ADSL Speeds

The latest MyBroadband speed test statistics show that Cybersmart and Vox Telecom offer the highest average DSL speeds in South Africa.

MyBroadband’s speed test server is hosted at the vendor-neutral Teraco/NapAfrica hosting environment, which ensures a fair base for testing.

Over the last month, 97,406 tests were performed on MyBroadband’s speed test server, which provides a good sample to draw conclusions from.

The results showed that Cybersmart and Vox Telecom had the highest average speeds in the 10Mbps ADSL and 40Mbps VDSL categories respectively.
