At long last we are connected at home.

Mobilnil covers our area. Last night we had 96% signal with great speeds.

What they don't advertise is the fact that as a foreigner it will cost an extra 400 for the line. As the lad behind the desk said, well you could just jump on a plane and disappear!

Now that our laptop has been wiped and re-installed twice, hopefully we won't have too many more problems.

Buying a monitor as our screen keeps flickering and cutting out. Like me I think the laptop is over the hill. We bought it before coming here to Egypt.

Brilliant Semsema, how much did it all cost? Is it the little box like I had from Etisalat? What speed is it? I have found that I am not on 6G but 1G, hubby got it totally wrong the 6G is the amount aloud to download in a month, don't really understand it all, not sure if it is G or M :oops:

The wee box cost 900 LE but being 'foreign' I also had to pay 400 for the line.

Download of 3 giga a month. As we don't really download things, I don't think we will use that capacity.

Speed last night was 350 bps.
