Browsing, Facebook, Twitter and any other app that consumes bandwidth is unlimited. As far as I know, the YouTube app is the only one that consumes your credit. I have a streaming app (DI Radio) that doesn't consume any cash outside the 1K. HTH Sent from my BlackBerry Torch®

I have a disappointed roaming customer. Any help from the skunkworks army will be appreciated. Simply - while roaming out of the country (and its often), he can't send email, but can receive, and cant call, but can receive sms. Any help guys?

Hi Allan, Am told your dedicated link has been maxing all through the entire duration. Please check your LAN, guys doing *torrents *sites are the most likely cause of the slow link. Do you have tools on your LAN that can monitor traffic type and source at the gateway? This would help to un-earth the problem.

The best ISP for my location
by Allan Ouma 04 Aug '11

04 Aug '11

Hello good people, I need some good advice for a good ISP who can give me a reliable fibre connection at my office. I am located at Vision Plaza, Mombasa Road and was using Access Kenya and they have already proved to be very very worthless providers since i keep fighting their technicians over my bandwidth allocation. Please provide me with a list of ISPs I can use since my nature of business involves heavy uploading and downloading that needs a very good and reliable connection. Please advise. Thanks. Allan Ouma P.O. Box 12731 Nairobi 00400 Kenya
