I will let you in on something.. the cable only sucks here in Kuwait.. In America the fiber optics were great, what now takes me 2 days to downloiad only took me 10 minutes in the states.. So I think of downing the product, we should look at the providers, you know what I mean ;-) about the fiber optics.. I will let you in on something.. the cable only sucks here in Kuwait..
