New Telscum Line

[sycogrim]

6 months to get DSL at our new complex.. Was an absolute mission, basically had to take over from the estate as they had no clue what they were doing. If it's an existing complex, maybe try contact one of the residents / estate?

I'll see if they will be installing in the area any time soon but I doubt it.

:| if you can get DSL there then there must be lines there ...

Nah there's no lines there installed and I think it's purely due to the Eskom Pylons

your best bet is to phone them Mr Syco.... give them the exact address and viola!

I tried that and failed miserably

My money is also on phoning them, but if you are close to a Telkom direct store can check there as well.

That is what I did when wanted to find out if we had lines, complex had cables to each unit in my complex already (did not know) just had to actually pull it into my house to my study where I wanted it. Took me and the Telkom guy 20min and line was installed and running.
This was 3 days after applying for the line in the Telkom direct store.

I need to find out if they will put up an infrastructure there first though.

if there is no infrastructure good luck with that then. My friend stays in fourways and she has been waiting for a year now to have the infrastructure put into or near her co0mplex

Sucks dude, I thought telkom was pretty jacked up in the east rand now though.

From reading on mybroadband it seems your chances are quite low in getting infrastructure put in as they not happy to install at complexes unless there is enough client base there asking for lines to be put in and think it was 60% of the people they need interested.

broadbandstats.co.za may help you with finding out if it has infrastructure if you know a phone number nearby.

Having or not having ADSL would be a deal breaker for me, when making a decision to move somewhere..
