Hi John, I have been experiencing the same with Zuku. On pinging www.zuku.co.ke I was getting 48% packet loss. Zuku responded to my query by saying everything was ok. That my connection was perfect. Go figure... On Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 2:00 PM, John Gitau <jgitau@gmail.com> wrote:

aiyaiyaiiii I think i want an ISP with a custom package that sells me internet in a way I can make choices on when to complain. While I understand ínternet is an amorphous thing I buy, losing 25% of all my international packets is ridiculous.
