Going Wireless
Let me state first that "Going Wireless" is an option freely promoted but never achieved or maintained in this country due to the divisive nature of our politics and interference from India and China.
The range of wireless coverage is poor and not inclusive, in spite of being a island nation.
We should have made satellite communication a goal but India and China are interested due to our strategic nature of our Geo-Position or location.
Quiet accidentally in nineteen eighties, I happen to be protecting a satellite due to be launched by organization spearheaded by 42 countries in the name of I.M.M.I (later became IWMA).
It was sabotaged by India using D.J.V (in the South) as proxy, just like it sabotaged Tamil community (in the North) in this country using L.T.T.E.
I advise President Donald Trump not to believe Indian politicians just like he does not believe in Chinese politicians.
My solution is satellite communication (mind you space is supposed to be non politicized) not wired communication with few heavy duty wireless towers.
Coming to wireless suppliers we have two good local commercial institutes, namely Dialog and Lanka Bell.
I must say I hate Telecoms and Mobitel which was ruined by M.S. and his brother D.S.
They could not provide us rice without contamination of five or more varieties of chemical poisons.
So how come they advance solid trusted technology service?
Lanka Bell started with CDMA and it provides a good service for the needy.
It also has a new broadband and mobile router with a rechargeable battery.
The Mobile routers is only Rs.2000/= higher (if you consider the inflation it is cheaper) less than my first solid wireless router I used as a battery charger for my phones with a Ethernet card jacked in with an appropriate (I collected these items when I go to Singapore. They are piled up like our limes and lemons in the market place) plug in jack.
Dialog has a big broadband which is pretty good but do not have a battery and needs to be plugged in to an electricity socket (no wireless connection when electricity is down).
In need 24/7 service and in that sense Lanka Bell tops the list of mobility and 24/7 service.
Peo TV costs four times the Dialog bottom line service.
Lanka Bell is even cheaper and one pays for the data one uses without "Time Constriction" which all prepaid services charge you.
I use a Mobitel SIM ( I was one of its original customers, until Sira came in to ruin it) to link with my bank both by wired and wireless connection.
In fact, I lost my bank card lately, and that day I could not ring the services in Colombo (later found that the telephone wire was savaged by the local road developers and Telecoms failed to repair it in spite of informing disconnection) to deactivate my accounts.
The Mobitel router is a cheap Chinese duplicate with Ethernet wires get glued to the set and difficult to dislodge.
Now I will wind up saying that I upgraded my tablet and Android game console using Dialog broad band and Wingle wireless services.
I will use Lanka Bell on the move.
We do not need Indian or Chines or Middle East suppliers in this country if we support Lanka Bell and Dialog from resources wasted by Telecoms and Mobitel.
Hang Telecoms and Mobitel which are political institutions.
