@Hussam I honestly don't think that's an issue. Lebanon isn't using the entire bandwidth from the IMEWE & CADMOS submarine cables. In fact, Lebanon is only using a fraction of the bandwidth provided by these 2 cables and they can easily provide significantly more, provided that the Lebanese government pays more for the extra bandwidth, and that the bandwidth can be actually put to good use. Certainly paying for extra bandwidth isn't a good idea at this point in time because the infrastructure is so poor that it won't really transfer into faster speeds and higher caps.
Ok, thank you for explaining. Perhaps when they improve the infrastructure.
Right now Terra and Sodetel are licensed to import their own bandwidth to lower the load on Ogero. There is still a huge amount of 'cable guys' and they mostly get their bandwidth from Terra. If all 'cable guy' customers moved to Ogero, Ogero will have to purchase more bandwidth.
The issue in Lebanon is the lack of transparency. The government can probably afford to buy more bandwidth.
