Gather some friends in your building and get a Vsat.... it would save you $$
on the long run....
 I remember when  it was +300$  for a crumy 128k in leb.... just wait a year
or two you will get the speed that you want... here in ukraine... last year
a 2M down/ 512k up link with 2G data was going to 20$/month + 1$/20megs
extra....  now I have a 512down/128up uncapped for about 35$.... the prices
dropped in less than 6 month ......... I am guessing the same thing will
happen in lebanon... you have to give the corps some time to let them
understand that people are not going to pay $$$ for capped links...
bandwidth is dirt cheap... they are charging you what they think you will
pay.....
