strangely, the new place i moved into has neotel coverage, but no telkom infrastructure. :shock: neotel is noticeably slow after using a 4mbps adsl line, but at least the whiff can keep up with her email and bookfacing.

I am phoning them later to see if I have coverage in my area. Doubt it and I don't want to go with Helkom again...:(

The PCF Ranch uses the NeoFlex service.

Our email server uses iBurst but for EVERYTHING else we use Neotel. We have 3 NeoFlex units.

We have increased the signal strength by using Yagi antennas

KillerByte, What dBi rating are the antennas, and what distance to the tower? I assume these are 900MHz antennas?
