My computer's speakers have gone from producing clearly audible sound to sounding muffled and barely audible in the space of a day. Earphones still work.

Cable or bluetooth? Try removing and reinserting the cable. Try forgetting and repairing bluetooth?

 

[Nicholas]

Cable.

Sorted.

Pressing the increase volume on one of the Soundsticks resolved the issue.

Finally chatted to someone at Telkom that isn't a moron or that disconnects me. Cancelling my LTE contract will be R1,600 and I can sell one of the routers and antenna to offset that and keep one set for backup.

About to order Coolideas on Octotel.

Question is if the R200 extra from 50 Mbps to 100 Mbps is worth it. Not a lot of money, sure, but for my needs it will be fine.

 

[biometrics]

I guess it's just pro rata to increase speed? No setup or initiation fees?

I had the same debate in feb. ended up going for the 100mbps because it came with a free UPs for the router. (RSA web)
very happy with the service. was upgraded to 200mbps after that.

problem is my laptop lap port is only 100mbps.
media PC is only 100mbps.
wife's laptop is 100mbps.
and the router that came with the deal doesnt do wifi more than 100mbps either.
so now I am thinking about upgrading the router, then getting a type C doc for my laptop that can do better speed.
but that goes back of the list.

this month will be a new desk for the office.
next month a new chair.
then a second desk (maybe)
then a second new chair.
only then can I do a router and docs for the laptops.

I am only working from home Mondays and Fridays. wife is working from home 6 days a week.
that is why the second desk is only a maybe
