Cablenet is the only Cable TV and Cable Internet carrier in Cyprus. Currently the coverage is limited only to several urban areas. The difference between Cable Internet and ADSL is that unlike ADSL (I-choice, Primetel) that connect you to the internet via the telephone line that is already installed in your home, you connect to Cablenet with a separate coaxial cable that is installed to your home once you purchase the service. Therefore, connecting to the Internet through Cablenet is independent of your telephone carrier. Cablenet also offers an ADSL product which is available at more locations.

In the seven years that I have lived in Cyprus I have used Cytanet, Spidernet, Otenet and finally Cablenet. With my fixed IP adddress and access to the router, I am finally able to access access my NAS drive, Slingbox and IP security camera from anywhere in the world. This is what I have patiently waited for, all those years.
My Slingbox controls my satellite receiver and DVD player giving me the ability to view them on my notebook or Nokia N95 via a wireless internet connection.
Cablenet is surely the best option in Cyprus.

I have been using the 6M line of Cablenet for one month now. During off-peak hours the connection is great. Streaming, downloading, and communication programs work flawlessly. BUT during the peak hours the connection is extremely lazy, slow, and has huge ping delays.
