Broadband Internet Nov 09, 2005
For residential internet use, what do most people in Dubai use and what are the charges per month?

Cable Broadband?
ADSL?
ISDN?
56K?

Right now im paying S$60 for a 6mpbs line. Which is like 120 AED.

I guess its expensive in UAE cus they only have one broadband ISP, I think its called Al Shamil or something. They have the right infrastructure it seems, but no competition.
