bunch of cheapskates you'll are
3G is absolutely dreadful. Even in the UK, it's a joke. Don't. Just don't. It's slow, it's extremely unreliable, it's rubbish. Besides, the cost of bandwidth on 3G is extortionate.
iBurst isn't bad, but I'm not sure you realise that iBurst doesn't use your phone line - it uses a wireless infrastructure. While some ISPs are iBurst resellers (i.e. they offer iBurst packages alongside their ADSL stuff), it's probably best to go through iBurst directly.
That said, there's a bunch of stuff to consider, most important being what quality of signal reception you're going to be getting in Kuils River. If you've got anything less than 80% signal strength, don't bother. You're also going to get inherently higher latencies on wireless than fixed line. The quality of your signal also affects this dramatically. You can request an iBurst techie come around and test this for you before subscribing.
Also, there are two ways of subscribing to iBurst - signing a 24-month contract, or going month-to-month. The second option has the rather unattractive feature of coughing up for a R2000 modem upfront.
iBurst's service is okay, but if you can get a fixed line, then get a fixed line, even if you have to wait around a bit.
iBurst has 85% in Kuils River, my bro stays there.
In the meantime go without internet and SP for awhile
thnx for feed back guyz.
