On 1Gbps? Give-or-take 80-seconds.

Therein lies the problem what is the point of that speed when data is still so costly in this country things have to change.

Here's the funny thing. I live ~ 1.5km from work. There we have a FTTP connection (among other types of connections for redundancy). They have metro-ethernet at the single exchange that covers the entire town. The Telkom fibre backbone runs right past our town and that is why it is available...
...if you're a large business or the municipality. If you want residential internet, you can choose between a 2Mbit/s or 4Mbit/s ADSL connection. No VDSl. No Telkom mobile...

You're not the only one. I have to somehow make my 10GB 3G cap last every month.
At least in December I'll be on ADSL again.
