South Africa’s fibre underdogs are beating the giants

The Internet Service Providers' Association (Ispa) of South Africa released its February 2026 FNO Perception Survey, where ISPs rate the fibre network operators they buy wholesale access from. Six smaller operators — Lightspeed, Open Fibre, Lightstruck, Evotel, Seacom FibreCo, and WeCom — scored between 6.6 and 7.1 out of 10, outperforming most of the eight largest networks. Octotel retained the top spot among the major players at 7.5, while Vumatel showed the biggest year-on-year improvement (+1.0). The survey covered 406 ratings from 45 ISPs across 11 metrics including reliability, technical proficiency, and open-access adherence. Ispa notes the smaller operators' strong results are promising but carry less statistical weight due to fewer raters.

The Hot Fix

A tech support worker responds to a ticket about a printer in HR printing gibberish instead of documents. Upon arrival, he finds a manager using a hair dryer on the printer, which he defuses diplomatically. After basic troubleshooting fails, the team discovers the printer is outputting anonymous HR complaints submitted through a supposedly decommissioned intranet system, leading them to trace the network source of the misdirected print jobs.
