These products offer good value-for-money in the R700 to R1,000 segment.<\/p>\n<p>Price-conscious subscribers also have the option of Rain\u2019s unlimited 4G service, priced at R479 per month.<\/p>\n<p>Telkom has the biggest portfolio of fixed-LTE products, which include capped and uncapped packages.<\/p>\n<p>The company also launches regular specials, which currently include a 10GB + 10GB deal for R99 per month and a 40GB + 40GB special for R199 per month.<\/p>\n<p>Cell C re-entered the fixed-LTE market last year with prices ranging between R59 for 20GB and R899 for 1TB.<\/p>\n<p>MTN also has a strong fixed-LTE drive using its award-winning mobile network. Its retail ISP, Supersonic, offers products ranging between 60GB and uncapped.<\/p>\n<p>Vodacom, in turn, offers subscribers 4G and 5G home broadband products ranging between 200GB and 800GB per month.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Best 4G and 5G broadband deals<\/h3>\n<p>The table below provides an overview of the best fixed wireless deals in South Africa.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mybb_table\">\n<div
