Checking Tech5 coverage at your address
Because Tech5 sells both fibre and wireless, the first question is which one your address can actually get. Fibre depends on whether one of the open-access networks it resells has lit your street, so a coverage check comes before anything else. Where fibre has not arrived, Tech5’s own point-to-point wireless can bridge the gap, and that needs a clear line of sight to a nearby tower, so ask for a site survey. Confirm the network behind a fibre plan too, since speeds and price vary by operator.
Who Tech5 Group is a fit for
- Homes and businesses in KwaZulu-Natal or Cape Town that want a single ISP across both fibre and wireless
- Sites fibre has not reached that need a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint wireless link
- Customers who want hosting and a website from the same provider as their connectivity
