More ADSL for gaming options
ADSL South Africa (Broadband South Africa), 29 December
2009
More ADSL products designed for online gaming are surfacing as ISPs are starting to make use of their own networks. This will
definitely be welcomed by online gamers, especially by those who are looking to pay less for gaming
bandwidth.
Increased
competition…
Competition for the hearts and minds of online
gamers is heating up quite nicely if one considers the ADSL products designed for online gaming offered by
the likes of Telkom, Web Africa and iBurst.
Telkom
Telkom Internet offers
ADSL products or accounts that offer free local bandwidth (10Gb-30GB). This is ideal for local online gaming,
especially for gamers that want to save on the cost of bandwidth. Unfortunately, online gamers that are dependent
on Telkom Internet for gaming bandwidth, have to content with the fact that free local bandwidth only applies after
they’ve reached their ADSL caps. This sucks if one considers that Web Africa for one doesn’t count gaming bandwidth
towards one’s monthly ADSL cap, which definitely makes Web
Africa the better option in that regard.
