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.

Ρε efrem δε μπορω να καταλάβω την επιμονή σου σώνει και καλά οτί φταίμε εμείς ή΄το pc μας ή το ότι δεν έχουμε router.
Aφού το δίκτυο είναι χάλια και το έχει παραδεχτεί η Cablenet και όλο μου λένε σε 10 μέρες και περιμένουμε τον εξοπλισμό κτλκτλ...
Υπάρχει προβλημα στο shaping οι ίδιοι μου είπανε.
Να πάρω router να κάνει τι το router να φτιάξει το δικτυο τους.
Σήμερα για παράδειγμα μετά από καιρό η σύνδεση ψιλοέφτιαξε για καμιά ώρα και πάνω που χάρηκα τα ίδια πάλι

Cablenet is an excellent Internet service provider with very low prices and an average customer support. But if you are a PLAYSTATION 3 addict it is NOT RECOMENDED even if you have the 10Mbit connection.

Η υπομονή έχει και τα όρια της έστειλα καταγγελία στο υπουργείο και στην ένωση καταναλωτών αν και δε πιστεύω να βγει άκρη.
Στη περίπτωση τους χρειάζεται μία αντιμετώπιση αλά ελληνικά

I have been a Cablenet TV subscriber since 2005 and have recently switched to Telephony and 10M Internet also. There support staff are slightly rude and not very competent and a transfer from my previous supplier was overly complicated as many of their front desk staff have no idea of the the correct procedure, if indeed there is one!!! (I ended up losing my Phone Number! and had to pick another!) Other than this the service itself for the past couple of months has been great - no bandwidth limits/no throttling I am very pleased.
