About Kuwait’s ISPs

It’s very rare for an Internet Service Provider to divulge their network performance to their customers. That’s why most Kuwaitis rely on friends, word-of-mouth, or go through an excruciating process of trial & error to find out what works for them. —What does a “good connection” mean anyway?

This blog was created to allow users to collaborate, share and compare their experiences with the different ISPs in Kuwait. Please link to this website to encourage more people to contribute, leave your comments, and visit the submission page to learn how to send in your connection information.

    Hi there!
    I was just visiting Kuwait for three weeks and needed some torrent downloads urgently but almost all websites are blocked here in Kuwait and it’s so damn annoying! Thankfully your blog wasn’t blocked somehow and I got to post here, hope you read it soon enough. I need a way around the blockage to download Skype and some other programs. I tried to access various proxy server sites but in vain. Any way out?? Really appreciate your help. Please note I’m no expert at this so it’d be awesome if you could explain terms t
    That would need explanation for a noob…! I’m using Zain’s e-Go internet USB which is claimed to have a 7.2Mbps speed.

    Thanks again,
    Regards,
    Ben.

      Hello Ben,

      Even if I discuss ways in which you could pass the website blocks, you’ll quickly hit your volume cap on your Zain’s internet subscription and end up paying a huge fee. “Unlimited” isn’t really unlimited.

    We use QualityNet DSL at a speed of 8Mbps. We have never faced any problems, really QualityNet are the best ISP!

      I agree, I’m using it on fiber optic after being scammed from Mada Communication and it is the best in kuwait.

      did you get the gaming package? if you got it would you recommend it for gaming consoles such as xbox one and ps4?

    Mada Communications, a real scam, they offer up to 10 mbps wireless internet for one year, when you try it, it is barely 2 mbps, when you ask for a refund .. they wish you good luck getting your money back.

      i can’t see your experience with mada, however, i am a user and where they have poor services they do refund in full. other wise is headache free when it comes to downloading streaming

    Hello guys.. I am kinda stuck between Qualitynet and Mada.. which one should I go for?

  8. Ibrahim Says:

    I have Qualitynet for the past 6 years and they are getting worse in the last 2 years .. Bad customer service .. Poor connections .. They blame the Ministry of communications for their fault!!!?? Recently we have no internet for 3-4 days and they did nothing to fix the situation in our area .. You phone and they promise to fix it but nothing happened yet ..
