Anyone from Access KE on list? got a question. I've been doing some research after my conversation with someone on Access KE support staff on phone regarding bandwidth. I found that there was a flaw with something i was told. I was informed that Wimax bandwidth cannot exceed 1.5Mb/s and as such i cannot receive more data on my connection, that would be why i am unable to get a better data speed even though access kenya are already on the fiber connection and are handling Fiber as resellers. To clarify this, i found : *WiMAX* (*Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access*) is a communication technology for wirelessly delivering high-speed Internet service to large geographical areas. The 2005 WiMAX revision providedbit rates <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_rate> up to 40 Mbit/s[1]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX#cite_note-0> [2] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX#cite_note-1> with the 2011 update up to 1 Gbit/s for fixed stations.[3]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WiMAX#cite_note-UQ-WiMAX2-test-2> It is a part of a “fourth generation,” or 4G<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4G>, of wireless-communication technology Please assist me in understanding why even though they have probably got 1 - 2 GB/s Data lying in their pipes, there is limited capacity being dished out. By my calculations, 1GB/s = 1000MB/s at which i'm considering, they're dishing out 1Mb/s per residential, if they have 10,000 residential clients, that makes 1000Mb/s = 100MB/s. 900MB/s = *WHAT THE HELL?* This is why *W.Isp *is under construction. -- get to know more about me. *http://about.me/rahiminkara * this list is being *watched.*
