fun filled afternoon today when talking to a customer care lady at Safcom.
Conversation went as follows:
Me: Miss, my data seems a bit slow. Is there any chance i'm not rec'ving the full 3G speeds? CC: Are you on a 3G enabled device? Me: Yes, the phone i purchased is a 3G phone. CC: I see, and how long has the issue been there? Me: Since i subscribed to the 1 Week unlimited service. CC: Alright, are you sure it's a 3G phone? Me: Yes, i bought it from one of your outlets, it even shows me the 3G sign at the top. It's an Android phone. CC: Alright. And what seems to be the problem? I don't think we have an issue on our side. Me: The speeds are slow, is it possible there's a limitation on my sim or on the Data? CC: Allow me to check on that.
Interlude with music and some obnoxiously loud adverts.
CC: Thank you for holding sir. The technical department has said that if you open too many pages on your browser, the speeds may get slow, maybe you should close a few. Me: That's great but i'm not browsing using my phone, i've enabled the data and connected it via the modem so it's not opening any web pages, it's for downloading directly. CC: Yes, so close some windows. Me: Miss XXXX i am not browsing, there are no windows open. I'm downloading using an application and the sim card is in my modem. CC: ok so close some pages and i'll refresh your sim from here, maybe it'll be better. But many pages means it's going to be slow. Me: May i speak with a technical person? ... .. ... Dead air. ... ... CC: Alright, all done. Thank you for your patience. Will that be all? Me: :S... That's all. Thank you.

It's capped at 512 kbps (kilo bits per sec). I gathered that you maintain this data rate for too long it drops and reconnects again. On Oct 31, 2011 2:45 PM, "Bernard Mwagiru" <bmwagiru@gmail.com> wrote:
