DSTV Internet Packages, Prices, and how to get connected

DSTV Internet is the newest broadband solution in Africa having launched last week in South Africa. Multichoice which is the parent company of DSTV launched the service as an alternative for all users with limited access to Fiber Internet.

The fixed wireless Internet service is available for all customers in South Africa and offered in a trio of packages designed to make fast internet affordable for every user. Even though DSTV is present in many African countries, the service is expected to first achieve postive customer reviews in South Africa before Multichoice considers expansion across Sub-Saharan Africa.

Well, by the looks of things, you’d expect a DSTV Satellite dish providing you stable Internet in your home, but instead, DSTV Internet uses a customer premises equipment (CPE) router to provide high speed connectivity for all users.

Apparently, DSTV Internet is a product of Multichoice’s new theme branded as “an ongoing evolution from a traditional video entertainment business”. As a launch partner, MTN South Africa was selected as the DSTV Internet base ISP through which traffic is routed at super fast speeds similar to those offered on Fiber links.

Once you receive your new CPE router, it’s plug and play, you simply have to find a power source, switch the device on and configure your default WiFi SSID to connect your home devices.
