Internet accessibility

So, I'm kinda new here in Qatar. Wanted to know about the internet accessibility here in Ras Laffan Industrial City. I live in the company camps, and the LAN connections here are pretty poor. Well poor for someone who downloads a lot and is a serious gamer.

So would like a clear idea of how good a QTel mobile broadband connection (dongle) would be in this area. As in how good the speeds would be, reliability and what would be a good package to go for.

Thanks.

Qtel dongle varies per the price of its connection. I am using the 80 per month which entitles me to "ONLY" 2GB per month of internet usage. They calculate your usage every 18th of the month so be sure to check your usage before the 18th so that you will not incur additional fee. Since you are a serious gamer apply for the "UNLIMITED" data either the wifi or I forgot if they also have a unlimited data for dongles. Some connections are pretty slow sometimes. Just ask the staff for further details on their products.

As a friend I can give you good advise. I have very bad experience with Q-tel connectivity in Raslaffan area.

The Q-tel 3G internet service is very slow and connectivity issue.

You will pay the more but you will not get anything .... if you want to use Q tel Dongle connection in Doha then its Ok but for Raslaffan is not successful.

I have outstanding experience with Vodafone and you can get Vodafone Dongle connection and use the connection in Raslaffan anytime.

The Vodafone company will provide you super faster internet with excellent connectivity.

VODAFONE HAVE EXCELLENT INTERNET CONNECTIVITY IN RASLAFFAN - CHECK FIRST AND THEN APPLY FOR PERMANENT CONNECTION.
