Re: [Skunkworks] ZUKU's FIBRE INTERNET SPEED RIP OFF!!
by Josh Handley 26 Apr '12

I have gotten close to 8mpbs (high 7's) with my Turbo 8 but only at off hours (like 4am). The bandwidth is shared so it depends who else in your neighborhood is online and what they are downloading. I have definitely noticed that lately in the evening my speed has dropped drastically compared to a few months back but it jumps back up after 11pm.

WPA2 and ipw2100
by Ndungi Kyalo 26 Apr '12

26 Apr '12

Hi Guys, Am having trouble connecting to a wireless network (am told it is a WPA2 TKIP+AES). From lspci, my wireless card is : 02:03.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04) Am on linux. Kernel 2.6.32. NEtwork manager identifies the network as WPA/WPA2 and requests for a password which I key in correctly but fails to authenticate. Other machines are able to authenticate succesfully on this same network without any hitch. I also installed the latest ipw2100 drivers and firmware lakini wapi. Heelp. -- Ndungi Kyalo neno.co.ke ~ Your word O Lord, lights my path.

OT - Why are we killing Kenya in the name of bashing & blaming each other
by TheMburu George 26 Apr '12

26 Apr '12

Hey skunks Just noted there is a lot of bashing all over the country .ke blaming the fault on others in-comptence. For instance, techies here bash/blame (MNO's) Safaricom, YU, Airtel etc for their services and in-competence of systems, the same guys, citizens plus MNO guys blame & bash City councils on incompetence and service levels, we all go ahead blame KPLC for the same incompetence and services levels, among those doing the bashing are our own Police service who we again blame and bash for incompetence, then it shifts to blaming constructors for roads and buildings etc, just but to mention the circle. The road accidents are on the rise, then we start blaming matatu and PSV vehicle drivers who again blame 'watu wa personal' then probox drivers! I mean aren't we the same people in these different organisation or case and does it show we are just an incompetent country and lay the blame on others. Me thots thats been back on my mind and not making me watch news! -- Conservatism is the adherence to the old tried against the new untried.
