Tonfon sold but was it worth it
So, Tonfon (Shoreline Communications) has finally been bought (according to all the rumors going around town) but was it worth the ticket price?
I believe Digicel can make a mint the first day by getting the billing system working correctly (just imagine how much money can be made when you actually collect on all those international calls terminating in Tonga?)
I also believe that the crappy service I've been getting on the Internet access is pretty shoddy, and is really pushing me to the brink of moving this Internet access to the competition's TCC's Data Anywhere service.
For the past three weeks, I have been getting problems where some sites are just not accessible through Tonfon's Internet Service. Over the past couple of days this has degraded to giving me the fastest access to Tonfon's own website (http://www.tonfon.to) with zero speed access to anywhere else (including sites here in Tonga.)
If I use a sites IP address, I can access some of the sites, but that is a stupid solution, and will not work for some important sites. One problem is that some sites just don't work if you only have their IP address, they link to areas within their site by their site name, not IP address. It is obviously a problem if you can't follow links: The web is built on hypertext, the ability to link or connect to other sources of information.
