FAQ

Get frequent solution of your question.

Answer

Yes. We offer uncapped and unshaped fibre connections that give you full control over your internet requirements. Our contention ratio is far lower than traditional ISPs, and we offer our customers the chance to have dedicated, uncontended data on tap.

Answer

Simply put, this is the number of times that an ISP shares the same amount of data with other clients. Typically, fibre ratios are about 10:1, but we are able to reduce this even further to a ratio of 4:1 or even 1:1 in the case of dedicated bandwidth packages.

Answer

Fibre network operators are the companies that trench and lay the physical fibre cable in your area. Internet Service Providers such as PCN are the companies that rent the lines from the FNO’s and supply you with the Internet service.

Answer

PCN makes use of multiple fibre infrastructure providers, so it depends on the infrastructure in your area. If there is already a Fibre internet box on the wall of your property or inside your apartment then it can just be a matter of days. Typically Installation time frames are as follows: Openserve: 7 Days Octotel: 14 Days Vuma: 14 Days Frogfoot: 14 Days SADV: 28Days Teralink: 14 Days Mitsol: 7 Weeks Clear Access: 14 Days Link Africa: 14 Days Metrofibre: 14 Days (7 days For Complexes & Estates)

Answer

ADSL is an older technology and therefore less reliable and slower than Fibre Internet. ADSL runs over older copper telephone cables, which are being phased out and will no longer be supported by telephone companies.

Answer

No, you do not need a telephone line to get fibre.

Answer

Broadband Fibre speeds are measured in Mbps. Speeds are based on your own preferences and needs and depend on what you are using the internet connection for.

Heavy Use: Required Speed 100Mbps - Media Rich Data Downloads, Heavy Streaming with multiple users, Video chats with multiple users.

Answer

It's as simple as signing up with us. To sign up with us and find the best fibre service provider visit https://www.pcn.co.za/fibre-coverage and search using your full physical address. Once you place your order we will confirm this with you via telephone or email. We will deliver your router before your service is installed. We suggest only canceling your older service once your Fibre Internet is installed and working to avoid downtime.

Answer

PCN Provide a standard wifi router with the service which is a lot better than most entry level wifi routers. WIFI coverage however depends greatly on the environment such as walls and other types of Interference. WIFI coverage range is generally as good as the range of a cordless phone. You may need to add additional wifi points to extend the range, which is something we can assist you with and quote you on.

Answer

Upgrades - Speed Upgrades can be effected within an average of 24 hours. We will pro-rata the additional charge for the month to you. Downgrades - Downgrades are processed within 1 calendar month. Cancelling - The PCN Router is the property of PCN meaning that the router needs to be sent back to us. Most of our packages are month to month meaning you can cancel by providing 1 calendar month's notice. If you cancel your PCN Fibre service within the first 12 months then PCN will invoice you the full installation fee that we subsidised upon installation. If you paid for the installation then no claw-back fee is applicable. If you are moving homes no cancellation is necessary we will assist you in moving your service.

Answer

Yes, you can - This technology is called VoIP and it is a way to make calls over the internet to standard phone numbers. We can even port your old number to us, meaning you keep the number you have. We can provide you with a quote on the hardware required for this and the cost to keep your existing number with PCN. For more information visit https://www.pcn.co.za/voip/
