What is Afrihost on DNAtel?
DNAtel is a smaller open-access fibre network operator focused on selected residential and complex environments where it has been contracted to provide the in-suburb infrastructure. With Afrihost on DNAtel, Afrihost is the customer-facing ISP - billing, support, the connection to the wider internet - and DNAtel owns the cable from the street into your unit.
DNAtel pricing through Afrihost mirrors the standard Afrihost residential menu: uncapped, unshaped, month-to-month, with a free Wi-Fi 6 router on most tiers. The R5 000 setup credit available on bigger networks usually applies here too on new installs.
