Telkom beaten by a pigeon?
Most people have by now heard the news of the pigeon called Winston. A certain company decided to finally test the speed of Telkoms ADSL service by racing their own pigeon 'Winston' against the download speed of Telkoms ADSL line. The idea was to place the data on a memory card and attach it to the pigeon who would then fly from point A to point B. During the flight the company would start a download of the same file via the ADSL line. The size of the file was quite large and, of course, the pigeon won.
A lot of people complain about the Telkom service but I for one find it suitable for my needs. If I was using mission critical equipment I may find another service provider. Satellite Broadband Internet would probably be my choice over regular ADSL.
Satellite Broadband Internet is not new. It is a very reliable form of Broadband and different to the norm. It can also be a lot faster than regular broadband. You can even choose a mobile option called BGan. This is a device which I have mentioned numerous times in my blog. You may not recognise the name but if you have ever watched CNN and seen a reporter reporting live from Iraq or Afghanistan live via satellite, chances are, that he or she is using the BGan to stream live video. For more info about BGan you can visit our BGan website.
