Internet speed tests have become the go-to tool for customers wanting to check the quality of their internet connection. While they provide a quick snapshot of performance, the results are not always an accurate reflection of the actual browsing or streaming experience. Understanding the limitations of speed tests is key to interpreting the results correctly.

Here is a scenario: You’ve signed up for a fast Evotel fibre line — maybe 100 Mbps, 500 Mbps, or even 1 Gbps. But when you run a speed test on your phone or console, the results don’t always match what’s on your package.

In celebration of the Heritage Month, Evotel has set aside a R3000 Checkers/Woolworths/PnP voucher to the ultimate winner of the #SokkieForSeptember competition, any traditional dance, which they stand a chance to WIN for the ultimate Heritage Day braai!

Ever wondered what the world will be like in 2035 – just 10 years from now?

I can assure you that it will be a completely different environment from what you are seeing today. Things will be done differently – gadgets will display and be controlled in unimaginable ways, internet connectivity will be on another level, and electric cars could even be a thing of the past.

This Women’s Month, Evotel proudly honoured the remarkable women who are shaping its business and redefining the telecommunications industry. Under the bold theme “The Female Connection: Break the Mold,” the company dedicated the entire month of August to celebrating its women—because at Evotel, every woman deserves a spot in the light.

Evotel is proud to welcome PluxNet Fibre, a dynamic, community-focused South African ISP, to our growing network of partners. This exciting collaboration reinforces our joint commitment to delivering affordable, reliable, high-speed fibre internet to households and businesses across the country.

"Mandela Day reminds us that it’s not about big gestures, but about showing up for each other in small, consistent ways,” says Evotel Marketing Manager - Nadia Smith. “What matters is the community coming together—local organizations, partners like Evotel, and everyday people—to make sure no child is forgotten.”

Evotel celebrates ten extraordinary years since its founding in March 2015, with a clear purpose: to bridge the digital divide, bring fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) to underserved communities, and champion a customer-first service model that redefines the telecommunications landscape.
