About the CloudNet Community Network

CloudNet offers wireless internet access in Colbyn, Pretoria. using the 802.11b (WiFi) standard. This is a community driven project that depends on support from people in order to make it work. To support us you could offer to have a roof-top cone placed on your roof.

Cost

We charge R160 per month (uncapped). Payments can be made in cash or directly into our account.
The only setup cost is the cost of the WiFi card, if your notebook already has WiFi support then you're in luck! WiFi cards cost roughly R600 depending on the hardware you buy. We are registered with several dealers and can therefore obtain competitive prices for you. What hardware is required will depend on the level of coverage at your house or business, you may have to buy a flat panel antenna if you are situated in the outer rings (or beyond). Contact us for a free demo at your house.

Terms of Service

Our service is directly dependant on Telkom's ADSL service: If Telkom's ADSL is down, then we will not be able to connect you to the internet. This is unfortunate but unavoidable, but this said, Telkom's ADSL offering is relatively stable. CloudNet will do eveything possible to ensure the highest level of service but please bear with us when interruptions do occur. Please refer to TelkomDSL Terms of Service for more information.
