Since internet came to Qatar in 1996/97 downloads speeds have been pathetic and still are relative to what you see in the USA. Just got back from USA and the internet was faster than I could work. Very frustrating to have to wait and wait with the new wireless modem. Also why oh why did Qtel managment opt for this incredibly inconvenient 800 QR USB modem that hangs by a wire out of the USB port when PCS data cards have been in existence for years? data cards are compact and a FAR better option that USB modems. Classic QTel in making us all pay for the USB , THEN bring out the data cards at a later date. Right? That way we all have to shell out 1600 QR instead of 800.
