By the way orange has its 3g gsm network up in the cbd! On 12/03/2010, aki <aki275@googlemail.com> wrote:
Before I went on my trip, things were not bad on the Orange network. Edge would give upto 20KBytes/Sec data trasnfer rates while 3G+ would sustain upto 35KBytes/Sec data tranfer rates. Been back for a few days and both their services are Edge 12-3KBytes/Sec while 3G+ is bursty around 8-18KBytes/Sec! Now they seem to be playing around with tcp window lengths and causing data issues. Its impossible to work remotely at these speeds rates.
Something is wrong in Kenya, especially with network services and the people given the responsibilty to maintain them. Why is it impossible for network operators to sustain data throughputs on reliable services? Why is too difficult to fix this problem? Why do we need to rant every few months and something gets done! This is BS...!! Just because Safcom has been operating data services on trial and experimental basis ever since it went on air does not mean other operators follow the Monkey See, Monkey Do behaviour.
Come on telcos... :-(
