It is a zyxel P 2602 H D1A. can anyone help me find out if it is no problem to use this in Uganda? (I have got no idea whether things are different, like wires or things). Does anyone know?

They are not too expensive, ones from Holland could work in Uganda etc. etc. The problem is getting an internet connection with it. Eddy mentioned having a regular phone connection, but will probably have to register for internet access as well, once he gets a foreign modem. If it's a regular phone line this may give him a connection of maximum 56kb per second. Most of the time it will be slower. (For those in Holland: remember dialing in to your provider, waiting for pages to load? Internet 10 years ago. That's the speed) What's in the 250 USD deal? The 250 USD deal includes a modem (the HuaWei), which is actually an advanced phone that connects to the internet (wireless broadband). This modem is indeed about 60 USD. Having this modem, Eddy would still need to subscribe with an internet provider which costs 190 USD for the wireless broadband. The monthly fee will then be around 25 USD (90,000 UGX if I'm not mistaken).
