Goodbye ADSL — Fibre vs copper prices in South Africa

South Africa's fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) packages are generally cheaper than DSL broadband products with similar download speeds, a comparison by MyBroadband has found.

The sole provider of DSL infrastructure in South Africa — Telkom's Openserve fixed-line division — has been bleeding DSL customers since 2016.

Are we still saying goodbye ADSL?

NO... fiber is not cheaper than dsl. Just have a look what EVOTEL has to offer.

Aah the good old days of ADSL.
