Internet in Africa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Internet penetration rates in Africa are low compared to much of the rest of the world. One reason is that much of Africa has depended on slow and expensive satellite links for voice and data communication. However a number of projects are underway to boost internet usage through fiber optic networks.[1]
