Internet in DOW

Internet availability options and recommendations in the DOW area.

Fibre

There is currently no Fibre availability in DOW.

Surrounding area's are being gradually provisioned by either Link Africa (i.e. Kommetjie) , or Frogfoot (Capri and Sunnydale).

I tentatively expect Fibre to become available within 1-2 years given the surrounding infrastructure installations in progress.

LTE

Rain - Completely unusable due to speed issues, ok for limited use for those on a budget. Telkom LTE - usable, but expensive. Other 4G - (Cell C, MTN etc) intermittent at times, but works.

Fixed Wifi

Wibernet - My preferred choice - reasonable costs, and uncapped / unthrottled packages, with routable ip's. https://wibersolutions.co.za R599 / month for 10M down / 5M up. Blue Dog - More expensive than Wibernet, others in the area happy with their service. https://www.bluedogtech.co.za R699/ month for 10M down / 5M up / 600G transfer. R1150 / month for an equivalent package to Wibernet R599 package.
