This groundbreaking alliance will revolutionise the way South African ISPs provide coverage in rural areas, bridging the WiFi gap and offering cutting-edge connectivity solutions to communities that have been previously overlooked.
RUSH Network is rapidly expanding its open access fixed wireless coverage to new areas, with Bloemfontein being the next of many major cities to receive its services. The network currently covers a total population of over 12 million, including 1.2 million businesses and 4 million homes.
Our partnership with 28East offers ISPs a cost-effective and efficient way to expand their reach and enter new markets without requiring separate system integrations between the ISP and the RUSH Network.

Chief Technical Officer of The RUSH Network.
As demand for high-speed internet continues to grow in Africa, RUSH Network presents a powerful solution that enables ISPs to meet this demand with greater affordability and reliability.
In addition, the RUSH Network's installation process is an excellent advantage for ISPs. With installations taking only five working days from the time of order, ISPs can swiftly and effectively onboard new customers onto their network. In some cases, when a certified installer is available nearby, the installation can even take place on the same day the order is received
ISPs using the RUSH Network experience increased reliability with the multiple carrier-grade backhauls and power backup solutions provided by the network. This means that subscribers can enjoy a more stable and secure connection, with minimal downtime.
