DataNet don't charge for local data links, as long as you of course originating from their infrastructure, I get 5Mb link to most my DataNet clients without an issue.

The fact that ISPs charge the same for local data and actual internet access. Am I wrong in thinking local data should be cheaper?

Just it's faster and you ease congestion? Neil On Jul 23, 2013 9:15 PM, "James S. K.

Its like buying a Bugatti Veyron to test on Kampala road. Currently paying 300k to Orange for 512kbps.. and our ministry with over 250 users has only 5mbps...its a ridiculous.
