DSL price cuts, & DSL news

As bandwidth becomes more readily available in South Africa, consumers of DSL products will continue to reap the benefits of falling DSL prices and innovative DSL products in 2011.

To kick off the year, we’ve got some good news for those looking for cheaper DSL and those who are existing DSL customers.

Super DSL prices cut by up to 50%!

Our Super DSL prices have been reduced, offering quality broadband access for as little as R15p/GB, and 1GB top-ups for R29/GB! It should be noted that this drop in price in no way affects the quality of our Super DSL products, which remain fully supported by our dedicated Helpdesk and still provide advanced features like port locking and usage statistics.

Does more broadband equal a faster Internet experience?

RSAWEB BroadbandWhilst we all heralded the arrival of ‘uncapped’ ADSL broadband in South Africa, and the pending 10Mbps ADSL speeds, that’s only half the story. Many don’t realise that past a certain point, the throughput speed of your internet connection will not actually result in your favourite website speeding up.

The majority of South African businesses and many residential customers are currently connected to a 4Mbps ADSL connection. The bandwidth figure is important, but by no means the only factor in determining the performance of your internet connection. Internet browsing, more commonly known as web traffic, is highly sensitive to Round Trip Times (RTT), or commonly known as ping times.

Consider the analogy of plumbing and the internet, with your ADSL connection being the proverbial pipe from the internet to your office or home. A larger pipe does not mean the water will flow faster, it will just allow more water to flow. The speed of the water flow does not increase, as is the case with the internet, which travels at the speed of light.

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of our Uncapped DSL accounts for 4Mbps, 512kb/s and 384kb/s DSL lines, priced at R499, R289 and R199 per month respectively.

This is great news for customers who are looking for a better Internet experience, and don’t want the hassle of being capped when they reach their monthly limit. With a fixed monthly cost for bandwidth, customers will also be able to make better use of other online services, such as online backup, hosted email and server hosting.
