In theory we are connected to this here in Rwanda (via Uganda). In practice it seems the ISPs are unwilling to pay for the bandwidth so our connectivity ranges from ok to unusable. Having said that, things have improved enormously over the last few years, and maybe it just takes a while for customer expectations to adjust, and competition amongst ISPs to develop.
