Durban - Post Report Question and Answers
Is high-speed home Internet access available? How long does it typically take to install it after arrival?
Available. They are very responsive via email and with any issues that may arrive. Installation took less than one day. No complaints. - Sep 2024
Yes, but the Telkom monolpoly is still holding prices up and service down. Although the new Seacom cable has arrived (just a few hours north of Durban) there has not been any noticeable improvements in speed or bandwidth. Nearly impossible to stream video and ridiculously low caps on up and downloads can leave you cut off from service half way through the month. Required landline phone and ADSL service is about $100/month. You can also purchase 3G modems through cell phone providers. This is a pay a you go set up that is about as costly as ADSL but perhaps more cost effective if you are light internet user. - Sep 2010
