In Jamuhuri/Kilimani Belt, Am on the 8Mbps connection ..... Thing is this people dont tell you accurately what 8Mbps means. Its 8 to the local servers. Internationally, depends on the server you are accessing. I get anywhere between 1 - 5mbps on a good day. Regards, On 11 September 2012 17:50, Brian Ngure <brian@pixie.co.ke> wrote:
I'm on 8. Average speedtest is 0.02 to 0.2mbps. Sometimes it is good, but that is once in a blue moon. Then I get maybe 1mbps.

Zuku's fair use policy is so vague and trying to get answers from them about it is like trying to get blood out of a stone.

They have a fair use policy which stipulates the advertised speed is only to their local data centers and international bandwith is shared. http://zuku.co.ke/triple-play/fair-usage-policy.html assume the bigger the package the higher the throttling cap. So if I sign up for the 8mps I will/should get higher than 30kBps when throttled.

Then an upgrade won't help you.
And technically if on your contract never said anything about throttling speeds, that is not offering the Internet by definition:-).
But no one seems to get this argument so I just let it be. An upgrade won't help unless they offer you more than 30kbps, which would make it the bandwidth you actually pay for not a 1mbps.
Last time I checked zuku has no fair use policy like safaricom who has theirs defined for customers.

@benjamin am on the 1mbps package and they keep throttling me after a while to 30kBps. Will upgrade next month.
