I have been experiencing frustrations with my Telkom ADSL line (which is being managed by Afrihost), with fluctuating download speeds, often slowing down to less than 1 Mbps. Even after various tests by Afrihost and logging faults with Telkom, the frustrations continue.

Unfortunately fibre is not yet available in my area, otherwise I would have switched over without hesitation.

However, I have been approached by a service provider DSL Telecom Connect, who are offering me Neotel VDSL packages with 20/40 Mbps speeds.

Any issues that I need to be aware of? Will it be worth my while switching to VDSL until fibre is available?
