After spending a weekend wrestling with connection speed time-out issues to upgrade the software here, I'm well and truly sick and tired of our pathetic internet service quality.

Right now I've got a download going that's peaking at a thrilling 7.9kB/sec and averaging about 5.5kB/sec - over "nothing faster" Vodacom HSDPA. At that pace, ordinary dial-up would be faster!!

I reckon Vodacom is oversubscribed. Up to 1.8mbps indeed - what's the number for the ASA again?
