I love Afrihost. Even the ease of resolving any issues, is prompt, friendly service. Haven't thought about changing Service providers since we signed up with them.

No issues to date really. Maybe waaay in the beginning with addresses related to my residence and their system. But since then its been smooth sailing with absolute minimal down time.

I've only ever had fantastic, friendly service from everyone that I've dealt with at Afrihost. It's a welcome change from all the other corporates where one is made to feel that you're only a number!

Excellent service by Afrihost and staff member, Jehan who was able to resolve my issue within 30 minutes. I appreciate being kept updated along the way.

Have been with Afrihost for 3 years now and couldn't be happier with this provider. Even when I had to do the switch from cell c, it was seamless and very convenient. They resolve all issues quickly and efficiently. My internet connection is fast and reliable 99.9% of the time and if there is ever an issue, they notify via text message, although that seldom happens. I always recommend them to friends and family.

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.

General questions

Yes, the price you see is the price you pay! All Pure DSL packages are bundled, so the price is for both your data and the line rental, all-inclusive.

Yes, you’ll need an existing copper line at your premises to connect to Pure DSL. You do not, however, need to pay for voice line rental to get connected to Pure DSL. You only need to pay for the DSL line rental and data.

Please note that because Pure DSL is a separate service from regular DSL, Openserve will have to install the new DSL services at your premises. This can take up to 14 working days.
