company I was working for in Cape Town was working with TM a few years ago)16:38
superflyyes16:38
MaNIseperate company or subsidiary 16:38
MaNIahh yeah subsidiary, thought so16:39
MaNIso they may be more competent than the mother company but I'm still supporting the evil blood sucking telkom at the end of the day16:39
MaNImoral dilemma 16:39
superflyhaha16:40
MaNIstill can't believe what a failure neotel have been16:43
inetprosuperfly: you don't need all that speed17:05
inetprooverkill, even for video17:05
inetprooh but why is your upload speed so low?17:06
superflyinetpro: I need the upload. besides, we use a lot of netflix and amazon prime video17:06
superflyinetpro: it's cable, so similar to ADSL in a way. Only fibre really has 1:117:07
