Wireless internet – recommendations?
In a few weeks time I’m off to the Berg for a bit of a holiday – but I still would like to have internet to keep on doing those vital website thingies and email and all of that (and to check I’m still alive). I know we all work virtually and many of us have wireless internet so my question is – what does the team recommend? I only need it for a few weeks and then it’s back to DSL…I’ve heard iBurst is pretty good and Telkom also offers something similar…suggestions?

Most important thing is to check the footprint, I couldn’t get iBurst in Northriding, so I doubt you’ll have any luck in the berg. I’d recommend, assuming your phone and laptop play nice, simply using GPRS, you’ll pay a bit more, and the speeds aren’t great, but it’s for a short time, and works well…!
IBurst has been slow on roll out.Just been up in White River for a week. Was unable to use mine. It is not available beyond some main areas in JHB CT and Durban at present. I wonder if a company will come up with a solution for someone like you who does not want the 24 month contract or to purchase the modem? Hope they read our blog.
I am using Vodafone’s 3G one package. But you don’t need a 2 year contract, so I’d agree with Rich…! Go GPRS @ 57Kbps
