I recently purchased a 4G modem from Vodacom in Greenstone Mall. However, I am unable to receive 4G service in the Edenvale area. When I questioned Vodacom about this and why I was not told by the salesman that 4G does not work, they kept fobbing me off with emails going up and down between us. This is as far as I am concerned! I have demanded from Vodacom to prove to me where 4G reception is available in the Edenvale area but they refuse to answer my emails.

4G is 'a bit of a luxury'
But LTE or 4G is really a marketing term at this stage, said Dominic Cull, Ellipsis's telecoms expert. "I don't feel there is any really substance to it. There is a hype curve, and we are at the top of it. I anticipate real problems as they roll this out and the theoretical throughput promises are not met."
