Telkom kicked off its ADSL speed upgrade today (24 August 2012), where customers currently on an “Up to 1024 kpbs” ADSL offering will automatically be upgraded to “Up to 2048 kpbs” ADSL.<\/p>\n
This first upgrade cycle is expected to continue for approximately six weeks – the time required to cover the national base Telkom said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe speed upgrades enable Telkom Internet to effectively increase the value to entry-level broadband customers.
