<DIV>We will start on a very wrong note to suggest that each one of us should know somebody at the providers to be assisted in the event of a problem. These are not jua kali companies! we are looking at a subscriber base of 15million people if they were required to know somebody to be assisted then my guess will be same as mine.</DIV>

<DIV>Let the providers solve our problems without introducing the concept of knowing techies </DIV>

<DIV>Hi Robert,</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I sympathize with you. I have had similar problems with Safaricoms 3G service in my residential area, but when I engaged with Safaricoms tech personnel And reported the issues, I was amazed at the speedy response and quick turnaround in terms of optimizing the 3g in my area (it took less than 1hr to solve a problem that had been hounding myself and others in the same area for 4 days).</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I would suggest that you get in touch with their support, provide them with detailed information regarding the problem, eg latency between packets on a traceroute, GPS coordinates of your location etc...</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Best regards,</DIV>

Telkom on the issue of wired services, when are they likely to make this available outside the CBD as their are no copper cables in the residential areas or does Orange think that all our Nyumbas are in the CBD?<BR><BR>Have a bandwidth available week<BR><BR>Regards<BR>
