I don't get this balooo.... Networks cost money. Internet as a service has never been guaranteed. Your job as a consumer is to find out from the service provider based on your service needs how well their network is done, is it redundant, is DNS properly distributed? Etc etc. Or pay for dedicated point to point services and ask and pay for an SLA. While this could be an awareness issue, you still in the end get what you pay for. I like safaricom in this case because I know how far they go to ensure people have good services. Even when its bad, i know how badly people feel and work to get things sorted. Scan this list and notice apart from someone with an issue on the last mile, they had some level of service during this outage period. No one will ever give an SLA to the 'Internet'. If they do they'd be lying. You however can diligently get and if you ask a good ISP will explain their network in detail. The same logic applies for any service like cloud etc. ask questions or get/pay someone to ask them for you:-) Gitau Sent from my iPad On 14 Mar 2012, at 16:14, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com> wrote:
So you'll not be compensated at all for any lossed incident upon the fiber cuts / downtimes. We are in Kenya, remember? No SLAs, unless you are very BIG and pay $$$$$$ for your link.

I bet the response from most of them on this would be "huh? what?"

Im not just saying this for talk's sake. That safcom network is really something to write/talk about . As far as redundancy and capacity is concerned, no one I know in this region rivals it.
No offence, but am a Safaricom Wimax customer and i have had a number of interruptions this morning.
Traceroutes are on and off. In some instances despite traceroutes working, browsing, skype, etc are timing out.
Anyways what to do?
