That is a company somehow affiliated to KDN who installed the fibre in Runda and runs now the fibre network. Annoying is to pay KShs 29.000 to get the fibre into yr house and then the service doesnt work

Hi Gerhard,That really cracked me up...Who is Teledesic again? I think the only lesson we listers can learn from your experience is to work with slightly better known names, not always a good way to evaluate service but hey I may be wrong..All the best with your search, try Access, Safaricom( I knowwww) or Zuku.Rgds,EmmanuelOn Mon, Feb 14, 2011 at 3:16 PM, Gerhard May <gerhard.may@gmail.com> wrote:
This message was sent to: oloo.khisa@gmail.comi have fibre to my home in Runda fr Icon Teledesic. The service availability is less then 20% in the last 8 weeks and speed got very slow. Predominantly less than 100kb/s. Need to look for an alternative solution.
Gerhard MaySafaricom WiMax works beautifully for my home link, now considering taking them up in the office to replace the unreliable Orange DeadBox.RegardsRobert Yawe

Subject: [kictanet] Internet to the HomeListers,
Just wanted to share an observation that despite the hype that fibre had arrived on the Kenyan coast, it seems to be taking long for Broadband to arrive in residential homes! I see cable installation everywhere, but I have not come across a provider aggressively advertising to Kenyans for broadband to the homes. Am I living in my own world?
Anyone has an idea of a reliable provider with clean bandwidth to homes (not the “bamba” type connections)
Edith
