Fibre coverage, at your exact address.
Forget guessing by suburb. Check which fibre networks are actually live at your home — across every major network — then compare the deals that reach you.
Check fibre coverage in your area
Coverage is decided street by street, so the only reliable answer is a check at your exact address. It’s free, takes a minute, and shows every network live at your home plus the ISP packages on each line.
Check my addressWhy a per-address check beats a coverage map
Every fibre network publishes a coverage map, but a national map only shows the broad areas a network has built — not whether the cable has reached your premises. Because fibre is physically trenched into the ground street by street, coverage is granular: a network can be fully built on one road and not yet touched the next. That’s why a map can say your suburb is covered when your specific stand, complex or block of flats isn’t.
A checker that searches across networks at your exact address cuts through this — it tells you which networks are genuinely live at your home right now. We explain how to read the results in our guide to checking fibre coverage.
Coverage by network
South Africa’s fibre is open-access: the network operator owns the line, and many ISPs sell over it. Here are the major networks — each page covers where it reaches and how to check it at your address.
Coverage by city
Fibre is most mature in the metros. These area guides cover who’s digging where:
What the coverage statuses mean
| Status | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Live / available | The cable is in and ready. | Compare ISP packages and order. |
| Coming soon | Planned or under construction nearby. | Register interest; bridge with 5G/LTE. |
| Not available | No network covers your premises yet. | Register interest; re-check in a few months. |
Coverage questions
How do I check fibre coverage at my address?
Enter your full street address in the checker above. FibreScout searches every fibre network at once and shows which are live at your exact home, then lets you compare the ISP packages on those lines by real monthly price.
Why is a coverage map not enough?
A network’s coverage map shows the suburbs it has built, but fibre is trenched street by street — so a map can show your area as “covered” when your specific stand or complex isn’t yet. A per-address check is the only reliable answer.
My neighbour has fibre but I don’t — why?
Networks roll out in phases, so two homes a few doors apart can be on different sides of a build boundary. Your neighbour may also be on a different network. Checking your exact address catches whichever network has reached you.
What if no fibre is available yet?
Register your interest with the networks (it can help bring a build forward) and consider a 5G or LTE connection as a bridge. Coverage changes constantly, so it’s worth re-checking every few months.
