Ja, seriously, uncapped isn't really suited for gaming.

Not a bad idea to buy 2 accounts mike, a 1gb account through afrihost for CSS and afrihost/axxess uncapped account?

Over R200 but otherwise just try an mweb uncapped account for a month or two, I always had excellent performance from their 4mb uncapped accounts...

Does anyone here have either an Axxess Just Uncapped (not the justSurf or the Express), or perhaps an Afrihost Uncapped connection?

I'm looking for a 384kbps uncapped solution, but preferably not Mweb.

Also, how are your downloads/torrents throttled? I plan on torrenting a lot of Linux distros. :P
