FTTH to home ISP's

[Fiekie247]

Hi

I saw that DFA and LightSpeed have coverage for Fibre in the midrand area.

Would anyone be able to tell me which ISP offer FTTH using DFA or Lightspeed for home users in the midrand area?

Thanks

Do you mean 'at a lower price'? Cause you should just sat that

The answer is no... Most likely not. Since most of the cost is for the fibre and the cost is the same for 1 Mbps as for 1000 Mbps. You do the maths.

I saw on their Website 20Mbps is R899. http://www.lightspeed.co.za/order_form.php expand the FTTH section and see prices, but are those only for the connection without the data?

Also, if i look at the map http://www.lightspeed.co.za/index.php#wanmap and go to Johannesburg i see midrand is covered fully with this service, so is DFA.

Sure a few... Cybersmart (Lightspeed), WebAfrica, MWeb, Telkom etc. but you need interest in your area as DFA have fibre in most metros you just need it from the closest man hole to your router. Checkout vumatel.co.za I'm in the process with my gated community.

There is no termination points for fibre in the manholes. You need it from the closest fibre DB box, not the closest manhole.
