TT Connect — open-access fibre network operator on the East Rand
TT Connect builds and runs an open-access fibre network on the Gauteng East Rand, working from Clearwater Corporate Office Park North on the corner of Merlin Drive and Atlas Road in Boksburg. The footprint runs from Bedfordview through to Benoni and the company states it passes more than 300,000 homes. Because the network is open access, any internet service provider can sell over it, which means the monthly bill and the support desk you deal with belong to your ISP rather than to TT Connect.
Key facts
| Who they are | A fibre network operator on the East Rand running an open-access network that internet service providers sell services over |
| Internet services | Fibre infrastructure only. TT Connect states that as an open-access fibre provider it allows any ISP to offer internet services over its network, so buyers contract with an ISP rather than with TT Connect |
| Also offers | Nothing beyond the fibre network itself. There is no voice, hosting or hardware line |
| Head office | Clearwater Corporate Office Park North, Block C, corner Merlin Drive and Atlas Road, Parkhaven Extension 8, Boksburg |
| Coverage | From Bedfordview through to Benoni, described as passing over 300,000 homes, with the footprint expanding continuously. Check your street rather than your suburb |
| ICASA licence | No ICASA reference is published. An ISPA logo appears in the footer, which is an industry association rather than the regulator. Fibre network operators normally hold an ECNS licence, so ask for the reference if procurement requires it |
| Pricing | Not set by TT Connect. Line rental and package pricing come from whichever ISP you choose to ride the network, which is why the same TT Connect line can cost different amounts from different providers |

Know who you are actually buying from
Open access splits the job in two, and the split explains most of the confusion buyers have with TT Connect. The company lays and maintains the fibre; the internet service provider you sign with sells the package, bills you and answers the phone. So a slow line is usually a network question and a billing dispute is almost always an ISP question, even though both get reported against the same name. The practical consequence when you shop is that the same TT Connect line can carry very different prices depending on which ISP you buy from, so compare providers on the network before committing. The 300,000-homes figure is a footprint claim rather than a guarantee for your street, and the network is described as expanding daily. Check the address. Compare alternatives in the fibre provider directory.
Who TT Connect is a fit for
- East Rand homes and businesses between Bedfordview and Benoni

Can I buy internet directly from TT Connect?
No. TT Connect states it operates an open-access network and allows any internet service provider to offer services over it. You choose an ISP, and that ISP bills you and provides support. TT Connect maintains the fibre.
Which areas does TT Connect cover?
The footprint runs from Bedfordview through to Benoni on the Gauteng East Rand, described as passing more than 300,000 homes and expanding continuously. Coverage is decided street by street, so check your specific address.
Which ISPs sell over the TT Connect network?
The company does not publish a provider list on its site, though reviews mention several national ISPs operating on the network. Ask which providers currently serve your address, then compare their prices for the same line speed.
Why is the Google rating 2.9?
The profile carries 565 reviews and much of the criticism concerns package pricing and support, both of which are handled by the retail ISPs rather than by the network operator. WhichVoIP does not remove genuine negative feedback. Read a sample yourself and judge which complaints apply to the network and which to a particular ISP.
What does a TT Connect line cost?
TT Connect does not set the retail price. The monthly figure comes from your chosen ISP, which is why the same physical line can cost noticeably different amounts depending on who you sign with. Compare at least two providers on the same speed.
Is TT Connect ICASA licensed?
No licence reference is published on the site. An ISPA logo appears in the footer, which indicates industry association membership rather than a regulatory licence. Network operators normally hold an ECNS licence, so request the reference directly if you need it.
