Looking for Frogfoot fibre at your business address?
Frogfoot is a fibre network with a footprint in both the Western Cape and Gauteng, including Garden Route towns. Below: what Frogfoot is, where it is known to reach, how to check your own address, and what to do if it is not there.
Stem Connect can confirm what business connectivity is deliverable at that same address: fibre first, then wireless or LTE where fibre is not feasible or the lead time does not fit.
What Frogfoot is
Frogfoot is an open-access fibre network operator. It builds the fibre and leases capacity to internet service providers (ISPs), which sell their own packages over it. You buy from an ISP rather than from Frogfoot as a retail product, and the same line can be offered by many ISPs.
What sets it apart from the others people search for is its spread. Its footprint is concentrated in the Western Cape and Gauteng, and it has built in Garden Route towns such as George and Mossel Bay, where fewer networks overlap. Octotel is Western Cape only, MetroFibre is Gauteng-centred, Vumatel is one of the largest by homes passed, and Skywire is fixed wireless rather than fibre.
Known coverage
Known coverage includes:
- • Cape Town, including northern suburbs such as Durbanville, Bellville and Milnerton
- • Garden Route: George and Mossel Bay, including Hartenbos and Dana Bay
- • Gauteng: parts of Pretoria
Published build announcements date from different years, and the network has kept growing. Coverage is street by street, so treat this as where to look, and confirm the exact address with the network.
Coverage information last reviewed October 2026.
Stem Connect is independent of Frogfoot. We do not sell Frogfoot services, and this page is not provided by or on behalf of Frogfoot. The name is used here only to describe the network you searched for.
How to check Frogfoot availability at your address
The network and the ISPs on it can all answer this, with no one else involved.
- • Use the address coverage check on Frogfoot's own website. Going direct to the network is a sound first step.
- • Or use the coverage checker of an ISP that sells over Frogfoot. It will show whether the address is connected and what packages are on offer.
- • Pay attention to the status shown. Live, planned and not yet are different things, and planned does not come with a date to plan around.
- • If you rent, ask the landlord or building manager first. Access to in-building fibre in complexes and multi-tenant buildings may need their permission.
If Frogfoot is not at your address
The alternatives depend on whether you are in a metro or a smaller town.
Another network in the metros
In Cape Town, Octotel and Vumatel have also built, and in Johannesburg and Pretoria Vumatel and MetroFibre have. Many streets are passed by more than one network.
A dedicated business line
Business fibre is usually a different product from a consumer line, with committed service levels and faster fault response, and is often available in commercial areas where consumer fibre is not.
Fixed wireless in smaller towns
Where only one fibre network overlaps, or none, a radio link to a nearby tower is often the realistic alternative. Speed and latency depend on line of sight and tower load.
LTE or 5G, including as failover
Useful as a primary line where nothing better exists, and as failover alongside fibre so one cable cut does not stop the business.
Other networks: Vumatel, Octotel, MetroFibre, Skywire. See also South Africa network and coverage.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions from businesses researching Frogfoot.
Does Frogfoot sell internet directly?
Its model is to build the network and lease capacity to ISPs, which then sell to you. Its website is the right place to check coverage and to see which ISPs sell at your address.
Is Frogfoot available outside the big metros?
In places. It has built in Garden Route towns such as George and Mossel Bay. As always, availability is decided at the address, so check the exact street.
How do I know which ISP to choose on the network?
The physical line is the same whichever ISP you pick, so compare ISPs on support, contention and contract terms as well as price. Ask any business ISP whether the package is contended and what fault response it commits to.
Is Stem Connect a Frogfoot reseller?
No. Stem Connect is independent of Frogfoot and does not sell Frogfoot services. This page exists because many businesses start by searching for a network name when what they need is a reliable connection at a specific address. We look at what business connectivity is feasible at that address and tell you plainly what we can and cannot deliver there.
I already have Frogfoot at my premises. Can you help with that line?
Support for an existing Frogfoot service sits with the provider you buy it from, and we cannot fault-find or change a service we do not provide. If you want to compare it against what is feasible at the same address, send us the address and we will do that.
Availability and lead times are address-dependent. We confirm feasibility before any commitment.
