I wanted to find out if there is any Fibre to Home internet available in Kempton Park, they laid Fibre cables infront of our home in Terenure street, but how do I find out who the provider is, i have tried all the the big companies like Telkom but no luck??

Can anybody point me in the Right direction please?

Will do, please do the same. If I can get a 10 or 20Mbps fibre at home...I think I won't sleep for the first week hehehe

Having lived in Kempton for most of my adult life - I can confirm that the towns residents are very full of s h 1 t. Fibre is urgently needed there. Get on it ISP's.

East Rand, Atlas road area has been littered with OpenServe bakkies the last month or so, might be beneficial to give OpenServe a call?

Spoke to them yesterday - see below:

Good Day

Thank you for contacting Openserve Fibre to the Home.

Your address falls outside the coverage area please register interest on our website: http://openserve.co.za/interest-register/register as this will be taken into consideration when doing future planning and construction.

Regards

Maybe they are starting from that side which is far from me :(

We are in Van Riebeeck Park

Also waiting. Even worked on getting a petition in our street.

Cybermsart said we needed 10 people. We got 10 or the requried amount (something like R10000) but at the end of all of it Cybersmart said all the houses were too far apart and rejected.

Staying in Glen Marais

They might still be busy with the initial backhaul installations as they have been mainly up and down Atlas road. As far as I know they do that first and confirm they have links that are sufficient before branching into the residential areas or looking for signups.

Personally don't understand how fibre is such a non event in Kempton park and surrounds. The area is vast and densely populated. Where's the urgency?!!
