Re: Internet Speed
Thanks Suzuki for sharing the Kenyan experience. We also plan to use Gsm modems which are largely branded as HSPA modems.However only about 5% of the coverage is 3G largely in the urban areas while most of the districts only have Edge/Gprs coverage with speeds hovering around 20kpbs. It is good to hear you had no issues with data entry within Edge coverage areas. ISPs are largely outsourced and we seem to get only what trickles down after all the routing Jason explained.

Hello Adedapo,
We, Kenya, use wireless modem which called 3G+ (HSPA) and 3G (EDGE) and
serviced by best effort. This means 7.2 Mbps (HSPA)or 384Kbps (EDGE) maximum
speed. Usual speed is not so high even 3G+ area, like 100 Kbps or 200Kbps.
When we went to lower speed area (EDGE), it is hard to use GIS capability,
but there are no problem on other area like as data entry. This EDGE
supposed to be 40 Kbps or around for average.
Hope this help you.
