In Belgium, internet provider Telenet announced the application of fair use policy on a number of their internet subscriptions. Additionally, two new subscriptions have been launched under the common name FiberNet, which will be using the new EuroDOCSIS 3.0 specification to obtain the higher speeds.
After Belgacom, Telenet is the second provider in Belgium to apply fair use policy.

The fair use policies will be applied to the TurboNet and FiberNet subscription at the beginning of July this year. ExpressNet and TurboNet will also benefit from a speed increase (30Mbps instead of 25Mbps). The first of the two will not be upgraded to fair use but its traffic limit will be increased multiple times during the course of this year.

As for FiberNet, there will be two sub types available:

  • FiberNet100 will have a download speed of 100Mbps and will upload at 5Mbps.
  • FiberNet50 will be the cheaper variant with a speed of 50Mbps down and 2.5Mbps up.

At the moment, FiberNet is only available in combination with another subscription (digital TV, telephony, etc.) (so-called Shakes), but will be available within a few months.
