Angola’s fixed broadband subscriptions fell to 0.36 per 100 people in 2024.

Higher is better. More fixed subscriptions per person means more homes and firms with a steady, high-capacity connection, so a higher figure is better. The latest figure for 2024 is 0.36 per 100 people, down from 0.37 a year earlier, a fall of 2.9%. Since 2015 the range runs from a low of 0.29 per 100 people in 2016 to a high of 0.55 per 100 people in 2015. The current level sits a little above the low and well under the high, so the series has not regained its starting level.

Why it matters. At 0.36 per 100 people, fixed broadband reaches very few households in Angola. Businesses, schools and government offices that need a stable, fast link depend on a small base of subscriptions, and households mostly reach the internet by other routes. A fall from the 2015 level of 0.55 per 100 people shows that the fixed network has not kept pace with the population.
