Internet Slowdown by COMPAQ(m): 5:50am On Mar 31, 2013 |
I had bee frustrated by rather slow internet speeds from my Telco, Etisalat, for a few days now, then I started to read about a "global internet slowdown" caused by cyber attacks by a company hoting spam companies and another company dedicated to slowdown the movement of spam. There have also been reports about an undersea cut of a cable connecting Egypt and India ( not sure if this would affect Nigeria though). Is anyone else out there in Nigeria experiencing frustratingly slow internet speeds? Or is it just etisalat? |

Hmmm, looks like I might have got part of my answer. The story in the link below specifically mentions Etisalat as the owner of the fibre optic cut, but would that slow down it's service in Nigeria? http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/global-internet-slowdown-india-largely-unaffected-says-kapil-sibal-347953 |
