Many South Africans are using wireless Internet services providers (WISPs) to serve their broadband needs.<\/p>\n

According to the Wireless Access Providers\u2019 Association, around 300,000 users rely on WISPs for their broadband and voice requirements.<\/p>\n

There are numerous WISPs which provide services in urban and rural locations, often serving areas where no other affordable connectivity is available.<\/p>\n

Many of these wireless providers offer uncapped products. Below\u00a0is a comparison of some of the prominent offerings in the market.<\/p>\n

It should be noted that the service levels, including the monthly fair use limits, of these accounts may differ.<\/p>\n
