Bahrain releases broadband quality report

The Bahrain Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) said it has released this year’s first quarter broadband analysis report on the quality of fixed broadband retail services offered by licensed ISPs in the country. With this regular report TRA aims to provide consumers with qualitative data on observed quality of service provided by ISPs to allow consumers to understand what performance is likely to be expected from each ISP. TRA will continue to publish quality of services reports on a quarterly basis. During January all monitored services have been upgraded to 2Mbps, as before only Wimax operators were on 2Mbps, in order to allow consumers to more easily compare results. Due to the modification no measurement was reported during January.
