Hello people, Is there a service provide in KE who can give me an Int'l link with a reliably good quality? I am having a problem with some colleagues in Europe who have said that the line quality of my KDN Link is crap. See attached. I have contacted KDN, via e-mail, about this but they wouldn't respond at all. I have a 512Kbps (burstable to 1024) with them but there is no SLA anyway. I am now looking for a provider who can guarantee me a clean link, with an SLA. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube

The line quality of KDN is on something called shared network that means you can not blame kdn becoz you don't hv SLA.what you need is a dedicated service its cost like 128-256 =around 10,000 256-512=around 16,000 512-1mbs=33,000 1mbps=55,000 these you are given a direct line from the isp provider its called premier late service(PLS) On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 12:54 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:

Very nice response there. At the very first instance, I was paying KDN US$ 1,189 for a dedicated 512Kbps link! When Seacom Fiber landed, KDN approached me and gave this "offer that seemed too good" and I subscribed. I was now going to pay KDN US$ 348 every month for the link, which they said is still a "dedicated service" but on Seacom Fiber. At no point did we talk about a "shared" link with KDN. Am I being fooled by KDN, or am I simply daft? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "If you have nothing good to say about someone, just shut up!." -- Lucky Dube

that is normally confusing and provide take advantage of it, watch on the key words, like shared, up to....kbs, dedicated. but Washington has good advice so far, ask for a Demo involving you euro colleagues before you sign with the guys but so far dude KDN is NOPE almost an elder brother of Orange/ Telkom On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 1:34 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:
