    Best VPN/Tunnel Solution for VSAT (Yahsat)

    We have installed 20Mbps VSAT (YahClick) at one of our branches. Unfortunately, we are unable to get any IPsec tunnel working on it. OpenVPN does work from another branch, but even there it is extremely bad. We understand that tunnels do not benefit from acceleration techniques used for VSAT...

    Eswatini is launching an airline 23 years after Royal Swazi National Airways ceased flying

    Becoming a VoIP Provider

Just to clarify - this is for the country's POTS/PSTN provider, meaning inter-connecting with other providers is not an issue at all, as they already have PSTN infrastructure.

    Linux Cybercafe PCs

    Considering VOX VoIP offering

    I live outside SA, but have a special someone to keep in touch with there. I'll be calling their cellular number. I was considering VOX per minute calling option since I don't have a credit card for the likes of Freshphone. What are the experiences of others with VOX? Are there any other...
