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.

i would like to advise any one who haven't install cabletnet to not do it, yes it has the greatest valu pack and highest speeds, but ask for how long you can use them, if you pay 39 or 69 to use internet for 2weeks monthly its better to have 1 or 2mbps everyday. Also they have to make an offer for actual users because the half August, hole September till today the internet is terrible but we still pay the same amounts. If you ask them they say sorry we will fix it soon, but don't understand that we pay for that, even youtube i can't watch normally!!!

Since last August Cable net offerw the worst service. The line does not stop but instead of 10 Mbps that i pay it runs as 2 Mbps. Each time i call them they say that it is general problem and it is caused by the big population of customers. The upgrate that they promised before the 15th of Octomber is a fary tail. If they dont correct the problem avoid them. They dont offer fair service. They are not proffesionals
