Services to be offered
Along with rapidly growing its 3G, 4G LTE, and 5G mobile networks, Ethio Telecom is providing fast internet infrastructure to its clients by substituting fibre (also known as Fibre-to-the-Room, or FTTR, or Fibre-to-the-Home, or FTTH) for copper lines.

The partnership with DStv, announced on Friday, leverages this expanded capacity to offer various entertainment options, allowing customers to access entertainment content alongside fibre broadband internet and mobile data bundles.
Through this service, customers can enjoy entertainment at their convenience—whether watching football, live broadcasts, movies, dramas, news, and more—on computers, smartphones, smart TVs, and even non-smart TVs. The service also enables users to pay for both entertainment and internet services with a single bill via Telebirr.
With no need for a satellite dish or cable, fault repair becomes easier, and the service supports urban development standards by enhancing connectivity.
How to get started
Through Telebirr or My Ethiotel (*999#), users can easily purchase various monthly mobile data package options, including DStv’s Gojo, Beteseb, Meda, Meda Plus, and Premium packages (which include popular local and international channels) with discounts up to 35%. This service enables users to watch entertainment programs wherever they are.
Additionally, Ethio Telecom’s sales centres provide savings of up to 26.5 per cent for consumers who purchase bundles packaged with fibre broadband internet.
