Measured on this block in Apr-Jun 2026 — the ceiling the hotel's WiFi sits under. Shared WiFi, captive portals and per-device caps only make it slower, never faster.

Fixed line vs mobile
| Network | Down | Up | Ping |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fixed broadband — what the WiFi runs on | 35.2 | 36.9 | 17 |
| Mobile — your own SIM | 66.0 | 13.3 | — |
Do not plan on tethering here. Mobile upload (13.3 Mbps) is far below the fixed line (36.9 Mbps) — if the room WiFi fails, your phone is not a working backup for calls.

Outages in Kenya
| Started | Ended | Network | Cause |
|---|---|---|---|
| 29 Jul 2026, 17:15 UTC | 29 Jul 2026, 21:45 UTC | Kenya | power outage |
| 09 Dec 2025, 16:15 UTC | 09 Dec 2025, 20:00 UTC | Kenya | power outage |
Country- and ISP-level outages, not hotel-level. A national outage takes the hotel with it; the hotel's own router failing will never show here.
