<p>Walu,</p>
<p>Happy New Year :)</p>
<p>Sounds like January financial afflictions are with many of us :)</p>
<p>Can someone explain why "TEAMS" would affect local loop networks?</p>
<p>Surely "Go.Ke" servers must be on local networks even if there are international backups/instances of Go.KE PUBLIC Content.</p>
