ADSL, yes. But the cost for leased circuits in Senegal are much more expensive. Approximately $600/512kbps when I implemented tail end of last year. On Thu, September 23, 2010 3:34 am, Nnenna Nwakanma wrote:
Take the case of the US for instance. 1 Mb (dedicated) is going for less than $50.in Kenya, it's anything between $500-$800. If the ISPs lowered these rates and leveraged on the numbers (and be innovative around the last mile issue), they will have more users, and Kenyans being industrious as we always are- will roll out VoIP services, etc
1Mb in Cote d'Ivore is now down to 80 USD. In Senegal, it is about 50.
So, Dkt. Ndemo, stick to your guns.these rates must come down!
