The Enterprise Business Unit of MTN Rwanda has unveiled its fixed Home Internet solution.
Dubbed “Connected Home,” consumers will be able to experience super-fast and reliable fixed wireless broadband internet at very affordable and reasonable rates directly into their homes.
The Connected Home solution is delivered to customers via a fixed point-to – point wireless connection via an antenna installed at their homes.
The antenna is pointing to a Fiber Optic network without the need to bring a physical fiber optic cable to the home.
This solution removes any barriers to accessibility, ultimately allowing the same fiber-like speeds for direct Internet access into the home.
“We are pleased to announce that MTN has ventured into providing fixed broadband internet to homes. With more people working and learning at home, we saw it important for our solutions to evolve to meet the demands of this new normal. We previously only provided fixed connectivity solutions to corporate institutions such as banks but have now invested and extended the solution into residential areas,” said Didas Ndoli, Senior Manager of MTN’s Enterprise Business Unit.
Customers can choose from 4 ( four) broadband internet packages, with speeds ranging from 5Mbps to 25Mbps depending on their specific needs.
Key features of MTN Business’s Fixed Home Broadband Internet are:
- Unlimited usage and high Internet speeds with the most reliable internet connectivity
- Installation and connection of a home within 48 hours upon subscribing for the service within Kigali (72 hours outside Kigali)
- 24/7 customer service and dedicated technical support
- Payment options via MTN MoMoPay by dialing *182*8*1*800000#
The service is currently available throughout Kigali covering more than 90 percent of key residential areas of the city.
“We have noted an increase in internet traffic, almost doubling in residential areas due to the Covid-19 situation. Good internet connectivity when working from home is no longer a luxury but has become the new normal. By providing affordable broadband Internet to homes, we are helping customers during this challenging time by addressing their real-world and business needs,” Ndoli added.
