Hi Rahim, What is it that wi-free does? Perhaps you can make some of us understand that first before we can chip in with suggestions. On 20 May 2013 11:45, Watchman <skunkingrahim@gmail.com> wrote:

@Riyaz, BUT I WANNTT ITT!!!! PUH LEEEAASSSEEE!!! hehe. The work we're doing within our groups requires some content that's blocked on youtube by region. At first, I was using the VPN created by wi-free for this. Later on, I came across the Orange hack and started using it as in MSA. well this was for two months. So I'm back to using the paid orange service in MSA, we were and still are using Zuku 6th Parklands and Orange has been constant in Karen. It's obvious that there's a strangled connection regardless of the Fiber landing in Kenya. And there's clearly going to be a long explanation coming through from someone justifying why it's not available everywhere and what the reason for slow speeds are. Thing is, there's technologies out there that are providing a better service either for free of for pocket friendly prices like wi-free. What i'm asking for now, is simple. I will work with either network and would like to redirect via the VPN so that I can access two things and not be blocked by the ISP in question saying it's illegal. Can Zuku or Orange provide a service via these VPN's for clients? Mombasa's my primary concern. Despite the fiber landing there, I keep getting told there's no infrastructure to handle it. If I'm paying for a service, I believe it's my choice whether I use it as you're providing it or use a different route in accessing my choice of receivables. To make it clear, Please let me know if this is possible. If not, please explain why. Here's my question. If i'm paying for Zuku, I'd like to be able to log on to the Zuku network and then use wi-free for example to get on to their servers and access their t1 or t3 connections via Zuku. Does this increase my bandwidth usage via UDP connectivity for you? and Is it costing you extra? My locations are 6th Parklands ( Zuku ) , Karen Marula Lane ( Orange & Safaricom )and Moi Ave. MSA. ( orange ) @Odhiambo, Long time brother. Keeping well I Hope. Wi-free works off different protocols on networks creating a VPN with the Wi-Free servers allowing a user to 1. Get Inaccessible content for different regions ( in my case, this is one of it's uses ) 2. have The possibility of better throughput using these servers, VPN and protocols. . * * *W.* On Mon, May 20, 2013 at 12:06 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Rahim, What is it that wi-free does?

Hi Rahim, If I understand VPN well, I suppose there is no way the ISP is supposed to know what content you are carrying. You can have your VPN traffic compressed/encrypted and the ISP will not even have a smell of it. What is a VPN? I'll leave that question for you to answer:-) What stops you from using Wi-free with paid connections? That is one thing that I still don't understand, and perhaps I don't even want to. I don't think you need to discuss anything VPN with the ISP as theirs is to give you the pipe to push your data through, ama? Anyway, to answer your question on VPN, my colleague uses one provider in the US which then makes his MacBook Pro (I had to mention this to get at you!) be part of their US network. I believe that is what you need. He tells me there are many such providers. For the one he uses, he says he pays a subscription fee of USD 100 per year. I haven't gone into the (in)efficiencies of the service, but I know he uses it to watch video streams (US TV ) and download movies so it must be very good. If you feel I must push him to give me the details of this particular one he uses, let me know. On 20 May 2013 12:44, Watchman <skunkingrahim@gmail.com> wrote:

@Odhiambo That is pretty much the same concept behind using wi-free. In addition, it does allow better speeds as well. Maybe that's where the problem lies? * * *W* On Mon, May 20, 2013 at 1:38 PM, Haggai Nyang <haggai.nyang@gmail.com>wrote:

I understand the 'being part of the US network' part and being able to access their content based on the VPN. However, I still dont get how that will improve speeds. If the connectivity from local provider is poor, shouldn't the vpn speeds be affected as well? On Mon, May 20, 2013 at 2:03 PM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:

If I understand VPN well, I suppose there is no way the ISP is supposed to know what content you are carrying. You can have your VPN traffic compressed/encrypted and the ISP will not even have a smell of it. What is a VPN? I'll leave that question for you to answer:-)
What stops you from using Wi-free with paid connections? That is one thing that I still don't understand, and perhaps I don't even want to. I don't think you need to discuss anything VPN with the ISP as theirs is to give you the pipe to push your data through, ama?
Anyway, to answer your question on VPN, my colleague uses one provider in the US which then makes his MacBook Pro (I had to mention this to get at you!) be part of their US network. I believe that is what you need. He tells me there are many such providers. For the one he uses, he says he pays a subscription fee of USD 100 per year. I haven't gone into the (in)efficiencies of the service, but I know he uses it to watch video streams (US TV ) and download movies so it must be very good. If you feel I must push him to give me the details of this particular one he uses, let me know.

The work we're doing within our groups requires some content that's blocked on youtube by region. At first, I was using the VPN created by wi-free for this. Later on, I came across the Orange hack and started using it as in MSA. well this was for two months. So I'm back to using the paid orange service in MSA, we were and still are using Zuku 6th Parklands and Orange has been constant in Karen.
It's obvious that there's a strangled connection regardless of the Fiber landing in Kenya.
And there's clearly going to be a long explanation coming through from someone justifying why it's not available everywhere and what the reason for slow speeds are. Thing is, there's technologies out there that are providing a better service either for free of for pocket friendly prices like wi-free.
What i'm asking for now, is simple. I will work with either network and would like to redirect via the VPN so that I can access two things and not be blocked by the ISP in question saying it's illegal. Can Zuku or Orange provide a service via these VPN's for clients?
Mombasa's my primary concern. Despite the fiber landing there, I keep getting told there's no infrastructure to handle it.
If I'm paying for a service, I believe it's my choice whether I use it as you're providing it or use a different route in accessing my choice of receivables. To make it clear, Please let me know if this is possible. If not, please explain why.
Here's my question. If i'm paying for Zuku, I'd like to be able to log on to the Zuku network and then use wi-free for example to get on to their servers and access their t1 or t3 connections via Zuku. Does this increase my bandwidth usage via UDP connectivity for you? and Is it costing you extra?
My locations are 6th Parklands ( Zuku ) , Karen Marula Lane ( Orange & Safaricom )and Moi Ave. MSA. ( orange )
@Odhiambo, Long time brother. Keeping well I Hope. Wi-free works off different protocols on networks creating a VPN with the Wi-Free servers allowing a user to
1. Get Inaccessible content for different regions ( in my case, this is one of it's uses ) 2. have The possibility of better throughput using these servers, VPN and protocols. . * * *W.*
