I've been with Afrihost since 2014 and I really enjoy dealing with them. They also treat you sometimes and give you 3 months of free this or double your fibre speed for free for a short period of time. I quite like them.

The service from Afrihost is absolutely amazing with very efficient and friendly consultants. Nokwanda was a superstar and assisted me immediately. I promote Afrihost to everyone wherever I go, as they are the best fibre provider and deserve all the credit they get. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Afrihost is one of the better ISP's and very customer orientated. Being using different services with them over many years, LTE, hosting, Fibre, etc. and never had a challenge that they could not resolve professionally and speedily. I would highly recommend them..

Getting started with Pure DSL

Unlike regular DSL, you do NOT need to pay for a voice landline that you don’t even use. With Pure DSL you only pay for the DSL line rental and data - saving you more than R200 every month!

Follow our Getting Connected guide for step-by-step instructions.

Once you’ve signed up for a Pure DSL package, Openserve will have to install the new DSL services at your premises. This can take up to 14 working days.

Checking Pure DSL coverage

Use our Coverage Tool to check if DSL is available in your area.

No, not all line speeds will be available in all covered areas. This is because of infrastructure restrictions on Openserve’s side. Please use our Coverage Tool to check which packages are available in your area.

If DSL is not available in your area, we’ll check if any of our other data solutions are available. You can also choose to give us your details and we’ll let you know as soon as one of our Internet solutions becomes available in your area.

Shaping and prioritisation

No, all Pure DSL packages are uncapped, unshaped and unthrottled. There are no usage thresholds so you can use as much data as you like, whenever you like. No throttling or shaping will be applied.
