Telkom ADSL speed increase update

-

Telkom is completing its ADSL speed upgrade project today (26 February 2014). This project saw 1 Mbps ADSL lines upgraded to 2 Mbps, 2 Mbps to 4 Mbps, and 4 Mbps to 10Mbps.
While most of Telkom’s ADSL clients have received the higher speeds, some clients could not be upgraded.
The possible reasons for not upgrading a line include that the modem is switched off, the quality of the copper is too low for higher speeds, or the distance from the exchange is too far.
Good news is that Telkom is addressing many of these issues. The company said that there is a continuous drive to upgrade all these customers to higher speeds.
“Telkom will continue to interrogate these subscribers’ modems to ensure that we have included all the DSL subscribers in the upgrade project,” Telkom said.

Google announced in a recent blog post that it has added 13 new languages to Gmail, with Afrikaans and isiZulu among them. Gmail was already available in 58 languages, and in bringing that total to 71 Google said its e-mail application now covers 94% of the world’s Internet population. The 13 languages added to Gmail are as follows: Afrikaans, Armenian, Azerbaijani (Azeri), Chinese (Hong Kong), French (Canada), Galician, Georgian, Khmer, Lao, Mongolian, Nepali, Sinhala, and Zulu. “As any native speaker knows, each language has its own nuances, so we worked closely with linguists to make sure the tone and style are just right,” Google said.
