    Just spoke to the guys at Screamers telekoms and they said that the deal that they have which is Uncapped and unshapped at R399 a month also has no thresholds or throttling... This all sounds to true but il try them, he also said its a month to month contract so if im not happy i can quit at the end of the month. There is no setup fees or anything like that.... So, i guess if i try them i have nothing to loose... And for anyone else interested, they offer Unshapped at R23 a gig!
    cheers

    Wireless is quite problematic, rains, planes and all sorts of things get in the way...
    im going with the modem, il try it out. They got some good deals, i mean 115 for 5 gigs at 4096kbps line!! Thats great! Does anyone know how much telkom charges to have a 4069kbps line? Just the rental that is.

    This is just a video of us. in the video My friend doc is talking and you see me taking 3 players and ending up with 2Health from 2:29. The clan we played wasnt anything great, anyway i miss it. cheers and thanks for the help

    Just a heads up - be wary of Screamer Telecoms, as I've heard they're experiencing some issues that are resulting in increased pings etc, making it problematic for gaming. Perhaps see if you can request a trial account or something first.
