I applied on the 25th of last month and I've been calling them everyday since last week... apparently, they've run out of ports in my area and need to install something called a cabinet. It was stupid of them not to have realized that in advance. I work at home need internet connection desperately. The only reason I'm still with etisalat is coz there is no one else providing internet service in my area. Du doesn't cover the area yet. I'm starting to loathe etisalat for monopolizing the market.
I've requested my application to be stamped urgent, filed a complaint... what can I really do to get these guys off their butts and actually do something?!
I call them everyday, sometimes left on hold for over an hour... I already have a complain filed... no news of a followup either!
Do you agree that people who download music should have their internet connections terminated?

Music fans who repeatedly download songs illegally should have their internet connections severed, the manager of U2 has said.
Paul McGuinness, who has managed the best-selling group for 30 years, attacked internet service providers for failing to clamp down on illegal file-sharing.
He said the refusal of internet firms to punish those who download music without paying was "the single biggest failure in the digital music market".
He called on them to adopt a "three strikes and you're out" enforcement policy under which illegal downloaders would have to start paying for music or face having their ISP subscriptions terminated.

Man described as a top spammer arrested
By GENE JOHNSON, AP Legal Affairs WriterThu May 31, 8:02 AM ET
A 27-year-old man described as one of the world's most prolific spammers was arrested Wednesday, and federal authorities said computer users across the Web could notice a decrease in the amount of junk e-mail.
Robert Alan Soloway is accused of using networks of compromised "zombie" computers to send out millions upon millions of spam e-mails.
"He's one of the top 10 spammers in the world," said Tim Cranton, a Microsoft Corp. lawyer who is senior director of the company's Worldwide Internet Safety Programs. "He's a huge problem for our customers. This is a very good day."
A federal grand jury last week returned a 35-count indictment against Soloway charging him with mail fraud, wire fraud, e-mail fraud, aggravated identity theft and money laundering.
Soloway pleaded not guilty Wednesday afternoon to all charges after a judge determined that — even with four bank accounts seized by the government — he was sufficiently well off to pay for his own lawyer.
He has been living in a ritzy apartment and drives an expensive Mercedes convertible, said prosecutor Kathryn Warma. Prosecutors are seeking to have him forfeit $773,000 they say he made from his business, Newport Internet Marketing Corp.
A public defender who represented him for Wednesday's hearing declined to comment.
Prosecutors say Soloway used computers infected with malicious code to send out millions of junk e-mails since 2003. The computers are called "zombies" because owners typically have no idea their machines have been infected.
He continued his activities even after Microsoft won a $7 million civil judgment against him in 2005 and the operator of a small Internet service provider in Oklahoma won a $10 million judgment, prosecutors said.
U.S. Attorney Jeff Sullivan said Wednesday that the case is the first in the country in which federal prosecutors have used identity theft statutes to prosecute a spammer for taking over someone else's Internet domain name. Soloway could face decades in prison, though prosecutors said they have not calculated what guideline sentencing range he might face.
The investigation began when the authorities began receiving hundreds of complaints about Soloway, who had been featured on a list of known spammers kept by The Spamhaus Project, an international anti-spam organization.
The Santa Barbara County, Calif., Department of Social Services said it was spending $1,000 a week to fight the spam it was receiving, and other businesses and individuals complained of having their reputations damaged when it appeared spam was originating from their computers.
"This is not just a nuisance. This is way beyond a nuisance," Warma said.
Soloway used the networks of compromised computers to send out unsolicited bulk e-mails urging people to use his Internet marketing company to advertise their products, authorities said.
People who clicked on a link in the e-mail were directed to his Web site. There, Soloway advertised his ability to send out as many as 20 million e-mail advertisements over 15 days for $495, the indictment said.
The Spamhaus Project rejoiced at his arrest.
"Soloway has been a long-term nuisance on the Internet — both in terms of the spam he sent, and the people he duped to use his spam service," organizers wrote on Spamhaus.org.
Soloway remained in federal detention pending a hearing Monday.
I'm looking for a laptop for my mom who has zero knowledge about computers-- the main purpose is for her to use it to communicate with her children and grandchildren through chatting, VOIP, webcams and the like. She's staying at her patient's house most of the time so she needs wireless internet service. What she hopes to get is a laptop that's ultra user friendly: a laptop that she'll just have to flip open, instantly connects to the internet, and will just allow her to click at the icons on her screen and communicate. She doesn't care much for any other feature that a laptop might have. So what's the best laptop in the market right now that fits my mom's criteria and brings the most bang for the buck?

I am looking for marketing help with my Internet service, MobileTravelogue.com. Although based in the UK the service is global and has many possibilities in terms of target markets. Not being a marketing expert myself I would like assistance from someone with experience.
I'll be starting an online business, but I want to do some thorough research into the success of current sites which are popular online. I'd like access to the most thorough information possible about web traffic online. Basically sites/services like Nielsen Net Ratings where I can get detailed information. I know Alexa.com is another site which collects and publishes info. I need to put together a toolbox of the most effective of these types of resources related to the internet industry. Also dempgraphic information is important. I'm going to need this information for marketing, and also for drawing up my business plan, and more. What sites do the professionals use to get their information about the business of internet?
Thanks for the Google Analytics answer...I'm still hunting though for information which will tell me about activity elsewhere on the internet, like top-rated sites, internet activity & top sites per industry, fastest growing new sites, etc.
I have found some more information myself: hitwise.com, nielsen net ratings, and Jupiter Research are all along the lines of what I'm looking for...are these the best? are there any more? Any internet professionals out there willing to share their acquired wisdom?

A friend of mine wants to get on line but does not have a lot of money. What is the absolute cheapest internet service on the market today? Are there still dial up internet providers around?
need help. never took marketing and my business needs a jump start. it is a delivery service.
For example, would you rather get an email offering you a product, or an offer from the US Postal Service? It seems today there are so many more options on the internet to shop, it might be wiser to go ahead and open the email ad-types, as long as they DO NOT have attachments...all of us know to watch out for strange emails with attachments...they could have viruses. I am trying out my own internet business and could use feedback regarding newsletters, for instance about my site called: Special Home Products.
Do me a big favor in the meantime, and check it out...any suggestions or comments on it would be appreciated!
OK, like the responses I am getting, but still unsure which would be the best to use to promote a new business....let me hear from some more of you out there!
