I don't understand...

one-third of Lebanon's approximately 300,000 residential Internet customers connect to the Web illegally
i don't understand what they mean here...secretly splice cable and hook up their modem? or any connection with upload above 32kbit is considered illegal?

No, they are too busy searching old folks in the airport and letting middle eastern looking people walk through.

Re: skype

32 kbps is the "56k" upload rate on a good day.

Want to see what the outside plant looks like?

Well, at least it's not really confusing.

Re: skype

I'm guessing the folks near the boarder gets wifi signals from neighboring countries.

Maybe businesses gets faster access and people surf at work or they set up hotspots.

Reason,

This is the reason that we have nothing to fear IN THE LONG TERM from these bass ackwards middle eastern sh!tholes. Once their people learn what is really happening in the rest of the world, they will play hell trying to keep the populace happy!!

Just a thought,

I don't think my broadband sucks

Yep. I have ATT 6mb at home and Sprint EVDO for the road. Both are great.

Could be faster and cheaper but nothing to cry over.

Re: I don't think my broadband sucks

if BBR was based on S. Korea or Japan then they would post .. " think your broadband stinks.. look at USA where the most 768 kbps as broadband".. I dont understand why are we looking at low when our goal should be high.. I guess its makes us feel good for few seconds..

I agree, why are we comparing to Lebanon? US broadband should be comparing to the top like S.Korea and Japan.
