<\/div>\n

South African ISP BitCo Telecoms has relaunched<\/strong><\/a> its previously discontinued Home Wireless product, offering a Wi-Fi-based uncapped service to customers who don\u2019t have fixed broadband options available.<\/p>\n

The launch follows upgrades of a large proportion of its carrier-grade wireless network in order to provide a better quality of service to its business customers.<\/p>\n

BitCo\u2019s Wireless-to-the-Home product offers a 30Mbps download speed at R1,099 per month.<\/p>\n

The package is available on either a 24-month contract or on a month-to-month basis, and it includes a Wi-Fi router.<\/p>\n

Potential customers should note the major difference between these two options is the once-off installation fee, which is R4,000 on the month-to-month option compared with R500 on contract.<\/p>\n

The service is asymmetrical, offering a 15Mbps upload speed, and it features a 1:3 contention rate.<\/p>\n

More areas and speed options coming<\/h3>\n

BitCo Head of Marketing and Sales Greg Sellars said for its next step, the ISP is looking to gain more customers and expand its wireless coverage to a larger footprint.<\/p>\n

BitCo added that there was potential to provide more speed options in future.<\/p>\n

According to BitCo\u2019s coverage map, Home Wireless is currently available in several areas across Pretoria, Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Bloemfontein, Nelspruit, and Rustenburg.<\/p>\n

Telkom 1TB LTE<\/h3>\n

Telkom recently launched its own wireless broadband offering for heavy Internet users.<\/p>\n

The new SIM-only 1TB LTE deal for R999<\/a><\/strong> has no fair use policy and is available on a month-to-month agreement.<\/p>\n

There is no speed limit on the package, which means it will be subject to the performance of Telkom\u2019s network in the area.<\/p>\n

A 24-month contract option is also available and includes a Huawei B535 router at R1,069 per month.<\/p>\n

Telkom noted that the data has a 60-day validity and that the offer is coverage-dependent and subject to an address check.<\/p>\n
