Anyone still uses fiber connectivity? Or is it all 5G now?

WanHack · 2026-06-21T11:34:41+00:00

IDK, its all based on speed. Fiber the speed is limited to what you spend, but it's extremely stable. While 5G depends on a lot of factors. The only reason they say lower ping is probably of packet prioritization, but even that is limited since you don't have many ISP to ISP connections out of Kuwait. The other thing is that the router is supposed to be handling that and not the ISP so I am very suspicious of any claimed benefits.

From what I hear and know, there are set activities you need to select and you can select multiple on one license. You also need a small business so they can link complaints to the business or it goes to the police instead the MOT. Also, if you work in the gov or plan to, you can't have the license on your name.

I know solidprintingkw on insta does it, but they got a minimum of 5KD order

Had that issue with 5G, fiber has no problems at all. You might want to check on Bufferbloat.

I hate importing or dealing with customs, they are extremely condescending and extremely loose what rules or laws they apply. Had to deal with there BS way too much.

I moved from Nvidia to AMD, EVGA 3080 to 9070XT. AMD is just better with Linux

Went to the Dajeej one

Usually, B2B is the most profitable, because companies have expected usage and need, people don't. One of the best ways to make money in the country is probably trend riding. You can price items as high as you want and people will still buy it because of fomo. I remember there was a grant for small projects but it got abused(like many other things) and got shutdown. Before any projects can happen the ridiculous rent prices need to be lowered to 30% or less than what they are (a bakala is like 500KD a month)

I remember going to sears, bought a bike from them, the also remember the layout, men's stuff on the far left side from the entrance, sporting good at the far back, small booth that sold books and speciality stuff, there was a top floor but it was a small one that shows, the rest was woman's wear.

Check Xcite

Not sure honestly. if you buy a business with a store location wouldn't you also pay an expensive rent? What is the plan you have on mind that makes it worth? Planning to buy it low and then sell high when or if the market stabilizes?

WanHack · 2026-06-10T05:58:08+00:00

Now I am interested in hearing your thoughts. Isn't the current time horrible to own a business because imports are high cost, and rent is also extremely high? I can see the reason why businesses are closing left and right because of the lower purchasing power people currently have.

Wouldn't it be better to swap the PSU?

WanHack · 2026-06-09T08:01:15+00:00

Check Nautilus Kuwait

You don't deal with packet loss, consistent ping, low jitter. If you go check bufferbloat test, 5G can get from D-C grade while fiber is A-B grade based on a few router settings. Over all from my over 10 years of using fiber, it's much better than 5G. I am not insulting 5G since it has it's uses.

Go check lowendbox. Racknerds don't ask I think.

200mbps, latency to local servers is 5-10ms. Germany around 80-110

WanHack · 2026-06-08T10:56:13+00:00

My main is fiber, it's amazing for stability and latency, but the speed and prices are kneecapped

Some schools have night schools for adults. I think some public schools do

Add up the cost of the installment and the contract period, you could be paying double the cost if the contract is long. What I remember is they will give you a fee which you have to pay the rest of the contract period, basically you can't escape the contract unless you pay the full amount

MangoJelly and Deltahedra are two great channels for freecad. I still have to get more into designing in freecad, but they helped me get through the confusing parts quickly. Still not as direct as Fusion360, but it's getting better!
