A comparision of the DSL cost in Kuwait. The costs are comparitivly OK. however, it looks like the KEMS is almost double in cost comparing the other providers, i don't know if the prices mentioned in thier website is old. I have experiance with QualityNet and they seems to be good most of the time.
The price mentioned below is in KWD for one year subscriptions
Update: I just have been notified by someone that the KEMS rates are changed. The changes are reflected below. The interesting thing is that the 256 and 512 KB lines will cost the same (135) and the connections with speed 5 mbps to 8 mbps will cost the same that is 599 per annum

Hi,
I have been using KEMS for about a year now and seems to be good enough and it has never gone down. I had paid just KWD 70 for 256kbps for a one year subscription, don't remember if there was an offer then.
However, when I clicked on the KEMS link from your post, I could see that the price for 256kbps and 512kbps seems to be the same. So I assume there could be some error in pricing.
Here's the link to Qualitynet
(kbps)
@ bitey Yeah, may be I am worng in getting the correct link. The cost seems to be higher than what their other page is refering to. hmm interesting
