What's the best fibre in Durban North?
Durban North is one of the cheapest KZN metro areas to get on fibre. Openserve has saturated the suburb, and the network's entry-level uncapped 20/10 from R339/month makes it the price floor for the area. For households that just want a reliable line for streaming, browsing and calls, it's hard to beat.
Vumatel has expanded into Durban North too, and now serves a meaningful share of streets. Where it's live, you get symmetric upload (great for work-from-home and cloud backups) and higher gigabit tiers - often the right call if you work from home or game seriously.
