## Content

## In Short
- Afrihost will increase prices for its Pure Wireless LTE and 5G internet packages on June 1, 2026.
- The increases apply to both uncapped and capped plans, with changes ranging from about 5% to 20%.
- Capped customers will get more flexible data because all data will be treated as anytime data.

## What Happened
[Afrihost](/afrihost) has notified customers that its Pure Wireless products will cost more from June 1, 2026. The updated prices are already live for new sign-ups on its website.

Pure Wireless is fixed wireless access, which means home internet delivered over a mobile network, instead of fibre, using LTE or 5G and a router. Afrihost’s Pure Wireless packages run on [MTN](/mtn)’s network.

On the uncapped side, MyBroadband’s analysis shows increases such as:
- 20Mbps uncapped, from R299 to R319, up 7%
- 50Mbps uncapped, from R399 to R429, up 8%
- 100Mbps uncapped, from R599 to R693, up about 16%
- Wireless Plus, from R949 to R999, up about 5%

Wireless Plus is not fully uncapped at full speed. It has usage thresholds that reduce speed after certain monthly usage levels, including a 1TB threshold.

For capped packages, Afrihost is also changing how data is counted. It will remove the split between daytime and night-time allocations. All data will now be anytime data, meaning customers can use it at any hour.

## Why It Matters
Fixed wireless access is a key option for homes and small businesses that cannot get fibre quickly or affordably. Price changes can push customers to re-check value across LTE, 5G, fibre, and prepaid alternatives.

The move also reflects upstream network pricing pressure. MTN implemented price increases across some postpaid and month-to-month products from February 1, 2026, citing rising operating costs like electricity and network protection.

For capped users, the anytime-only change may soften the impact for people who previously could not use night data. For heavy users on uncapped tiers, the higher monthly fees will be the main change to budget for.
