No. NFS is a file-system technology, and is distinct from networking.
You want the NFS group:

I would use "showmount -e Kaapstad" to make sure that system really is
exporting those file systems in a way that we can see, and then
"wireshark" to see what goes wrong during the mount process.
I think it's better to get a cause of the problem first, rather than
just modifying arbitrary things to see if it changes.

You shouldn't need to. The system is supposed to switch between NFS
versions (4, 3, 2) as needed. I suspect that something else is amiss.
But, if you insist, "man nfs" suggests that the /etc/default/nfs file
can be used to tune the available NFS versions. Setting
NFS_CLIENT_VERSMAX=3 should do it.
