Bonded by MagNet
Enterprise channel bonding — not consumer hotspot rental.
Why event organisers choose MagNet over basic WiFi rental
Most event WiFi providers drop a few access points on a single LTE router and hope for the best. When the tower congests or load shedding hits the upstream POP, your guests lose connectivity mid-keynote. MagNet Events uses channel bonding — the same enterprise technology behind our software product — to combine multiple carriers and paths into one reliable event uplink.
- Bonded multi-carrier uplink — not one fragile SIM card
- Load-shedding UPS on all core network equipment
- Captive portal lead capture and branded guest experience
- Dedicated streaming VLAN for broadcast and hybrid events
- On-site engineers for festivals and ICC-scale deployments
- Coverage in all nine provinces — Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Gqeberha and beyond
Event types we connect
From a 50-person estate wedding in Stellenbosch to an 80,000-person festival in Johannesburg, we dimension access points, backhaul and bonded uplinks for your exact crowd size and application mix.

How deployment works
Share your venue, dates, expected guest count and applications (guest WiFi, POS, live stream, registration). We run a desktop or on-site survey, quote fixed pricing, then deploy and commission before doors open.
- 1. Brief & survey — venue address, floor plan or field layout, crowd model
- 2. Fixed quote — transparent pricing, no hidden day-rate surprises
- 3. Build & commission — AP install, bonded uplink test, failover drill
- 4. Event support — remote NOC plus optional on-site engineer
- 5. Strike & report — equipment recovery plus usage analytics export
Deploy anywhere in South Africa
Temporary event internet and WiFi rental across all nine provinces — Gauteng, Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape, Free State, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, North West and Northern Cape.
Frequently asked questions
Which areas of South Africa do you cover?
All nine provinces. Primary logistics hubs in Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban with nationwide deployment for major events.
How is this different from venue-provided WiFi?
Venue WiFi is shared, uncontended and offers no lead capture or streaming SLA. We build a dedicated network dimensioned for your event with bonded backhaul.
Can you handle load shedding during our event?
Yes. UPS on core gear, dual-carrier bonding and optional Starlink are standard in our event packages.
Do you offer lead capture on guest WiFi?
Yes. Branded captive portals collect names, emails and consent for post-event marketing — CSV export or CRM webhook.
What lead time do you need?
Large festivals: 2–4 weeks. Corporate conferences: 1–2 weeks. Emergency metro deploy: same day subject to stock.
