What Cape Town fibre costs per network
There are 254 Cape Town plans in the table above, spread across 7 fibre networks. They are not interchangeable: the cheapest way onto Octotel is R99 a month, while the same question on Zoom Fibre starts at R697. Which networks reach your address is usually decided for you, so the useful comparison is within a network rather than across the whole list.
| Network | Cape Town plans | Cheapest | Speed | Best R/Mbps, any plan |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Octotel | 34 | R99/mo | 100/100 Mbps | R0.40 |
| Metro Nexus | 36 | R249/mo | 30/30 Mbps | R1.24 |
| Comtel Fibre | 22 | R337/mo | 5/5 Mbps | R1.34 |
| Vumatel | 43 | R399/mo | 30/30 Mbps | R0.70 |
| Openserve | 49 | R437/mo | 30/30 Mbps | R1.00 |
| Frogfoot | 50 | R599/mo | 60/30 Mbps | R1.00 |
| Zoom Fibre | 20 | R697/mo | 50/50 Mbps | R1.32 |
The last column is the best rand-per-Mbps available anywhere on that network, at any speed — not the unit price of the cheapest line beside it. The two are rarely close, and the gap is the argument against buying on headline price. The entry tier in this segment is R99 for 100 Mbps on Octotel, which is R0.99 per Mbps; the best unit price in the whole segment is R0.40 per Mbps. Paying a little more for a much faster line is usually the better deal; paying the minimum almost never is.
| Monthly | 12 months | 24 months | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Promotional rate, if it never ended | R99/mo | R1 188 | R2 376 |
| Standing rate after promo | R845/mo | R10 140 | R20 280 |
| Once-off fee | R250 once | R250 | R250 |
| What you actually pay | R742/mo avg | R8 898 | R19 038 |
The first row is the number that gets advertised, and it is the one to ignore. Octotel is discounted from R845 to R99 for the first 2 months, then steps up by R746 a month — a 754% increase on the rate that sold you the line. Over two years that is R19 038 rather than the R2 376 the headline price implies, which works out at R793 a month rather than R99. Budget on the standing rate and treat the discount as a rebate on the first few months. The totals above include the R250 once-off charge this line carries, but not a router you buy outright. Cancellation terms are the other cost that does not appear in a monthly price: no fixed term is not the same as no cancellation fee, and several ISPs here claw back a waived install if you leave inside six or twelve months.
Looking wider than this segment? Compare every fibre deal we track puts the full catalogue in one sortable table, and the cheapest fibre deals ranks the whole market on price and rand-per-Mbps rather than within one network.

A once-off installation or activation charge is paid once, so it weighs on year one and not on year two. Where a line wins on the advertised rate but loses over twelve months, check how long you expect to keep it, and compare on effective monthly cost rather than on the headline. Next: Compare every 100 Mbps deal we track, on every network.

Where a Cape Town line is the right buy, and where it is not
Both sides are computed from the 254 monthly lines we price on Cape Town's 7 networks, so they move when those prices do.
Fibre in Cape Town is the right buy if…
- Your street is on one of Cape Town's 7 networksWe track live pricing on Octotel, Metro Nexus, Comtel Fibre, Vumatel, Openserve, Frogfoot and Zoom Fibre in Cape Town, from RSAweb, Afrihost, Webafrica, MWeb and Vox. That is 254 monthly lines on this page, and which of them you can actually order is decided by the trench outside your door rather than by which ISP you would prefer. If one of those names comes back on a coverage check at your address, every price here is real for you.
- You are buying on price in Cape TownThe floor here is Octotel 100/100 Mbps uncapped from R99/month via RSAweb. It is a genuine monthly line rather than a pre-paid pass, and it is the cheapest thing anyone sells on a Cape Town network that we hold a verified price for. Read the speed alongside it - the cheapest line in any city is an entry line, not a small discount on a fast one.
- You want a mainstream 100 Mbps line, not an entry one7 of Cape Town's networks carry a 100 Mbps-or-faster line, and the price range between them is the thing worth knowing: Octotel starts at R99 via RSAweb, Zoom Fibre at R919 via Webafrica - 9.3x for the same headline speed. The tier most households should shop is this one, and in Cape Town the network that reached your street matters more to the bill than the ISP you pick on it.
- You upload as much as you download144 of the 254 monthly lines in Cape Town are symmetrical - 57% of them - so a matched upload is readily available here if you work from home, back up off-site or stream out. Filter the table on it rather than assuming the fast lines are the symmetrical ones; they are not the same question.
Who should look elsewhere
- Your address has no fibre yetEvery price on this page assumes one of these 7 networks has already reached your street, and in Cape Town that is street-by-street rather than suburb-by-suburb. Check coverage at the exact address before you shortlist anything. If nothing comes back, this page cannot help you and fixed-wireless or LTE is the comparison to run instead.
- The network you have been reading about is not in Cape TownEvotel, Metro Nova, Balwin Fibre and Mitsol appear on our other city pages but do not carry a line we can price in Cape Town, and 4 further networks do not either. Coverage is per-operator and per-street, so a package you saw recommended nationally may simply have no footprint here. Shortlist on what a coverage check returns for your address, not on a brand.
- You want a gigabit on an entry-line budgetThe cheapest gigabit line we hold a verified Cape Town price for is Vumatel 1000/250 Mbps uncapped from R699/month via RSAweb - 7.1x the Cape Town floor of R99. No amount of comparing closes that: it is a different product rather than a better deal on the same one. If the budget is the constraint, the 100 Mbps tier is where to spend it.
Cape Town fibre networks
Cape Town has deep open-access competition - 254 monthly packages across seven networks, and Octotel gives the metro a large FNO that barely features in the Gauteng cities. Most addresses have at least two FNOs to choose from.
Openserve (Telkom)
South Africa's largest fibre network - wide CBD and suburban coverage in Cape Town.
Octotel
Cape Town's largest open-access network. Symmetrical lines, deep coverage from Atlantic Seaboard to Northern Suburbs.
Vumatel
Major Cape Town footprint with both Vuma Core (contract) and Vuma Reach (prepaid) options.
Frogfoot
Open-access FNO across most CT suburbs - strong residential and business coverage.
MetroFibre
Selected CT suburbs and estates - symmetrical fibre with predictable contention.
Zoom Fibre
Estate-focused FNO - fully symmetrical lines in lifestyle estates and gated communities.
Faster international capacity
The 2Africa subsea cable - a 45,000 km project from Meta, Vodafone, MTN GlobalConnect, Orange, China Mobile and others - landed in Cape Town at Yzerfontein and Duynefontein. With 180 Tbit/s capacity on key segments, it dramatically increases SA's international bandwidth and pushes down the chance of WACS/SAT3-style slowdowns.
