Ooops thanks guys, almost missed the feedback.
Thanks again and I confirm tests do indeed show:

1) Faiba as fastest in Cable with only 4 users sharing their 10mbps connection that goes for 10,000/= monthly. They also seem to have a quiet 5,000/= monthly option

2) Orange wireless Black modems very fast. In fact speed almost equivalent to Cable. They have introduced a new 3,000/= unlimited offer with fair usage policy.


Though offering tri-play and reasonable, Zuku was a bit disappointing because their 8mbps shared connection is between 20 people. 7.2mpbs speed to their office but a paltry 560kbps to Internet (US).


Zuku, Faiba, and other Fibre Cable variants

They have just appointed a new CEO http://www.capitalfm.co....-appoints-alden-new-ceo

I hope he will give value for money.They previously had a product called T1 which they 'improved' and re-designated R1. T1 price was ksh 1,799, R1 is ksh 2,999. The two products are exactly the same.

I have abandoned them and restarted my DSTV compact that gives better value for money. If the new CEO wants me back, Zuku should return T1 and provide a wireless router like they do for R4 and R8.
