I'm not happy with my Internet speed and I think I'm paying too much for it compared with other countries. My Internet Service provides me with 8 mbps however the download speed is consistently below 8 mbps, like 7.5 plus. The upload speed is consistently under 1mbps. Cost of the service is approx. 100USD.
In the UAE we only have two services: Etisalat (belongs to the Government) and du. My service is with the devil I know - Etisalat. Just noticed that its competitor, du, has a package for 16 mbps with 4 mbps upload speed. However, it's such a bloody pain to actually get the service to be installed, either with Etisalat or du. So who knows, probably better to stick with the devil I know.
How about you. Do you also have broadband where you are? Are you happy with the service? And do you think you're paying a reasonable price for what you are getting?
