    How thoughtful of them

    I'm suprised the testing didn't show high ping because I have allot of friends that complained about their unshaped latency and eventually moved to mweb

    I think it`s great. Maybe they`re trying to redeem themselves.
    We will only know afterwards of they sucked or performed well

    ps. As a side note, I would still like to know what the maximum players could
    be on the different line speeds using say BF3/GW2 as examples on:
    1Mb/4Mb/10Mb lines (10-15 players, the cheaper the better but still perform well)
    Did they take a flying guess to use 30x10Mb connections for 2500+ players or
    is there some logical reasoning behind it

    Honestly thought there'd be a bit more than 300Mbps. Isn't Telkom bringing in it's own internet to the expo already?

    Good to know, online authentication was a pain at past rAges.
    As I am competing in DGC, which is apart from the NAG LAN, I won't get to enjoy this bandwidth, but the DGC also has its own fibre lines for authentication of BF3, MW3 and SC2 I believe.

    What I want to know though is how they are going to regulate people from downloading the sh!t out of the interwebs? Proxies etc?

    They will just whitelist ports used by games

    Might be enough to cover those linux isos.
