Bandwidth queries.
by Watchman 09 Nov '11

09 Nov '11

Anyone from Access KE on list? got a question. I've been doing some research after my conversation with someone on Access KE support staff on phone regarding bandwidth. I found that there was a flaw with something i was told. I was informed that Wimax bandwidth cannot exceed 1.5Mb/s and as such i cannot receive more data on my connection, that would be why i am unable to get a better data speed even though access kenya are already on the fiber connection and are handling Fiber as resellers. To clarify this, i found : *WiMAX* (*Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access*) is a communication technology for wirelessly delivering high-speed Internet service to large geographical areas. The 2005 WiMAX revision providedbit rates <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_rate> up to 40 Mbit/s[1]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX#cite_note-0> [2] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX#cite_note-1> with the 2011 update up to 1 Gbit/s for fixed stations.[3]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX#cite_note-UQ-WiMAX2-test-2> It is a part of a “fourth generation,” or 4G<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4G>, of wireless-communication technology Please assist me in understanding why even though they have probably got 1 - 2 GB/s Data lying in their pipes, there is limited capacity being dished out. By my calculations, 1GB/s = 1000MB/s at which i'm considering, they're dishing out 1Mb/s per residential, if they have 10,000 residential clients, that makes 1000Mb/s = 100MB/s. 900MB/s = *WHAT THE HELL?* This is why *W.Isp *is under construction. -- get to know more about me. *http://about.me/rahiminkara * this list is being *watched.*

Wazi Wifi
by Paul Kevin 08 Nov '11

08 Nov '11

Hi, So another issue I have come to see with Wazi Wifi. First I must say they have excellent services and the log on page looks better with the terms and conditions at the top. My only and most singular issue is the new feature they have added : You cannot use the log on on another comp. Let me explain. I bought a bundle this morning on my laptop, now I am in the office and using office internet. Somebody at home wants to use my wazi wifi log in credentials to access the internet but they cant. Apparently, each account is limited to one device....you cannot use it on any other device. So if I have my tablet, I need to get it its own wazi wifi. Same to my phone, computer and laptop. Thats 4 wazi wifi accounts, monthly thats 2K just to access net from devices that I may not even be using. I wont call it a smart move, but the way it was before was way better, efficient and logical. Say my laptop gets spoilt or stolen, does this mean no internet for me and my money gone? Never limit a service to one device especially if it involves communication. If all phones acted this way, we would be having 10 phones by now. So please, Riyaz and the Wazi Wifi team, give the customer what they want or we will look for other alternatives

Zuku's Cisco Router sucks or is it just mine ??
by TheBigBoss 08 Nov '11

08 Nov '11

I am now with Zuku Internet (Turbo 4). I have an issue with the Cisco Router they gave me. Signal is very weak as I can't pass 30 feet (wall or no wall); as soon as I exceed 30 ft, I get a 0 RSSI !! Q1/ Is it just me or is Cisco Router given by Zuku "taka taka" With Access Kenya's Alavrion router, I was getting a strong signal both upstair and downstair (I stay in a duplex appartment)...But Zuku's technician told me he can do nothing with the Alvarion because it is not compatible with Zuku's router ? Q2/ Is it true that Alvarion's router can not be set up as an access point or repeater of Cisco router ? Q3/ Then, what would be my option to get full coverage upstair and downstair. Looking for a cheap option. Technician told me I need to buy another Linksys Wireless-G router ? Thanks -- TheBigBoss Nairobi, Kenya Email: TheBigBoss(a)peperuka.com ________________________________
