What is RSAweb on Flexi-Connect?
Flexi-Connect is RSAweb's low-commitment fibre line, built on Octotel's network rather than the Openserve lines that dominate the rest of RSAweb's catalogue. It is aimed at households that want fibre without signing up to a term, and it is priced and structured accordingly: pay upfront each month, top up on demand, and walk away whenever you like without a cancellation fee.
The trade-off is reach. Where RSAweb's standard fibre is available across most major metros, Flexi-Connect is currently sold in just seven areas - Langa, Pollsmoor Village, Moorreesburg, Struisbaai, Thembalethu, Kranshoek and Bredasdorp. If you are outside those, the standard RSAweb range is the option to look at instead.
One practical catch worth knowing before you sign up: if you do not recharge within 14 days of your month expiring, the service is cancelled outright and you need to place a new order to reconnect. Unused days from your first month are credited toward your first top-up.
A comparison of Flexi-Connect deals
We track 2 live Flexi-Connect packages from RSAweb. Here's how the line-up shapes up.
| Metric | Value | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Cheapest line | R399 | 20/10 Mbps · RSAweb |
| Fastest line | 80 Mbps | R835/month · Octotel |
| Best value | R10.44/Mbps | 80 Mbps at R835 |
| Symmetrical | 0 of 2 | packages upload at download speed |
Flexi-Connect's appeal is structural rather than purely about price: no contract, no setup fee and no cancellation penalty, where RSAweb's standard fibre asks for a 1, 12 or 24-month term and charges a R999 processing fee or the FNO's actual install cost, whichever is greater.
Speed tier ladder: Flexi-Connect
| Speed | Line type | Network | Cheapest ISP | From | R/Mbps |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 20/10 Mbps | Asymmetrical | Octotel | RSAweb | R399 | R19.95 |
| 80/20 Mbps | Asymmetrical | Octotel | RSAweb | R835 | R10.44 |
RSAweb starts at R399/mo here
That is the 20/10 Mbps Flexi-Connect line. RSAweb sells 55/25 Mbps Uncapped on the same network for R299 - R100/mo less. Sort the table to see which tiers that gap survives.

What a year actually costs
Advertised monthly price and 12-month cost of ownership are not the same ranking. Below, every Flexi-Connect line on this page over 12 months, with the promo step-up and the once-off fee where the operator publishes one.
| # | Package | Advertised | Reverts to | Once-off | 12-month total | Effective /mo | Rank on cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | RSAwebOctotel · 20/10 Mbps | R399 | — | not stated | R4 788 | R399 | 1 |
| 2 | RSAwebOctotel · 80/20 Mbps | R835 | — | not stated | R10 020 | R835 | 2 |
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: every ISP's 20 Mbps deals.

Frequently asked questions
The honest verdict
Where this page is the right answer, and where it is not. Both sides are computed from the 2 packages we track here, so they move when the prices do.
RSAweb on Flexi-Connect is the right buy if…
- Your address shows Flexi-Connect coverageCoverage decides this before price does. We track 2 verified RSAweb packages on Flexi-Connect, from R399/mo for 20/10 Mbps Flexi-Connect up to 80 Mbps.
Who should look elsewhere
- Price is the only thing that matters to youRSAweb sells 55/25 Mbps Uncapped on Flexi-Connect for R299 - R100/mo less than the cheapest line on this page. Over 24 months that is R2 400.
- You need a matched upload speedNot one of the 2 lines we track here is symmetrical - uploads top out at 20 Mbps. If you push large files up, look at a network that sells matched tiers.
- You want more than 80 Mbps80 Mbps is the fastest line we hold a verified price for here, so no amount of comparing on this page gets you a gigabit. That is a different network, not a different package.
- Your address does not show Flexi-ConnectThen none of the 2 prices above can help you, and comparing them is wasted effort. Coverage is decided by which network reached your street, not by which ISP you prefer - check the address first, then come back to price.
- You are buying on value per megabit, not on monthly priceThe cheapest line here is not the best value: 20/10 Mbps Flexi-Connect works out at R19.95/Mbps against R10.44/Mbps for 80/20 Mbps Flexi-Connect - 1.9x the price per megabit. If a bigger line fits the budget, it buys far more per rand.
