JTL is okay for uptime, but they too sometimes have poor service.

Is the 5mbps speed fast enough for streaming?

It should be , but as always with this connections, the sharing ratio is what determines how good the connection is.

Used to have 10Mbps very good at streaming but when they increased the speeds to 15mbps and forced us to 'upgrade' i reversed to 1mbps Triple play and I am still able to stream my matches. It depends on the location because it is shared

If its triple play on satellite, then your choices are pretty much limited , if its triple play on fiber then most routers would do. For your downstairs and upstairs just get an extender to extend your range ( or install an access point upstairs)

Does ZUKU have triple play on satellite?
Zuku has had very bad service and most guys using it as it is maybe the only fiber service in their locations as soon as others come eg faiba, liquid or saf most migrate

1,200 if not triple play, hence comes as internet only. I saw this package in eastlands a while ago.

I think it is only available in Eastlands (specifically in Umoja and it's environs). Word is they refused for the Tv + Calls + Internet combo because they have their "home grown" solution for tv (story for another day).

Anyone who knows any other area with Internet only (Zuku)??
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Hey Zuku is not treating his customers as it should be. I had the same problem with them, now I am fine, recently bought a new router www.router-reset.com and it work very well, no need for Zuku service anymore. In the instruction of the router installation there is a QR code that is moving you to a site which helps you to install in 3 different ways the modem. Now if I have a problem I can fix it by myself without calling anyone, and sometimes asking on forum for help. But I am doing everything by myself thank to that QR code.
